Why did you switch from Manual to PDK? If you want manual, I personally would wait.

The dilemma I have is do I get in now when I have a slot for a PDK, or wait for the 6 speed. I am willing to wait as long as a guaranteed slot is available for the 6 speed, but no one truly knows when that would be. I am hoping before I submit the final order that the 6 speed will be available. My feeling is that the most are holding out for the 6 speed and slots will be passed over if only PDK is available.

Pimpinon,
The GT Sport Manual Transmission option is up on the Porsche configuration site today. You should have the Manual option available before your order is locked.

Why choose one or the other? Evidently you can have both.

Some clarification, from a dependable source. The only way to get both stickshift and paddles is to have the shifter on the steering column, 6 on the tree, and the paddles in the footwell, upshifts and downshifts are foot operated. On the plus side.available at MSRP.

Always happy to help. I've had both 2014 and 2015 GT3's, the PDKS is awesome, but the next one for me will be manual.
