I never got my 996TT or 997TT to sound good, despite spending ridiculous amounts of $ trying several different systems.

It's crazy how all this chat does is go back and forth about the next GT4...those who have seen it why not speak up? Or are they ashamed of how terrible it is...?
regardless of the fact the new GT4 comes out...turbo, 3.8, 4.0, PDK....it is probably the ugliest porsche I have seen. Nothing will take away the nasty front end or back end
why don't we all just enjoy our current GT4 and move on. This chat cracks me up...don't you guys have more important things to do other than speculate....go work

Same, I tried so hard with my 997TTS to make it sound like something. Lots of wasted money. That car was ***.

I really want the GT4, but not if it’s manual only.

Then maybe the GT4 isn't for you.

Why on earth would you settle for a flat-12 when you could have a flat-16? You people are so easily satisfied...

The firecracker sounds aren't to my liking.

Yes, maybe not then...
There are other options I would consider for sure.
And still be happy

Is PAG concerned a PDK would allow it to come dangerously close to a GT3?

PAG is concerned about placement and hierachy. All previously discussed.

Keeping PDK in their back pocket also makes it very easy for them to come out with an RS without having to do much engine work. Get 20hp from minor engine mods, put PDK in it, aero and you’re 20sec faster on the ring - marketing!!!
