I agree with the article. I prefer a manual for the pure enjoyment of driving. I understand the paddle shift is better for a few tenths on the track, but I am not a pro race car driver and never will be. I still can not grasp the concept that the GT3 of all cars is only available in PDK. I was going to buy a new GT3 as a retirement gift to myself for over 20 years in the Air Force, but not now. Even the new Turbo is only PDK. In my opinion Porsche has lost it's way. Porsche use to be the motoring rebel, but now they just like Ferrari, and Nissan. My loyalty and money will be looking at the Aston Martin Vantage.

Good luck with Aston. There cars haven't changed for a while although they look good. Also there have been no changesin that 510 hp motor they've been pushing.

Also I would hazard to guess that although they have found a new investment group to dump more money in....it's the fact that they really haven't had the funds to build or purchase a dual clutch transmission for their cars rather than a philosophy of providing more driver involvement that has kept their cars with the manual - even though they do have a crappy auto.

How about this for something a little more raw than the 991 GT3:
