Go for it, MT girls!

It has been a week since I took delivery of my BMW 320i.I have been driving the car almost every day since delivery, so I have become quite accustomed to driving it.The car no longer stalls, and it no longer slides down hills. Even on gentle slopes where auto hold does not work, I can now start off without being rushed.

So far, I have been to Harborland in Kobe, rode the Hanshin Expressway, and visited a neighborhood convenience store and a supermarket with a hard-to-park parking lot.

That said, I can't say I'm a good MT driver yet, "but I'm still a good driver."At least I can drive now.The level of "I'm not sure. So, perhaps, if you get on a roll now and try to drive a GT3 or a Boxster.I'm sure it won't work out again, and you'll end up with deep emotional scars.It is obvious that...W

To use a Dracula analogy, I would like to defeat more enemies and level up before taking on a boss.

Let's go to Ashi Ari to see the night view.

One night, I took my daughters to the bath early. Since I had given my daughters an early bath and still had some time left, I decided to go to Ashiu to see the night view. The last time I went there, I couldn't see the night view because I was blocked by the god of the mountain.I feel like I'm kind of on the verge of outgrowing the rain woman these days.So, I felt that "it would be safe to go and see it today.

I took the 911 to see the night view of the Ashiu Driveway.

Or rather, I have been blessed with more and more opportunities to enjoy the weather lately. On second thought.Since I bought myself a BMW 320i, the touring and the delivery day are properly sunny!I feel like I've come a long way. ."Get your own MT carI wonder if the touring mountain gods would have approved of this... I don't think so.

I didn't want the water to get too cold for the night view, so I put jackets on my daughters and my husband just in case.I'm going to Ashiari now to see the night view.I texted, "I'm sorry," and got into the 320i.

On the way from my home to Ashi Ari.Excellent practice route for hill startsIt is. There are many subtle hills where auto hold does not work, so it was good practice to apply the clutch and start without slipping off.

As expected at this time of the day, there were few cars and we arrived at the Ashiu Driveway toll booth in good order.

Suddenly, I looked at the thermometer posted just beyond the tollbooth and saw a sign that read14 degreesI was relieved to see that it didn't look that cold. I drove the car leisurely, feeling relieved that it didn't seem that cold.

Since I came all the way to Ashiyu Driveway, and since I was driving a MT car, it would be fun to rev up the engine and make it bellow, but unfortunately, I don't have that level of skill yet.2nd gear → 3rd gear → 4th gear → 3rd gear → 2nd gearHe ran carefully, repeating "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

Moreover.Ashiu has quite a few cat's-eyes.I had a history of a friend of mine who came to Ashiu for the first time in a Ferrari 488 Spyder and inadvertently stepped on a cat's eye, damaging his tire, so I drove carefully not to step on the cat's eye...The more careful you are, the closer you get to the cat's eye.I guess it's a thing (laughs).

This 320i is a bare-bones grade, not a sporty model, and to be honestIt's not like, "Let him run in Ashiu, that's what he needs to do."I think it is a good choice. The ride is soft and comfortable, and it is suitable for a relaxing ride with the family. However, even when I rounded a curve in AshiariOooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!There was no big "roll" and I was able to drive safely and without discomfort.

East Rokko Observatory and my car

When we arrived at the East Rokko Observation Deck, several cars were already parked. The night view was... well, it was on the beautiful side, so I was happy.

And here I checked my email on my phone and got this reply from my husband.

Eh, I was just taking pictures in Ashiu too! I just arrived home. I wish I had seen your email a little earlier!

And.

Seriously, seriously! Well, now that you mention it...I was on the GT3 touring to work today, so I had to stop by Ashiari on the way home.I wonder how much they look like each other. I mean, how much like a married couple are they (-_-) lol

We watched the night view and wandered around the observatory for a while, but it was getting a little cold, so we decided to leave the observatory after about 10 minutes. On the way back to the2nd gear → 3rd gear → 4th gear → 3rd gear → 2nd gearI drove carefully," he said, "but I realized once again that I am insanely bad at downshifting.

If you slow down your speed and downshift carefully, you'll be fine.When I try to drive a little crisply, I immediately get shift shock.It would be cool if I could do a heel-and-toe or something like that at a time like this!I have to practice every day, aiming for the day when I can heel and toe in a spectacular manner!Right.

When I got home, my husband showed me the pictures of the GT3 Touring that he had taken that day.

It's so beautiful......as expected, α7Ⅲ is different.With an iPhone, it is quite difficult to get a good shot of a car with a night scene.Now I would love to go to Ashiu with my husband in the 320i and have him take pictures of my car. I hope that when we do, we can drive through Ashiu much more smoothly!
