Next 911 GT3 Reportedly Will Be a Turbo, PDK-Only Car
By Joseph Coelho

All good things must eventually come to an end, and if early reports turn out to be true, the naturally-aspirated GT3 will soon be no more. Check out what we've heard right here.

This will certainly drive 6MT car values, and now even the NA GT cars. Anxious to see what the RL community/expertise thinks....

PDK....simply the best. The entire performance reason a manual existed was to give the driver control over engine rpm. PDK does that. Clumsy third pedal, shifty stick, be gone!

I have both paddle shift cars and stick shifts. I will admit the paddle shift is always faster thus increasing performance; however, I will always love good ol' manuals! For about a month period I didn't drive any manual cars, and really started to miss the experience. I fixed that shortly after

A lot of people can live with PDK only. 50% of US cars and 75% of ROW cars are ordered with PDK, even with a manual option available. But a turbo engine in a GT3....? It may still be a great/fast car, but it will not be a GT3.

Now I might just keep my 9091.2 GT3 forever!
