Read the title of the thread. If I choose to drive an automatic, that's my choice. It is much easier to drive an auto in traffic than a manual, that's a fact. It has nothing to do with the size of your leg, just the size of your brain.

Personally, I have never driven a Tip TT. However, I did like the Tip on the Cayenne. Based on the input to this post, it sounds like a Tip in a TT is very good.

 

This is MARX's and Y65MPH daily work beater... its a tippy w/ chromes!

 

Why on earth do you have an expresso machine in your car? Better yet why the hell do you run 19's? Poser!

 

matt,
you should have just got a GT-2 considering the mods. stop with all this non sense.

life dies,
hey man i got 19's, and i am a poser, i do live in a trailer park, you guys did **** my girlfriend, and chedda bob did shot shoot himself in the leg. god damn it, sorry LSD flash backs. can we just all just try to be happy with what we got. it's just a forum.

 

Yep... but if you bring in my nationality: Things in Germany are just as slow as a GERMAN Porsche 996 GT2/CGT, a GERMAN AMG SL 65/SLR or a GERMAN M3/M5... uhmmm... or a GERMAN Lamborghini Gallardo/Murcielago (Lambo is owned by VW/AUDI)... or a GERMAN Bentley Continental GT (owned by VW/AUDI)... or as crappy as a GERMAN Rolls Royce Phantom (owned by BMW). Your turn now!

Wow... how did you get into my garage? Uhmm... by coincidence I found a pic of your hardcore racer with your "factory GT2 body kit":

 

Marx, please tell me you are not a complete tool... The GT2 wing and front spoiler provide more downforce, therefore creating more stability at 180+ mph speeds, something you should be easily familiar with living by the autobahn. My car eclipses the 180 mph mark with ease, and I find many places to demonstrate that to myself on a regular basis. I also track my car, so I need the kit.

 

Yep, I know. Costs a little top speed though.

I wouldn't have reacted that strong if you weren't going into this whole this discussion so aggressively. And I simply love the pic of the car with the wooden "aero-kit".

 

So I will only be able to hit 204 mph insteed of 208 mph... like I will ever be going that fast on a track... maybe on the freeway though

 

Ya, I read all your posts on how great you are driving a stick

HAHAH

 

Matt, let the horse die.

 

You guys better buy a Benz than a Porsche.


Tiptronic in a Porsche,no way

 

Tiptronic is a GREAT option for anyone that wants it. Period.

Personally, I love stick shifts. They are more engaging to drive, but require more effort. Not necessarily something you may want on a daily commute in traffic.

I can concede that in a high horsepower/torque car an automatic CAN beat a stick in acceleration especially with an average driver at the helm.

 

I don't really get this Matt Fresh guy. Ok you don't like the tip. Fine. But you don't have to make a complete *** of yourself trying to explain that.

I got the feeling that anyone who drives a tip TT with psm on is gay, worthless, makes you puke and so on and so on.

You drive your REALLY FAST manual TT with a super racing clutch in traffic all day with psm off and you're really the mans man!

I would definately get a manual TT (yes I don't own a porsche, am I allowed to post?) because I've driven manuals all my short life and live in a city with hardly any traffic at all but I understand those who choose the tip.

"If I had my choice of a manual (stick shift) vs. a sequential gearbox on a track, I would choose the latter with no hesitation. I would much rather drive an Enzo on a track than a CGT for the sake of the gearbox"

So you're saying that you'd rather sit in traffic all day long with a race clutch and when you come to the track you'll switch to the semi-automatic box?

I know the Enzos gearbox isn't anything like the tip in the 996 but this sentence kind of defeats anything you've posted in this thread.

 

This reminds me of Tyson's two persians in a Z06 thread.

Where is Scott from Houston when you need him!!!!
