I, for one, am waiting for the non-PDK, non-manual, non-turbo, no vertical slats, non-water cooled, Corvettes are still faster and cheaper, autonomous, electric 911 that I can ride around in while sitting in the back seat. And at 5'5ish I can actually fit in the back seat.

Did I miss anything?

I think the only thing you may have missed is left foot braking with PDK. I think that other thread about PDK vs. Manual needs a new diversion or it may die. So I'm putting on my helmet and Nomex to see if anyone over there bites. Then, I'm taking my meds and going to bed. Oh, the question of the occasional left foot stab at the brakes with a manual trannie should probably be on the playlist as well- so everyone can participate!

I chickened out. I've had too many close calls with RPG's to want another one through my bedroom window. Or God forbid, my garage, where both a manual and PDK 911 reside.
