■ New 911 lineup suggested retail price

Such "new Porsche 911 (992)" was officially announced in Japan, and on this day in Japan, we received the news that Porsche 992 will be on sale at Porsche authorized dealers from Friday, July 5, 2019.

I think it was a dream that I still really feel, I don't have, but I wanted to meet, I wanted to meet, I wanted to meet, the new Porsche 911, yes, Finally, the model 992, which is the 8th generation of Porsche 911! !!

I've met you ~ ^^!

I can cry (tears).

Impressed.

Was cute.

It was so cute! !! !! !!

No, of course, it is "cool" as Porsche 911, but the expression of this 992 is really too cute depending on the angle.

Do you understand the "Kyoton" feeling of this 911? This is irresistibly cute ^^ ↓

I don't know what it is, it's more like a squeezing expression than 991, or even more (depending on the angle) than before, it's really "pure cuteness". I think there is.

The new 911 Timeless Collection -New 911 Japan Premier-

This time, the event that made me meet this latest Porsche 911, 992, is the press release of the new Porsche 911 at "TRUNK BY SHOTO GALLERY" attached to the trunk hotel in Shibuya, which is now a hot topic. "New 911 Timeless Collection" held on the same day.

This is the Japan premiere event of Porsche 992, which was unveiled for the first time in Japan, in collaboration with the apparel brand Hugo Boss and Porsche.

This is the image of the invitation ↓ Already, this alone is already too cool! * There was also an invitation card (design) with a different design.

You may have heard the name Hugo Boss, but this is a German brand.

According to Wikipedia, Hugo Boss is a brand founded in 1923 by Hugo Ferdinand Boss in Metzingen, Germany.

Hmm? Ferdinand?

Oh, the same as Mr. Ferdinand Porsche, the founder of Porsche! In this way, from the founder level, it is a collaboration of such two wonderful German brands that seems to have a connection ^ ^

HUGO BOSS had previously partnered with Mercedes-Benz. However, from 2019, HUGO BOSS will partner with Porsche in Formula E Racing.

From December 2019, Hugo Boss will supply clothing worn by racers etc. in Porsche races, and it seems that the race will include not only Formula E but all works race activities.

Furthermore, the "Porsche x BOSS Collection" has been launched for the general public, and the design is based on the corporate colors of Porsche and Hugo Boss, silver and black, and red. Already on sale at each store online.

There was also such a fashionable image. You can see where and what kind of image each of them is inspired by.

Porsche 992, the venue for the first domestic debut

Now, in the timeless world created by the collaboration of these two wonderful German brands, the new Porsche 911 was unveiled to the general public for the first time in Japan.

As mentioned above, the venue is "TRUNK BY SHOTO GALLERY" in Shibuya.

When I approached the trunk gallery just before the opening at 19:00, many people had already gathered there, and some people were told that the 911 event was here.

Since this event was a complete invitation system and alcohol was provided, it was necessary to show an invitation card, name confirmation, and an ID card that can confirm the age at the entrance to enter. (Each can be entered by a total of 2 people, an invitee + 1 companion).

When you enter the venue, the atmosphere is like this. Pink image.

The welcome drink that was prepared was also a pink cocktail based on pink grapefruit.

The one like a champagne glass contains alcohol, and the one like a wine glass is non-alcoholic.

In addition, draft beer, wine, whiskey, etc. are also available, as well as finger food and desserts.

There was no mention of what the event would be like for this day's event, so I decided to do it myself.

"There is a 992 hidden in a veil in the center of the venue, and a runway is made in front of it, and the Hugo Boss collection is first shown there. After that, Porsche 992's Unveil !!"

I was wondering if that was the flow. I imagine too much (laughs).

However. that?

Looking at the back of the venue, I can see Porsche somehow. e? Maybe that?

so! Porsche 992 was usually stopped on the spot as a matter of course ^ ^ No, it's already a feeling of familiarity at once.

You can see it ~. I'll see you ~. Then, I got closer and was impressed.

This may be the first time I was excited to put the first welcome drink on the table at such an event without drinking it (laughs). ← After enjoying Sanzan 992, I got it properly ^ ^

I was able to meet more easily than I expected, and I couldn't get inside the car, but I was really happy to be able to meet the new 911 so carefully from the distance I could touch.

1 more time. I was really happy.

... No, not enough. Already, really, really, really happy ~ (crying).

Thank you very much to Hugo Boss and Porsche Japan for giving me such an opportunity to be too happy. I'm just grateful (crying).

… And there are so many things I want to write, and it's going to be long, so I'll continue on the next blog ^^
