How Has the 718 Cayman T Been After Six Months? (Part 2)

Continuing from the first part, this time I’d like to focus on impressions from winding roads and highways. 718ケイマンTの納車から半年経過してどうだった？（前編） A Mid-Engine Car’s Perfect Cornering Example At home, we have a 981 Boxster GTS and a 992, but the way the 718 Cayman T corners is different from both. Of course, since it’s the same mid-engine layout, it’s closer to the 981 Boxster GTS, but its driving performance far surpasses that. True to its mid-engine nature,...

Why Did I Decide to Buy the 718 Cayman T? Actually, today the brand-new 718 Cayman T was delivered! Originally, I was interested in the base 718 Cayman (the 2-liter model), and as mentioned in my blog article “My Husband Is Curious About the Base Porsche 718 Cayman, So I Asked Him Why”, I wanted a base 718 Cayman for circuit and mountain driving. Some time ago, the dealer’s representative suggested, “How about the 718...

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

Test Drive of the New Supra (6MT)｜How Did a Porsche Owner Feel?

Toyota Supra When I think of the Supra, the A80 model (1993-2002) — the ’80s Supra immediately comes to mind. Its larger body and drastically changed design from the previous generation divided opinions, but I really liked it. I especially admired the rear styling, the taillight design, and the enveloping driver’s seat. That Supra was redesigned in 2019. When I first saw the design in the announcement, I was disappointed, and I was surprised that...

Typical Porsche Owner Story? Why Many Owners Switch from the Latest Models to Their Prede...

Porsche’s Return to Its Roots The other day, my husband was talking about something. He said, “Among the people I know, quite a few buy relatively new Porsche models, gain experience, and then gradually switch to older models or add them to their collection. It’s like a kind of Porsche ‘return to the ancestors’ (laughs). For example, some who drove the latest 991 (992 generation) gradually went back to the late 991, then the early...

From the 981 to the 718 The other day, I was talking with a Porsche owner. He had been driving a 981 Boxster Black Edition (PDK) until recently, but just switched to a 718 Spyder (MT). When deciding to switch from the 981 Boxster to the 718 Spyder, he struggled with various thoughts, but • He wanted to try driving a manual Porsche • He was drawn to the cool design of the 718 •...

What’s the Difference Between the 981 Cayman and 718 Cayman? Which One Suits You?

The other day, I had the chance to borrow a base model 718 Cayman as a loaner. And just about a month ago, I also happened to drive a base model 981 Cayman. This time, rather than a test drive report or review, I want to focus on the characteristics I feel these two 98x-series cars have, and what exactly sets them apart. The 718 and 981 Caymans To be precise, 718 is the model...
