My Husband Still Feels the Thrill Every Time He Drives Our 6-Year-Old Porsche Boxster GTS

The 6th Year of Our 981 Boxster GTS Our Boxster just passed its second inspection this November.

That said, he rarely...

Real Impressions from Porsche Owners: Experiences with the 718, 981, 970 Panamera, and More

Still, we obviously haven’t driven every model, so there’s a lot we don’t know or understand about Porsche. Among the many comments we receive from Porsche owners on the blog, it’s always enlightening to read things like, “Ah, so that’s...

What Happens When I, a 981 Boxster GTS Driver, Take the 718 Boxster GTS for a Spin?

718 Boxster GTS About a year ago, I had the chance to drive a friend of my husband’s 718 Boxster GTS (MT). However, at that time, I wasn’t very confident driving a manual car, so my husband warned me on the spot: Mina, better not. You’ll break the clutch.

And because the Panamera has been parked for a while at a spot a bit farther from home, it hasn’t seen much use recently. However, to avoid the battery dying, the other day we decided, “Maybe we should swap the...
