Porsche 911: Can elementary school students understand the difference between "late 991" and "992"?

Noticed by the Porsche 992 model car

The day beforeI was taking a picture of a Porsche 992 minicarSo, while writing a blog, drinking wine, I fell asleep ... I fell asleep. picture? Oh, is it always like that? Yes (laughs).

No, that's why the morning came with the miniature car left in the living room.

Sure enough, the children who got up in the morning found the Porsche 992 and said, "What is this!" Since there is no way (?), I will start the lecture from the morning.

"Mom is riding a model called the late 991 model in Porsche 911, but in November of last year a new model called 992 came out. It's a miniature car!"

I explained it to elementary school students. What have you been doing since the busy morning (laughs)?

Can elementary school students see the difference in appearance between 991.2 and 992?

As it was, I was about to start talking about the difference between 991.2 and 992, but suddenly I tried to ask the children "Do you know what is different?"

I used a model car of mule orange, so the interior is almost unreliable because of the construction of the miniature car, so "What is the difference from Mama's car (late 991) in terms of appearance?" I tried to make it a problem.

By the way, before showing the actual 991.2 car, I asked him to look at the 991.2 model car and think about it.

This is difficult because children usually just ride in a car, so I don't think they have seen the detailed design of the car. ??

The answer from the children is ...

First of all, the answer that came out immediately is

• Different colors
• Right-hand drive or left-hand drive is different

It all started with the answer, "It's definitely different from ours" ... (laughs), and then while I was looking closely at the miniature car.

• The previous design is different
• There is a camera in front

It seems that he came to understand "Oh, is this the difference from the new model?"

• There is a red one in the middle of the vertical line behind
• The trunk line looks like a square (← I noticed this after seeing the actual 991.2 car at the end, but I think it's quite amazing that I noticed it at a glance!)
• The inside of the headlights is different (I noticed this is too amazing)

Also, this is not because it is 992, but I thought that I was watching it often.

• There are two mufflers on the left and right (my 991.2 isBeing a sports exhaustSo 2 in the center)
• The foil design is different
• There is no brake caliper (this is a problem with a miniature car, but I noticed it well ~)
• There is no 911 logo on the back (this is also a specification of a miniature car)

For me, "the tail light behind was connected to one line", but I was surprised that it did not come out until the end, but when I thought about it, I saw the car from behind with the brake light on. I was convinced that this was something I didn't notice because there are probably few children. Did you find it when you showed the rear of the actual car?

No, but I was surprised and happy that the children were observing the car more than I really thought.

While quizzing, I actually ran on 991.2 from the middle, but I also noticed that the middle part of the back seat is just right for a 1/43 scale minicar parking lot ^ ^ Cute ↓.

Shooting the new Porsche 911 (992) model car

Well, like this, the mule orange 911 Carrera 4S was in the hands of the children, but since it was a big deal, I took a picture with a single-lens reflex camera before giving it to the children.

picture? What is a miniature car? Well, no, I'm worried about what it will look like in a few months when it's in the hands of children if I don't keep a record when it's beautiful ... (laughs).

The miniature car is also very nice to shoot!

By the way, I took out the 100mm macro lens quite seriously and took a picture (Canon EOS 5D Mark III).

picture? How free are you (laughs)? No, I'm still doing various things, but it's definitely a leisure person ^^

If you come this far, you'll also be shooting the Dolomite Silver Metallic 992 Carrera S! ← After all, obviously a leisure person (laughs).

After taking a picture, I realized that taking a model car was unexpectedly difficult. The sweeter the model car is, the less focused it looks.

But for the time being, I was taking a picture of a model car with a single-lens reflex camera at home ... I thought I had to admit that I was an otaku ^^.

Moreover, it is said that her husband was watching this shooting. I am grateful to my husband for kindly buying a model car for such a suspicious wife (laughs).

Anyway, even the model car is a beautiful Porsche 911.

You can really watch it forever. I thought again that the 992 has a very gentle expression on the front, which makes me smile and smile.

too cute!
