you have to ask yourself if you want a manual or a tip?
tiptronic 911 will never have high demand or resale. Therefore with high miles and a low price it would make great transportation or beater car. The Tiptronic is trouble free.
The PDK 2010-2013 turbo is a really good automatic transmission car if you really desire automatic.
manual 2007-2009 turbos will have a nice future.

Tips are very fast cars with mild mods. They will take a 6 speed manual, all day Friday and Saturday and all night and the rest of the week. Don’t kid yourselves, it’s still a great car and it’s beaten hard by the haters.

And please....don't be worrying who is faster. But.... if you do enjoy shifting, holding the car in a lower gear just to hear the noise, having the car in the exact gear that you want pulling out of a curve, and being able to rev your engine ever so slightly sitting at the light for you kids... well you need to pony up for that "slower" turbo stick. Because you will regret buying an automatic... Personally... I could never ever have an automatic (PDK) in a sports car "toy".... but that is just me... it's like an automatic on a motorcycle, joystick on a boat, or a side stick in an airplane....

Your $45K is I believe the cheapest one I have ever heard of...if it was me (well if it was me I would not have it under consideration as I had the MT as a must have...just because I like to play...heel toe and leaving the light on power will keep you interested/challenged for a long time)...but the MT not withstanding, $45K is hard to pass up if you like the color.
