Drive with Porsche 718 Boxster. Too cute!

Racing yellow Porsche 718 Boxster

I'm so excited! !! !!

Excited! !! !!

Somehow, right after I got in the car and started driving, "Oh, the feeling of the seat is different", or because it was a car with a lane change assist that my car does not have, the lower part of the A pillar (side) I'm not used to seeing a red light warning in the car (inside the car, about in front of the mirror)

"Oh, this is how it glows red ~"

First of all, I was distracted by the obvious difference that I saw with my eyes and felt while sitting. The yellow that comes into view is also dazzling (laughs). Unfamiliar racing yellow.

However, when I start running for a while, the next thing I feel is the difference in driving sensation.

Then, after a few minutes, I started to think about various things, such as "Ah, it's different from 911. It's like this."

Already, 10 minutes after I started driving, my blood sugar level has risen, oh, my blood sugar level has nothing to do with it, uh, my blood pressure has risen ...?

What happened?

I don't know, but my feeling is, "Uh, I'm getting more bloody !!!!", so that's why I feel like adrenaline is coming out!

Great, exciting, and exciting.

You might think that's why, but you know what it is! !! (do not know?)

Anyway, I started to get excited, and I felt the excitement that came from the inside, like "Oh, the blood in my body is getting hot".

That's right, me.

I have driven the Porsche 718 Boxster ~! !!

Ah, it was fun ^^! !! !!

718 Boxster is a horizontally opposed 4-cylinder turbo engine

Before I forget this excitement, I would like to write down what I thought.

It was a while ago that I was allowed to ride it, but this blog was written with excitement at that time ^ ^

As always, the feeling I get when driving a car is often a weird feeling, generally like "What? I don't know what you're talking about."

Therefore, it is an impression that I drove the 718 Boxster that I write as I thought, but if you think "I do not know what you are saying", I think that you can think "Yeah, I do not understand", I'm sorry. ^^

For a proper 718 Boxster review, I think it is good to refer to the reviews of professionals. My impression is not a review or a test drive, but a meaningless "impression sentence" as a really amateur, just a Porsche-loving woman thought. n/a.

By the way, this time, due to various circumstances, I had the opportunity to lend a 718 Boxster for my stay.

Therefore, I enjoyed Boxster to my heart's content for two days. Thank you for your happiness. Thank you ^^

First of all, driving the 718 Boxster, the first thing I thought about it.

That is ... "Well, is the 718 Boxster really a turbo engine?"

From my point of view, Porsche is better than the Porsche 911 GT3 which is an NA engine.The 911 Carrera's turbo engine feels like it's flying just by stepping on it lightly.I thought that it was the NA engine that felt a certain amount of "heavyness to move the car" (at low speed).

It's not heavy = slow, it's not the actual weight of the car, it's just a sensation. Of course it was amazing if I stepped on it, so GT3 ^ ^

That's why I imagined that this 718 Boxster would also start lightly with a turbo at the beginning, but in my mind, that "Hmm, this, this, this turbo feeling! I didn't feel it at all when driving at low speeds.

As soon as I started driving, I lost confidence in my knowledge, and when I stopped at a traffic light, I inadvertently searched for "Is the 718 Boxster a turbo engine?" And confirmed it (laughs).

The feeling of acceleration and running by stepping on the accelerator was previouslyCayman who let me rentSimilar to (naturally). I enjoyed the feeling of being able to step on it even in the city.

The other thing that surprised me was that when I stepped on it, I thought the accelerator was close to the floor.

With the 911, the accelerator pedal doesn't touch the floor unless you step on it more, but the distance that the accelerator touches the floor is so great that you think, "Well, have you already touched the floor? I felt it was shorter than the 911.

is that different. Is it because of your mind?

Therefore, after driving this, Boxster always seems to be a stepping method close to solid stepping, so I thought that it is necessary to be careful when riding after 911 ^ ^

No, but anyway, the more I ran, the more excited I was, and it was so much fun!

Boxster barks

Oh yeah, the sound was lower than 911, or it seemed like it was barking "Garurururu".

I only run with the sports exhaust always on, but I never thought that the engine sound of the Porsche 911 Carrera was "something barking".

But the 718 Boxster feels like barking. It's just "barking". It feels like it's rolling. I'm barking.

So, uh, do you understand? Hmmm, I understand (laughs)! who!

718 Boxster PDK,Sports response buttonThere was also, so of course I pushed it. I love this. It's too fun.

Press the magical 20-second button, fully open the accelerator and bring it up to 7,000 rpm +, and the speed at that time is ... "What?".

Yes, it didn't come out more than I expected.

However, it's kind of fun regardless of the speed at which it appears in real life. Anyway, it was fun. That is Boxster. (Too unclear)

This is because the engine sound that barks at this bass makes you feel the acceleration feeling higher than the actual speed (speed), or it makes me think that "it may be really fast". I thought it might be because they gave me.

No, it's fast enough! But even more than that, I felt that it made me feel faster (than it actually was).

After that, I was able to switch to sports mode and feel a turbo feeling when a certain speed came out.

I think that running on the 718 Boxster was just fun for me in sports mode. I also enjoyed Sport Plus, but I liked Sport mode more.

Also, when driving in a crowded city, even in sports mode, the low-pitched barking sound of "Garururu" is annoying, so in such a crowded city, normal mode is just right for me. Was it good?

I was wondering if I liked the noisy car, but to be honest, I couldn't keep listening to the "barking sound" of this 718 Boxster.

Of course, it's not a bad sound!

I think that the sound of the car has a "favorite sound" that suits each person and does not suit, and in my case I can enjoy the sound of the 718 Boxster at high speeds, but at low speeds. I felt like I would get a little tired in the city.

Here again, it was a day when I realized that I like the sound of Porsche 911.

No, or firstI got used to the sound of 911So maybe I just started to think so? I don't know about this area anymore (laughs).

Oh yeah, and this Boxster sports chrono watch was white. It's cute, but when I actually drive it ...

Do you understand?

At night, this white light reflected off the windshield, which made me quite anxious. So, when I had the opportunity to choose a sports chrono in the future, it was a very good experience for me to decide not to whiten it (because I'm curious).

Since it's about me, I'm just not used to it, so maybe I'm just worried because I've been more concerned about it ^^

Porsche's open car is the best

and. And and.

Speaking of Boxster, that's right, it doesn't make sense if you don't do this. That is ... yes, "open the hood"! !! !!

Actually, until now, I had only had the experience of sitting in the passenger seat of an open car, so I thought "open car is fun! Great!" The feeling is certainly fun and I like things that are open, but if it's my car, it doesn't have to be open. "

But.

By driving Boxster this time, there was something big, big, and different in me. A really big change. For me.

that is…

"Open car is the highest!"

Yeah, from the experience of running this Boxster open, I suddenly shook off this feeling of "open car, really good!".

The more simple it is, the easier it is to understand (laughs), but the fun of "an open car that you experience in the passenger seat" and "an open car that you drive yourself" is hundreds of times different.

What's the difference? Yeah, I don't know that (Tekito).

But it's definitely different. When I opened it up with my own driving and ran, I got "Wow, what's this, it's so much fun! It's too fun! I want to open it immediately!"

Even when I parked in the parking lot of a convenience store, I took a commemorative photo with the hood closed ...

Furthermore, even with the hood open, I took a commemorative photo and said, "Well, the roof is too big," he said, even though it wasn't his own car (laughs).

Really, really, it was a lot of fun to drive in this open.

Even after I got home, I was very excited

"Open car is really good! Maybe I want an open car .... No, I want it. I want an open car!"

I started making noise, but my husband was very calm again

"I should have recorded the conversation when I was coldly (Rika-chan) saying,'You don't have to open the roof, right?'"

I was told (laughs). I'm sorry, my opinion will change soon. I regret it. Hahaha. ← I haven't reflected on it as usual.

But because it was really good! !! I think this was something you wouldn't know until you experienced it. It wasn't a test drive for tens of minutes, but the fun of driving an open car that I realized because I was able to ride it for two days.

I was the air owner of 718 Boxster

Even though it wasn't my car, just looking at it coming out of the parking lot made me feel excited, saying, "Oh, Boxster, I'm here. Let's open the hood again and run ~ ^^".

Completely, for two days in my mind, I feel like I was the owner of this 718 Boxster (I'm sorry, the real owner ^^).

This ↓, the child took it, but it is completely pretending to be the air owner of 718 Boxster (laugh). Even at this time, the inside of my head is "Ah, Boxster, the highest."

By the way, it's a photo of waiting for a traffic light, so I'm holding the steering wheel with both hands while driving ~ ^^

As an air owner, Boxster'sNico at the doorAlso confirmed. Oh, cute, cute.

I was just thereLamborghini UrusIt is a two-shot shooting without permission.

"Well, it's okay to be a yellow companion ~", and I was very satisfied with the feeling of being an owner again.

The car I rented makes me feel like an owner and entertains me. I'm sorry ... ^^

Ah, as an air owner, there was only one problem, "This is ...".

That is, when I opened the door after it was raining, this "water (rainwater) drips from this part of the hood ... and it messes up and falls" ↓

Is this just this individual? Or is this the 718 Boxster or Porsche cabriolet type? ??

Just when I got in and out of the car, the water that came dripping hits me, so I always said "Wow". Well, Boxster was so cute that even such a thing seemed playful. Already blind.

No, Boxster is really "cute"!

I wonder, Cayman was very good at Cayman, but it seems that there is a lot of "cute !!" feeling that I did not feel at the time of Cayman.

Because the color was yellow? Because it's open? Is Cayman "cool" and Boxster "cute"?

Anyway, for me, the 718 Boxster was a car that I couldn't help but feel adorable in terms of its running, appearance, and feeling when riding.

It was so lonely to give it back to the real owner (I'm sorry to borrow it).

It was really nice to have the Porsche 718 Boxster's (arbitrarily) air owner experience. Boxster was insanely cute. I loved it too much ^^

And anyway, the first thing I noticed was "An open car that can be opened and closed automatically if Porsche's speed is 50 km / h or lessIs too great. " This was awesome! !!

Thank you very much for experiencing 718 Boxster ^ ^
