Does it have the "Do It Yourself" manual transmission, or the superior "Fully Equipped by Porsche" Automatic Transmission?

928 Owners are ".....a secret sect of quietly assured Porsche pragmatists who in near anonymity appreciate the prodigious, easy going prowess of the 928."![thumbsup](https://rennlist.com/forums/graemlins/bigok.gif)

Its just a first step in the loong process of resurrecting the Porsche GTS dream.
If you look at the dimensions of the 997, its pretty much the same size as a 928 GTS... so Porsche have been subtly shifting the 911 die-hards' opinions until they don't get to say no to the next GT car.
Anyone want to bet against the creation of a 911/997/(998?) GTS, now that "GTS" is added back to their cars?![Smilie](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
Should that happen, I predict the Cayman will get the power plant its so obviously capable of holding, and become the real lightweight performance alternative to the GT car.
Or I could be smoking 928-crack

this part reads well...."405 horsepower. ,,,,,,,,,,,,, It's also outfitted with 21-inch wheels and there are two new colors exclusive to it: GTS Red and Nordic Gold Metallic. A six-speed manual is standard equipment, .........GTS in showrooms in February 2008. US buyers should set aside $69,300 ..."

Porsche must have come across a large stock of forgotten "G" "T" "S" trim letters which have been sitting in the corner of an old warehouse since 1996, that they now need to get rid of. ![Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif)
