I had heard they were close to a deal, I didn't know they were in production.
Adam is a solid pick. I think Tanner is sort of weak, but he is a driver, sort of - drift.
Funny story - one of our instructors at the Porsche Sport Driving School is good friends with Tanner and actually first got him in the business, said Tanner lived on his couch for a while.
Tough to beat the BBC version.

He knows it's Porsch-ahhhhh but says Porsche not to confuse those nott in the know. He is a goldmine of stats, lore, info, etc abouts cars having talked to him personally. Don't underestimate his humbleness

Something not mentioned in his review was if the computer blips the throttle on downshifts. This is normally discussed in reviews of 430s and Lambos. The engine noise on those cars also make it much more obvious to begin with.
I wonder how this gearbox would do with a lot of track time.
