Oops....forgot the bucket seats question. Love them. In fact, I will spend (almost) whatever it takes to have them transferred to my next 911. Won't be happy with a regular seat again after getting accustomed to these. Adds another dimension to connecting with the car. Very comfortable too and look brand new after 12,000 miles with a dose of Sonus every other month. Some complain about getting in and out of them but unless you're compromised in some fashion it's not an issue imo. Different but no big deal. You sort of drop into it and rotate out.

As far as ingress/egress, not an issue. I have Recaro Profi SPG's now so those will be like a bench seat in a '55 Buick by comparison.

I would think that the PDK may hold up better? Its a lot easier to screw up something on a 6MT manual gear box with human error. Not to mention the risk of over-revs. Mine (PDK) has almost 16,000 miles and no issues.
