The charm of Porsche 911 that I feel.

Porsche 911 after a long absence

A few days ago,"The reason why I do not want to ride the Porsche 911 or Boxster in my house.I wrote an article.

There is a Porsche that my husband bought in my house, but it was said that he was not riding because he was a car that he cherishes very much.

And the other day, when I went to renew my driver's license.

My husband said, "Why don't you go with 911 GTS?He said.

However, I was planning to go with my own car, Suissepo, so "I go to an unfamiliar place that I only go to once every few years, but I'm scared if something happens, so stop it.I refused once.

Then my husband, who was

"It's okay. The parking lot near the license center is also easy to park normally, so it's absolutely okay. It's a little detour, but if you try running in sports mode through the highway, yeah."

So I decided to take it for the first time in a long time.

The awesomeness of the 911 Carrera 4 GTS

It was the first time in a few months to ride the 911 Carrera 4 GTS on that day, but it was still amazing. In 2 seconds, "This is amazing ...I was so sick (laughs)

And since I got on it for the first time in a long time, I was able to realize the awesomeness of this car, so today I would like to write about that.

First of all, I especially felt "sense of security".

."Protected by the carI had a strong feeling and was really relieved to ride.

Is this because of the strong ground contact, because of the solid suspension, the rigidity, the four-wheel drive, the precise handling ... The overall balance, what makes me think so much? I don't know, butAnyway, it is amazing that you can run with confidence as soon as you get on.

I used to have a sports car from another manufacturer in my house, and I used to drive on highways and general roads, but at that time, I was more fidgety than relieved.

The car was also excellently high performance, rather it was more accurate handling than the Carrera 4 GTS in the early 991, and the body was well made, but "If you don't run with a sense of tension ...There was a fear.

But Porsche is very high performance, but you can rest assured that you will ride any model. The feeling I had when I tried the Porsche (970 Panamera Edition) for the first time in my life was similar.

Porsche drives more often than other sports cars, which may be the reason why he is used to it, but that's not all ...Porsche has something that fits the human senses perfectlyI wondered if it was.

The next thing I felt was "Importance of engine sound".

When you get on the highway and switch to sports mode, the rotation will increase sharply and the engine sound will also rise. Acceleration at the time of merging is powerful and smooth,In proportion to that, the engine sound played from behind was goose bumps.

Like GT3, when it exceeds 4000 rpm, "The sleeping lion awokeUnlike the awesomeness like that, it's more natural ... The engine sound is as if the car is released and happy.

Even if there is this acceleration and this runIf it weren't accompanied by engine noise, I'm sure you wouldn't be able to enjoy this kind of comfort.

Regarding the engine sound, I think that it will change greatly depending on personal preference, and although the engine sound of 911 in the first half of 991 is not a pure mechanical engine sound like an air-cooled Porsche, I like the NA engine sound of the first half of 991. ..

I thought that Porsche is a car that runs with all five senses.

And the third thing I felt was "By switching to sports mode, the fun of running changes"Thing.

If you want to accelerate on the highway while running slowly in the city in normal mode, you can accelerate tremendously, and if you have a car with a sports chrono package, you can set it to sports plus mode and run on the pass. I don't want to have fun.

By changing the mode in this way,You can enjoy different driving depending on the road, and you can get a good deal twice with one car.

It's well done.

When I was driving while feeling such a thing, I arrived at the license center in no time.

On the way back, the highway was under construction and the lane was restricted, so it was almost a tortoise driving ... But I was satisfied because I was able to enjoy the 911 driving for the first time in a long time.

After all, when this happens, I want my Porsche ~ Let's do our best!

    Yes, it's the "five senses"!

    The sound of using 3000 to 5000 rpm while exiting from Tarumi toward Miki.
    The movement of the needle of the tachometer and the vibration transmitted in the tunnel.

    If you feel everything with your five senses, you will be full with one way. .. ..

      I don't think there are many cars that are so fun with the "five senses".

      > If you feel everything with your five senses, you will be full one way. .. ..
      Certainly (laughs) I'm very satisfied with just one way ^^

    By the way, I am in Hong Kong on the 981 Cayman S Manual and my dad on the 991 Carrera S. I buy them second-hand, but if it's a new car, I'm convinced that it's Reasonable to buy GTS if it's enough to put options on S and make it equivalent to GTS.
    On the other hand, is the price difference between S and GTS (Japanese used car market) still worth justifying now that it is only available second hand?
    Since it is a manual group, just adding Sports Exhaust to S is enough to think about the theory.
    (There is a theory that GTS aero is cool! Lol)

    By the way, in Hong Kong, 28cars.com is like a car sensor. 981 is also very popular in Hong Kong, there are 981 clubs, and my friends alone are doing 981 riding and hanging out. It's one of the few pleasures during the corona period.

    I always enjoy looking at your site.
    I joined Classic Car Club HK last winter. Again, take a look at the photos on the web!

      Thank you for your comment!
      The recent soaring price of the second-hand market is amazing, isn't it?
      Regarding the first half of 991 and 981, the engine sound of GTS is still very powerful, and it seems that the sound is different from the type with sports exhaust attached to S.

      The popularity of 981 is deep-rooted even in Hong Kong ^^
      I'm kind of happy, touring with you at 981 is wonderful.

      Also, thank you for seeing the photos!
