Call me crazy, but after a couple of years of ownership on a 991.1 C4S in PDK and owning other manual transmission vehicles, I’d opt for a GT3 in manual over this. I know this is supposed to be track focused to the extent that PDK is the only choice, but I’m not a pro and my primary aim on the track is maximum fun, which calls for a manual.

For my daily driver, 991.1 C4S the PDK is great in traffic, commuting, etc and I love it. But I’d buy a GT3 track toy in manual over PDK.

I know how you feel. But, I really wanted back into a TT car after having owned 4 previous generations. When I saw my current TTS I knew I had to have it so I bit the bullet and am giving the PDK my best effort. Have had 13 Pcars all manuals and this is the 1st PDK car, (wife has a Macan S that is also PDK). So far I am really loving the car and have great respect for the PDK transmission. Car is lightening fast and certainly faster than if I was shifting it manually. Would I rather have a MT, yes, but I decided not to fight City Hall on this one as I want to stay with the brand and wanted a particular model.

I need a pair of those Porsche gloves. I think I'd take a non RS 991.2 GT3 with PDK as I think it would be more livable on the street. But I'm sure the RS is a beast on track. I've driven a 991.1 RS on track and it's a scalpel.
