I almost went over to the dark side and considered a PDK. I saw the light though and went with a 09 with three pedals, the street rod in my avatar has three pedals too, with a Getrag 6 speed…..

Manual is for old people! ;-)

I can't wait for the Sportbikes to have the PDK option! :-0

By the way I'm keeping my car for a few years but I'm buying a sport bike in the sprint!

I wonder how many contemporary Porsche owners don't even know how to drive a car with a manual transmission, it's a travesty…..

To recap, from 991 TT impressions(997TT of course superior) to Aussie luxury taxes, to cheap leather, to sportbikes, to a slight jab on how crappy EP is, to motorbikes, to PDK/manual (PDK guys=wives wear the pants). What are we missing? How about throwing in the GTR into this thread.

Lets talk about the new 9A1 block as of today as we know over 30% of the new GT3's that have run on the track have gone into limp mode.

Love this forum

Honda tried PDK on their VF1200. Sales were horrible and the re-sale even worse...

I guess if you can't shift gears maybe you should not be riding motorcycles?
