Surprised by How Much a Porsche Tests the Driver’s Skill! Test Driving the Porsche 986 Bo...

This time, on the Royu Driveway, I had the chance to test drive the 986 Boxster S, 6-speed manual, which my husband previously introduced on the blog. Featuring a mid-engine layout, 252 horsepower, and a compact, lightweight body, this adorable Boxster really stands out. In conclusion, it was a “Porsche that truly reflects the driver’s skill.” This is exactly the kind of car where the driver’s technique directly shows in how the car performs. It...

For the Passionate Porsche Enthusiasts: Exploring the Charm of the 986 Boxster

Porsche Boxster 986 Model I truly adore the 981 Boxster GTS, but this time, I was fortunate enough to get behind the wheel of its ancestor, the first-generation 986 Boxster. The body color is a silver that appears to be Arctic Silver. The interior is a terracotta leather, a reddish-orange hue reminiscent of the Carrera GT—truly stunning. Both exterior and interior are in excellent condition, with only about 40,000 kilometers on the clock. This is...

Finally Meeting My Dream Porsche Driver After Five Years!

Sapphire Blue Boxster, Mr. Wata The other day, after about five years of wanting to meet him, I finally got the chance to meet someone I had admired for a long time. His name is Mr. Wata. After running an Alpina blog, he now operates the Porsche Boxster blog, “Wind & Light, Boxster.” Mr. Wata’s beloved 981 Boxster has an incredible current mileage of 230,000 kilometers (and it’s probably even more by now). In Japan,...

Porsche Ride Comfort Changes Dramatically with Tire Pressure Settings｜Check Yours Now

Running this blog gives me plenty of opportunities to drive many Porsches, and lately, I’ve almost always been able to guess the tire pressure correctly. While I can’t pinpoint it down to 0.1 bar, if the pressure is just a bit high or low, I can tell after driving just a few dozen meters. Recently, I’ve driven models like the 992, Carrera S, Macan Turbo, and 992 Turbo S, and have given advice on tire...

Rediscovering the Ultimate Joy of Driving the Boxster

　 A Long-Awaited Drive in the Boxster The other day, I had the chance to drive the Porsche Boxster (981 Boxster GTS) again after quite some time. Recently, I’ve mostly been driving the Carrera T delivered at the end of May, but one day my husband came home in the Boxster and said, “This is truly fun! It’s just too much fun!” He spoke about its joy as if it were the delivery day all...

How to Break In Your Porsche

Recently, my wife finished the break-in period for our newly purchased 992 Carrera T, and now we are in the process of breaking in the 718 Carrera T. I’ve mentioned break-in driving several times in past blog posts, but this time I want to share our approach and philosophy on break-in driving, including some new insights we’ve gained since then. Is a break-in period necessary for Porsche? Nowadays, many manufacturers claim that break-in driving is...

Test Drive of Porsche 718 Cayman and 718 Boxster T: What Makes the 718 ‘T’ Different?

The other day, I had the chance to drive both the 718 Cayman (base model) and the 718 Boxster T, so I’d like to share my reviews of each and report on their differences. 718 Cayman (Base Model) First up is the base model 718 Cayman. This particular car had almost no sporty options and was the most basic 718 Cayman. I’ve reviewed the 718 Cayman several times before, but this time I want to...

This was the main destination of this touring trip. The Ibusuki Skyline starts from Taniyama IC, and after paying the 100 yen toll, traffic thinned out significantly. From the occasional viewpoints along the way, the majestic Sakurajima volcano peeked through. Some parts of the road...
