992.2: Where are the Carrera manuals?!

Well if the S is a hybrid, how can it have a manual? Look at the drawings of how the electric motor is integrated into the driveline with the PDK - how are you going to deliver that with a manual?
The only way the S is a manual is - they drop the electric assist motor. Just run the eTurbo unit in the S, it essentially "detunes" itself without the electric assist motor, uses the "regular" PDK, and can therefore be delivered with a manual also.

so far the original car and driver leak on 992.2 has been accurate, I expect 911s 992.2 with ~ 10 more HP and also with a manual. Lot of fear of the MT going away. No worries

It seems that Porsche is now treating the manual like the NA engine...reserved for GT cars or limited edition trims.

No more Manuals. https://www.thedrive.com/news/there-...he-911-in-2025
Never fear, Porsche will pull out that 4.0 NA ICE engine with a 6 or 7 speed three pedal, make 500 units with an ungodly price tag that the Dealers will pop another $ 300K on top of, and that's what you will have a shot at for a new one. MEANWHILE, all of us with manuals just watched the value of our cars increase overnight.

I recommend you go back and read the article you linked, then come back.
I say this as someone with a 2024 T with 130 miles on the odometer.

If there is a market Uber-segmenter Porsche will find it...
If they can squeeze more profit from isolating the manuals to the GT and special models then they will just do that...

S will be hybrid , so no MT
but we can give you Carrera T/S , new variant of the T
450 HP , same 3.0 engine from the T
MT
turbo from 992.1 GTS
and people will salivate over it
not numbered so available to the masses

I was shocked when I got a call late last November that I could negotiate a trade of my '22 C4S cab for a "bonus" Targa 4S allocation the dealer had just received.
My good fortune seems to have increased (as others here have said) "overnight".
A MT turbo car sounds interesting but I'm more interested in being able to select open air driving rather than brute force. I've gone back and forth between cabs and Targas over the years - only the cab can offer the full top down experience but the Targa performs better for me as "almost a coupe" with the top up. The lack of rearward visibility in the cabs always bothered me a bit.
After going through the Configurator yesterday, our son asked what I would sell the Targa for. I told him it would have to be a number no sane individual would pay.

Again this info is now almost a year old - how are people so convinced that this info does not exist - again there is a lot of planning to design and sell these cars and of course you have to discuss allocations and specs with your buyers (dealers) and of course the first and also the good end customers.
The info does exist. S is coming. These cars are not created overnight.

Digital tach. Ugly exhaust. Fugly front end aero and removal of DRL.
My 992.1 MT C2S seems more valuable now that I wonder, do I drive it somewhat less to slow the mileage on it as both the cost to replace it and the likelihood of getting another manual mean I am keeping this vehicle long long term….
