Great color combo!
I like the fact that in the drive through picture at Starbucks that you have it set in Sport Plus!
I say....calm down on the caffeine!
Enjoy for years to come!

Sports Plus is too much fun to turn off for coffee

Have you driven a manual 997 since getting your PDK and still feel like you made the right choice? I fooled myself into getting paddles with my last two cars (albeit they were BMWs) and they only lasted a year each. After driving a PDK 997.2 4S, I am extremely glad I went with a 6MT this time. Three pedals and a stick with rev matching/heel-toe is WAY more fun for me, even in traffic. Again, that's just me.
LOVE your color combo!

Thanks mate!
I test drove two C2S manuals (09 and 10). Don't get me wrong, I love a manual, but the PDK is just so dynamic and fun. You just can't get that capability with the manual. In a perfect world I would have one of each, but if I had to choose one, it would be the PDK. It's the most "connected" I have felt with a non manual transmission.
Buddy of mine had a DCT E92 M3 I drove on several occasions. Did not like the DCT at all. Just numb/disconnected feeling.

nice car, and welcome to the (Cream) club!
I had 2 manuals before mine, still miss it, but am thankful for PDK on my horrendous commute.
I shift my PDK manually 95% of the time.

Great color combo, congrats on the car! I'm in the vast minority here, but while I do miss having the 3rd pedal sometimes, my last 3 sports cars have been some form of automatic with paddle shifting and I find them plenty of fun to drive. I'm totally over the stigma of not having a true manual. I'm not saying I'd never get another one, but I am saying the transmission choice is not as important to me as it once was.
