AMG G63 The other day, when we visited my husband’s family home with the kids, I noticed a new AMG G63 (W464) parked in the driveway. It was recently purchased by my brother-in-law. He kindly said, “Why don’t you take it for a spin?” so after finishing our errands at the house, my husband and I decided to give it a try. This G-Class has attracted a lot of attention as it is the first...
Test Drive of the 718 Boxster GTS In yesterday’s article, I wrote about how frustrated I was not to be able to test drive the 718 Boxster GTS. If you read today’s article, you’ll understand exactly why I felt that way. Back in February, my husband rode shotgun in a friend’s 718 Boxster GTS, but 718 ボクスター GTSと、981 ボクスター GTSの乗り比べ。 this time, thanks to the owner’s kindness, I was able to take it for a...
Got to Ride the 718 Boxster GTS!? One Saturday in February, my husband’s acquaintance took delivery of a 718 Boxster GTS, so my husband arranged to meet at the Higashi Rokko Observatory on the Royu Driveway and promised to get a ride. “Since it’s a special occasion, Mina, why don’t you come along too?” he said, so I asked my mother-in-law to watch the kids well in advance and eagerly looked forward to the day....
Before Buying a Panamera Originally, I started this blog because I absolutely love the Panamera. Nowadays, I also write about other Porsche models, but when I first started, I was writing about the Panamera every single day, without fail, haha. Recently, I’ve been getting more comments on my past Panamera articles, and many readers have said things like, “I didn’t know that about the Panamera! I’m glad I found out beforehand.” So, I decided to...
S63 vs Panamera In a recent article, I shared my thoughts on owning the AMG S63 Coupe, but this time I want to write about comparing the Panamera Turbo and AMG S63 Coupe. メルセデス・ベンツAMG S63 4MATIC クーペ （C217）を所有してみた感想 However, regarding this comparison, my husband said, Since we have the experience of owning both the Panamera Turbo and AMG S63 Coupe, I wanted to share my impressions comparing the two… but honestly, these two cars have...
Goodbye, S63 Coupe Since its delivery last April, I haven’t really introduced the AMG S63 4MATIC Coupe (C217) much on the blog. This model was released in 2014 and we bought it used. 夫がS63AMGクーペを買ってきた−納車後の夫の感想は？ We usually kept this S63 parked at my husband’s workplace, so it hasn’t been driven much, but unfortunately, he has decided to part with it now. So, taking advantage of the opportunity, including a recent drive together on the Royu Driveway,...
Panamera Recall The other day, I received a letter from Porsche Japan regarding a recall for the 971 Panamera. Upon opening it, I read: “Due to improper programming in the electric power steering control unit, steering assist may be lost while driving. This could result in increased steering effort.” That said, I had never noticed any such issue before, so I thought our Panamera was probably fine. Then, Mr. H from the Porsche Center promptly...
Roperaio’s Review of the Panamera Turbo The other day, my husband said, “There’s a Panamera Turbo review on Roperaio’s YouTube channel!” and immediately started watching the nearly 40-minute video. As soon as he finished, he said this: “Hmm… I get what he’s saying, but it’s not quite right. It feels like there wasn’t enough prep beforehand, and the power and handling of the Panamera Turbo weren’t really evaluated enough, so the true greatness didn’t come...
Finally, a Chance to Drive the 718 Cayman The other day, I went to our local Porsche Center, where we always get great service, to have the speakers in our air-cooled 911 replaced. And to my surprise, they lent me a 718 Cayman as a loaner car! That morning, after dropping off my daughters at their respective daycare centers, I headed to the Porsche Center. Upon entering the showroom, right in front of me was...
Husband Researches the GT3 The other day, my husband quickly ordered a 911 GT3 Touring (991.2), but even after that, he keeps gathering information at home by reading online reviews and magazines about the GT3 Touring. I think, “Since you already ordered it, isn’t it a bit late to keep researching?” but then I remembered that before the delivery of our 971 Panamera, he was also ordering and thoroughly reading magazines about the Panamera and...
