I too will be perfectly happy in my manual transmission Carrera T to worry too much about whether someone in a GT3/4 has an even better gearbox!
If you're on the highway a lot 7th is great. I put cruise on for about 50 mins at a time in 7th regularly. You will LOVE your new car!

I have no dog in this fight but I'm excited to see these deliveries!! I think it's a great way to jazz up the 991.2 and invigorate the 911 line with something cool that isn't GT-based product for a change. Especially with the T being based on the "base" Carrera, that engine is a ton of fun across the power band.

Something about the "T" or I guess any "special edition" 911 really appeals to me, I am likely Porsche's dream customer. Do any special marketing or slap a decal on something and I am paying attention

A nice yellow T in the mix, some nice shots around 19 mins. Looks great dirty in earlier footage

Thanks! I must have watched hours of Carrera T footage, plus GT3 Touring, but always good to enjoy again!

Cheers,

Hi. Yes, I do a lot of motorway/highway driving, so am looking forward to 7th gear in that respect!

Cheers,

Cheers! Hopefully no more than 2 months to go now!

And I see that you're awaiting a pretty special 911 too! I look forward to seeing lots of pics of your GT3!
