Patisserie Sadaharu Aoki Paris Atelier Karuizawa Store
The other day, I went for a drive to a certain place while doing some shopping.

Where did I go? To Karuizawa.
For more details, see the 'Patisserie Sadaharu Aoki Paris Atelier Karuizawa Store"is.
Huh?
Even though there are plenty of Sadaharu Aoki stores in Tokyo, why did I, someone who also lives in Tokyo, go all the way to his store in Karuizawa?
The reason is...
This is what the Karuizawa store looks like right now! ↓

Did you understand?
Yes! !!
My main purpose for this drive to Karuizawa was to see a car parked quietly (or so it seemed) in front of this shop.

This is apparently Sadaharu Aoki's car, and it's a Porsche Taycan 4S Cross Turismo.

And apparently, it's even a Sonderwunsch version!
* "Sonderwunsch" is a program that allows various customizations of Porsche vehicles for individual Porsche owners. The meaning of "Sonderwunsch" is "Special request."

I thought it would be a rare opportunity to see a Sonderwunsch Taycan up close, so I went to meet the Taycan that day.

Incidentally, a Sonderwunsch Taycan is parked at this Patisserie Sadaharu Aoki Paris Atelier Karuizawa store, and it is possible to see it.Porsche Center Nagoya's InstagramI learned about it from that post.


A post from June 2026 states that "you can see this special edition Taycan at Atelier Karuizawa for about the next six months, until the autumn leaves season," so if you're planning a trip to Karuizawa sometime before the autumn leaves season, why not visit Patisserie Sadaharu Aoki Paris Atelier Karuizawa to see the Sonderwunsch Taycan?

Incidentally, when I peeked inside the car through the window, I noticed that Mr. Aoki's signature was also on the headrests and armrests.
It had rained that day, and the reflections on the glass made it a little hard to see in the photos, but I could see it with my own eyes. The interior had calm colors that matched the olive body color perfectly, and it was very beautiful.

There are plenty of charging facilities too.

The parking lot happened to be empty, so when I left, I was able to take a photo of my yellow GT3 next to it. I was so happy.

Oh yes, there were also several Karuizawa-exclusive items in the store, so it might be fun to go and check those out as well.

After this, since we're in Karuizawa, we'll have some soba noodles...
I took a photo with Tsuruya-san's crane before heading home.
Here's Tsuruya's crane! ↓

Thanks to Patisserie Sadaharu Aoki Paris, I had a reason to drive to Karuizawa, and I also got to see a wonderful Taycan, making it a delicious and enjoyable little trip.

Thank you ~ ^^
