This time, I’m diving into a rather niche topic: the correct way to install wheels on our air-cooled Porsche 911 (964 model).

Genuine Porsche Wheel Nuts and Theft-Prevention Nuts The genuine Porsche nuts used on models like the...

Sold My 911 Carrera T After 8,000km: The Story Behind It and My Next Beloved Porsche

At the very end of last year, just before the year closed out, I parted ways with my 911 Carrera T. The mileage was 8,000 km. It was the first Porsche I bought with my own money—my very own Porsche. I was particular about the specifications, and driving it was an absolute joy. I agonized quite a bit before deciding to let it go, but today I want to share the reasons behind that decision...

How Our Family’s Car Choices Have Evolved: Fun Driving, Comfort, or Compactness?

As our children were born and grew up, our car life changed. Before we had kids, my husband drove a sports car he’d owned since his single days, but as our children arrived and grew, our criteria for choosing cars shifted dramatically. Also, my own views and values about cars changed significantly, influencing our later car choices. Choosing cars that fit our family’s changing situation and my evolving values each year. Honestly, I don’t know...

So Glad I Took the Plunge and Bought a Porsche｜Reflecting on 2023 and Goals for 2024

Belated Happy New Year to everyone. I look forward to your continued support this year as well. I started this blog in June 2017. Now that it’s 2024, this June will mark a full seven years of blogging. It feels both like time has flown by and that it’s only been seven years—a strange feeling indeed. Since it’s the start of the year, in this post I’d like to look back on my journey since...

Porsche Owners’ Choice: 2023 Test Drive Car of the Year!

Last year’s announcement of the Test Drive Car of the Year was a big hit (?). In this article, my husband, who regularly gets to drive a variety of cars thanks to readers and acquaintances, will share his top three most impressive cars he test drove in 2023. That said, all the cars were fantastic, so ranking them was quite difficult. Also, please understand that these picks reflect my husband’s personal view, who prioritizes driving...

Test Drive: Porsche 911 Turbo (997)｜The Origin of Turbo’s Dual Nature

Following my test drive of the 987 Cayman, I had the opportunity to drive the 997-generation 911 Turbo, so I’d like to share my report. Porsche 911 Turbo (997) The 997-generation Porsche 911 marked a break from the 996’s teardrop headlights, deliberately returning to the classic round headlights reminiscent of the air-cooled era. I vividly remember when it was first released. Its design evolved from the 993, featuring a nicely rounded body that strongly retained...

Porsche 911 Dakar In-Depth Review [Part 2]: Performance on the Highway and Final Thoughts

Following up on the first part of the article, this time I’d like to share the second part. Highway Performance: Stability and Power Once on the highway, still in the break-in period, I pressed the accelerator a little harder just past the tollgate. As expected from an engine based on the GTS, the power and torque surge impressively from a certain RPM range upward. At low revs, the Carrera actually felt more responsive and quicker,...

The Moment of Delivery: Expectations vs. Reality of the 911 Dakar This time, my younger brother purchased a Porsche 911 Dakar. I accompanied him to pick up the car and then we went on a roughly 900-kilometer grand touring drive together, so this report covers that experience.
