How Do You Usually Wash Your Porsche? Sharing Our Favorite Car Wash Gear

My husband has written an article about car washing again. Please take a look if you’re interested. I’ve written a bit about car washing before, but since our methods and gear have changed somewhat since then, I wanted to update the information. How Often Do We Wash Our Porsche? No matter how many Porsches I own, I still wash them myself. That’s to never forget where I started. Sometimes I ask for a wash at...

Took Photos of Two Porsche 911s in Aventurine Green Parked Side by Side!

Porsche 911 in Aventurine Green Metallic Our home’s 911 Cabriolet (992 model) sports the Aventurine Green Metallic body color. This is a new color introduced with the 992 generation, a beautifully unique shade that’s somewhere between a deep brown and green. Previously, a blog reader (who seems to be a neighbor) left a comment: I drive a 992 coupe in Aventurine Green, so I hope we can meet up someday. Since then, we’ve occasionally spotted...

What Happens When My Paper-Driver Sister Drives a Porsche 911 for the First Time?

My Sister Who Bought a Mini The other day, I wrote an article about my husband’s sister, who, after 20 years as a paper driver, finally bought her first car. The car she chose was a BMW Mini Cooper D (3-door) in a stylish British Racing Green with a white roof. She’s been driving almost every day and taking special lessons from her husband on weekends, even practicing on the Royu Driveway, so she’s gotten...

The Reason You Can Drive a Porsche Long Distance Is Not “Comfort” but “...

Is Porsche Driving About Pleasure? When I’m riding in the Cayenne with my family, my husband and I often have this conversation. Not just the Cayenne, but Porsches in general make you want to keep driving endlessly. Even when I’m on the highway and about to exit at the nearest interchange, I always think, “I want to keep driving a little longer. Maybe I’ll just stay on the highway a bit more.” That’s how it...

Revisiting a Porsche Owner’s Garage House: It’s Basically a Museum Now!

A Porsche Owner’s Meticulously Crafted Garage The other day, I had the pleasure of visiting the garage of a Porsche owner who I often interact with. I had visited once before, but this time my husband had to drop off some car parts, so he kindly asked, “Since we’re going anyway, want to come along?” This owner’s garage is incredibly refined and filled with thoughtful details—a truly wonderful space. In the past, when I thought...

How Car Enthusiasts and Casual Buyers Differ So Much in Choosing Their Cars

A Senior Who Switched to a Flying Spur The other day, I was talking with a senior businessman I’ve known for over 10 years, and he said, “Oh yeah, I just got a new car.” When we first met, he was a big fan of the BMW 7 Series and had been driving one for years, but at some point, he test-drove a Tesla and said, “It was insanely fast,” so he switched to a...

What a Car-Loving Couple Feels After Hosting Weekly Twitter Spaces

Talking About Car Life as a Couple Since the beginning of this year, we’ve been using the audio SNS app Clubhouse to talk about our family’s car life as a couple. Every Saturday at 10 p.m. for about an hour, we held talks about “This Week’s Car Life” and “Blog Afterwords”. However, at that time, Clubhouse wasn’t available on Android, so only iPhone users could listen in. Later, Twitter added a feature called “Spaces” that...

Why My Sister, a Paper Driver for 20 Years, Finally Bought a New Car

My Husband’s Sister Bought a New Car My Husband’s Twitter briefly mentioned this before, but recently my husband’s sister purchased her very first car in her life. She bought a BMW Mini Cooper 3-door model (Cooper D). I saw some photos, and it looked really stylish and cool. However, she’s been a paper driver for nearly 20 years since getting her license, meaning she hasn’t driven at all. Even after delivery, she said, “I can’t...
