This is odd but good news. In that case, I would just ask my dealer to put the sticker in with my owner's manual rather than install it.

It's an expensive purchase. I suggest deciding what makes you happiest.

Much like branding your car as a “legend of cool” is extremely un-cool, advertising to the world you are driving a manual screams “look at me I’m cool”. But what do I know…I have a fake gt3.

I plan to keep mine on; it’s one of those little details that will be highly prized if still on the car in 20 years.

Also reminds me of a PCA sticker in a good way.

But I have my limits; I passed on the similar puddle light.

Not only will I keep mine on, but I want an extra set handy to replace if the original starts to show wear.

Really if Porsche made a sticker to be known as MT why can't they make one for PDK for 0-60 is faster lol. The sticker is too gimmicky

If someone wants window tint they will have to come off anyway, right?

I tend to agree with this. Douchey and Uncool. But as others have said, if this car is the last of the MT Porsches, it may be best to keep it on. I have a T Cab on order and it appears that the stickers are not applied to the smaller Cab rear windows. So I may be speared the decision.

i wonder if a template is provided to ensure exact and consistent placement.

(imagine if the model designation (on the rear) is not factory installed but dealer installed, we would see a lot of croocked/misaligned rear designation emblem) 😅
I think they are applied at factory. My finished factory picture from tyd showed the stickers already applied

I voted to keep 'em as I thought it was factory applied. If not, leave them in the glove box manual for the next guy, or remove them but have an OEM set.

They're silly, but also kitschy. Enough so that the PDK bros will be looking at your MT-sticker equipped 911 longingly. Spending hours on their therapist couch wondering where they went wrong in life choosing to drive a two-pedal 911.

I ended up taking mine off. I was pretty neutral from an outside visual standpoint but I came to find that while driving, when I would check my blind spots I kept thinking the stickers were a car. That's ultimately why I removed them.

Just think, in 20 years those stickers will be worth a zillion dollars.
