There are two manual 997.2TT’s for sale right now. A 10’ and 12’. I’ve never actually seen a manual 13’ 997.2TT.

I saw a 13 cab 6MT for sale at dealership about a year ago. I knew it was rare but I wasn't in the market so I didn't pursue it. My bad today.

I drove Son's 2007 (used only 10K miles) and my 2008 (new) back to back. Could not tell any difference, except red faster than black.

I disagree. Black turbos are more aerodynamic.
