Comments.

This is the fourth installment in a regular series of comments I receive from readers. There is a lot of useful information in the comments I receive every day, much of which I myself do not know. I would like to share some of them with you.(Please note that the comments have been slightly edited for context and excerpted where necessary.)

Readers' comments

1. Panamera Hybrid

970 plug-in hybrid
The 970 plug-in hybrid exceeded my expectations.I would like to see a little more range with the motor.I would like to see it turn a little more, but the 971 seems to have more range on the motor than the 970, and with the option of rear axle steering, it seems to be able to turn a little more. It's early days, but I'm looking forward to my next change now.(Ishi B.)

971 Panamera E Hybrid: SN to Ishi B.
I know the 971 has a longer range in E-mode.Assuming you run with only E, you're actually limited to about 30 km.I think it's a good choice for neighborhood shopping, but it's not enough for a trip around the neighborhood. I use E mode for shopping in the neighborhood, Hybrid auto mode for going to and from work when there is traffic or it is somewhat crowded and I have no choice but to go with the flow, and Sports or Sports+ mode when the roads are clear and I can push a little harder.(SN)

[Ishi B. to SN.
So far I have been driving in normal mode without selecting E-power or E-charge for city driving. 971 is 30km with motor only, I envy you.My 970 is 16 km.Still, the distance is enough for my daily commute, so I am waiting for the charger to be installed so I can fully charge the battery every day and run on E-power alone.
I sometimes put it in sport mode on the highway, but basically in normal mode. Now I enjoy moist driving more than sporty driving.(Ishi B.)

2. Porsche water temperature gauge

The story of your husband's Boxter water thermometerwas very helpful.My CARRERA always has a water temperature gauge that swings a little to the right of center. In terms of temperature values, it is exactly around 90 degrees Celsius.Usually domestic cars are designed to stabilize at 85°C, and 85°C is often indicated in the center of the water temperature gauge, so if the needle is vertical, the water temperature is normal, and such is the setting, but my CARRERA is slightly tilted to the right as mentioned above.
I was a bit alarmed that this could be some kind of cooling system malfunction or that the thermostat or water pump would go away in the near future due to age, but I am a bit relieved. Thank you very much.(shimoyannjp)

3. Driving position for MT vehicles

I drive a red Boxster GTS (MY15) right manual transmission and always enjoy reading your blog. I found your blog through a Boxster GTS owner's blog when I took delivery of my first MT in 15 years and I have back pain.
Introduction of "Sazaki's Clutch Work" w/ lower back pain.
When you can start idling by operating the clutch with your heels on, traffic jams are not hard at all, and you can start off as easily as with an AT.
We use idling start and momentary gas pedal stimulation as appropriate.(Lorinzer7)

 4.718

[718 Boxster
."718 and air-cooled ride similarI agree with you intensely (laughs). I agree with you very much. In my case, it's the Boxster. The sound quality is also good. And the PDK was superb. Personally, I like MR cars, which are handling machines, but Porsche is still great in making high power RR cars available to everyone.(Mr. Loompa)

718 Cayman MT
I think that with the PDK version, the sport chrono is almost mandatory because of the difference in shift timing, and with the MT, the car can be driven briskly in town in normal mode, and even more so with the sport mode.(PorscheDreamer)

5. Panamera 4 Sport Turismo

My car is also a Panamera 4 Sport Turismo, also in Carrara White. It was delivered last April.I am replacing a Panamera 4S (970) that I drove for 7 years, with about 4.5 million options. It is mostly for family trips. The kids are small so the +1 in the back seat helps.
Compared to the previous 4S, I don't get the same sense of acceleration as the Don, but I think it is more fun to drive as a sports car. I had not thought about the fact that two 3/4" suitcases would not fit in the car. The information is very helpful, which I would not have known without actually trying it.(neriten)

6. Orbis warning

You can use the app on your phone to call "Orbis warning". As far as using(Shikoku, Kobe - Tokyo area)The only drawback is that the phone battery runs low when using GPS. The only drawback is that the smartphone battery runs low when using it with GPS. Most of the time I use it while supplying power from a cigarette lighter socket.(vonvoyage32)

7. Shikoku Touring

I drive a 981 Cayman S and I live in Shikoku, so I am quite frequent.Minami Awa Sunline, Yokonami Skyline, Cape Sada Melody LineWe have been to Shikoku has many roads that are fun to drive, including scenic roads along the sea and mountain passes. Please visit us again. (Mr. ijnuj)

8. Air-cooled 911 (964C2)

I enjoyed reading your husband's air-cooled report... I still personally prefer the sound of the exhaust to that of a modern sports car.I love air-cooling, where you can hear the sound of engine cylinders scraping and oil circulating in the air.It's a handsome ♡(Ingenieur)

9. Porsche on the circuit

As you know, I recently went to Suzuka for the first time and it was a wonderful course. It was a wonderful course, but it was also terrifying. As you wroteThe beauty of Porsche is that it can be used for both daily life and sports driving such as circuit racing.I️.(cara)

10. Negroni

Negroni shoes, it seems that they also make shoes for women at the factory's order session. If you have a chance to travel to Tokyo, that is.(ivy, etc.)
