The only thing that i don't like at all on the new GT2 RS is exactly this, the bloody PDK...with no manual option.

What a fantastic car! In the tradition of the 911 GT2 cars, the turbo engine in a GT platform rwd drive car.

Very interested in how it will perform on the track.

Now let the dealer gouging begin....sadly.

Sub-seven minutes at the Ring for sure.

I predict 6:50, beating the Huracon Performante to make it the fastest production car ever.

Definitely looks badass but not sure what I'd do with the car. I don't track so canyon carving? Like taking a bazooka to the fly on the window.

I love looking at cars like this on websites. No desire to get one unless I were 20 years younger and tracked regularly, so no need to drool over it. Plus, having a TTS is not too shabby, and a nicer ride to boot. Porsche is an amazing company, they seem to be good at virtually every level of the business process, from design to marketing. Like the old Bob and Ray commercial with the guy who built a computer printer that costs $4 million, he's asked "who's gonna buy it?", and he answers, "I only have to sell ONE."

Move the stick to the left, and stomp on the dead pedal whenever you pull the paddles. There's your manual option.

You want a car that's less than it can be, you'll have to buy it from some other company.

Awesome $1M+ car. Isnt it funny though Porsche still can't find enough features/options to fill the buttons on the console
