You and your wife are blogging together.And, "It's nice to be able to talk about cars as a couple," and "It's nice to be able to share the car hobby with a couple."We often receive messages such as

Indeed... this is how we talk about cars on a daily basis as a couple, run a blog together, and have a weeklyI'm doing a youtube live.I wonder how rare it would be to find such a thing in all of Japan (laughs).

However, I am not a "I've always loved cars.Although some people think that I am a "car person," in reality, I was not interested in cars at all until I met my husband.
."not interestedI was not interested in W at the level of "Ignore," but at a level so close to "Ignore" that it didn't even come close to a millimeter of space in my life at all.

I think life is interesting that I am now running a Porsche blog and talking about cars with my husband on a daily basis.The wives (partners) of those who read this blog could also become car enthusiasts, even now!Maybe it's just a matter of "I don't know..."...

So today, we're going to talk about the "Points to make your wife love cars, especially Porsche.I would like to write about the following. Please note that this does not apply to everything and is only from my point of view.

(1) Have them drive

The first important thing to get your wife to like Porsche (cars) is toTo actually have them drive a Porsche.".

."I'm going to ask you to ride in the passenger seat.It is not."
."You get to sit in the driver's seat and drive.The key point is that "the

I think the most important thing is to actually experience the handling, feeling, and driving of a Porsche by driving one yourself. I actually became interested in Porsche and cars when I test drove a Panamera for the first time at a dealership.

I've told my husband many times, "Do you want to test drive in the future? Would you like to drive?When they say, "TheNo, I'm not going because I'm not interested. I don't need it.I had refused to drive the car, but one day at the dealership, Mr. H, who was in charge of the car, told me, "Since you're going to the trouble, you should drive it, too.

Then, within two seconds of stepping on the accelerator, "What is this car? It is completely different from any car I have ever driven! It is as if my brain and the car are connected!I was surprised and impressed, and from there I fell in love with the Panamera.

So why not the passenger seat?

That's because, in Porsche's case, "Asking people to ride in the passenger seat is often counterproductive.From.

If you are going to ride in the passenger seat, it would be more comfortable and satisfying to ride in a luxurious car, such as a Mercedes-Benz S-Class with plush seats.
Porsche's suspension is stiff, and depending on the road conditions, the car can be very bumpy, and the ride height is low and visibility is poor, so I can't say it is comfortable. (Once you get used to it, you will feel comfortable.)

I was once a passenger in my husband's GT3 in a busy city.

."What a hard and uncomfortable car...!I honestly had a bad impression of it, and even though I already liked Porsche at the time and understood it to some extent, I didn't want to drive it for too long. I was already fond of Porsche at that time, and although I understood it to some extent, I did not want to drive it for a long time.

However, as soon as we entered the highway and I took over driving, I was so excited by the GT3's ability to absorb the road surface and the flatness and stability I had never experienced before, I said, "Wow, this is amazing! I was so excited.

."I knew GT3 was amazing. I guess it's not like this yet! It's amazing!and remained excited for some time afterward.

Porsche is all about driving.
It is important to have your wife drive, anyway.

When taking a test ride, you can use the "No, I'm good. I don't drive.Even though people sometimes say, "I'm not aThink you've been fooled, just drive it once!I think it's a good idea to tell them, "I'm sorry, I don't know what you're doing," and have them drive.

Exactly.one eye-witness is better than many hearsaysIt is.

(2) Experience a convertible car

This will not be limited to Porsche, but the next point I recommend is to have them ride in a convertible.

If you have a convertible at home or have the opportunity to test drive a convertible, we would love to have you ride in one. (Or in this case, maybe even in the passenger seat)

Just the other day, a friend of mine came to visit me at my house and I took him for a short ride in the passenger seat of the Boxster GTS with the roof open, and he was very impressed.

She was not interested in cars at all, and at first she said, "Openness is embarrassing.but after a short run, he said, "I'm not sure I'm going to be able to do it.How nice is it to have a convertible car? I didn't know it could be so wonderful!He was thrilled with the results.

I honestly thought that convertible cars were for people who were in shape and wanted to look cool. Even if I saw one on the street once in a while, I would think, "I guess he wants to be cool.I had only thought, "I'm a good person. But when I actually rode it, I couldn't believe how good it felt...!
It's totally different from my normal car.Running with the wind was crazy! I thought I might be bothered by people's eyes, but I felt so good that it didn't matter anymore. I wanted a convertible car!

(laughter).

."It's all about the convertible.It doesn't mean that "I'm not a good person," and each car has its own advantages.
But still, the appeal of convertible cars is easy to understand.

The details"How about this suspension?" "How about this handling?" "How about this engine?"I believe that after riding for one minute, you will feel the pleasant sensation and experience the extraordinary space without having to tell the passengers how it feels.

(iii) Go for a drive as a couple

It is good to go for a drive alone, but sometimes it is good to go for a drive with your wife.

Of course, if the children are still small, it is difficult for two people to go out together. In our family, our third child has just turned 4 years old, so it is rare for us to go for a drive together as a couple.

But if you are in an environment where you can go toWe should go out together once in a while."I think it would be wonderful to invite the couple to share the same time together through their car.

In a car, strangely enough, many conversations are possible. Sitting in the same space, facing forward and driving together, we can naturally talk about the future and our dreams, which we usually don't talk about at home.

If my husband always enjoyed the freedom of being alone by himself,Hmmm..."You may think, "I'm not going to go," but I think it would still be nice to be invited once in a while, or to be able to go for a drive together as a couple. (They may say at first, "I won't go," but I think they would be happy inside.)

These are the three key points to get your wife to love cars.

However, this is not necessarily all there is to it, and I think it is something that does not go so fast and takes time. I think it depends on the family's situation.

However, I think it would be wonderful if we could share a little about the appeal of cars as a couple, so I hope this article will be of some help.
