Last week, 2013 Miss World Australia finalist Jesy Pinkerton encouraged more women to give it a go after spending the day with Gavin Little and driving five different Porsches.
Immediately after hopping out of her second car, Ms Pinkerton said it was really hard to take it all in because she was still shaking with excitement.
She said the experience of driving the sports cars had used all of her senses.
But a few hours later, Ms Pinkerton said she could not wait to do it again.
"I had an absolutely excellent day," she said.
"I couldn't get over how different each of car was. I would have to say my favourite would be the Boxster. I also enjoyed the silver Carrera. Overall, it was just brilliant. It gives you a real rush. I highly recommend it as an experience for anybody who wants to come and check it out."
Ms Pinkerton said as long as they could drive a manual, women would enjoy getting behind the wheel of the Porsches just as much as the men.
Only one of the cars is an automatic.
She said the other great thing was two of the cars were convertibles so people could also have the full sports car experience of having the wind in their hair.
"It is different to a normal car because you are more involved in the driving," she said.
"I recommend it to anyone. Hats off to Gav. He runs it really well."
Keeley Williams, 21, was a passenger and particularly enjoyed the two convertibles.
"I loved the feeling of the wind going through my hair," she said.
"Even though it was cold, it was worth it. I have never been a car person and I have never been in a sports car but this was so good. Even just as a passenger, it was really enjoyable and a really nice drive. It was fun. I would do it again in a heartbeat."
