GTsilver2010 has a spectacular aura about

pdk

while a comparison of a 997s or boxter PDK would be a decent comparison it isn't the same.

PDK on the turbo is a different version than that of the other cars.

I am not sure what year M3 you drove but the DCT has undergone a series of software upgrades which has made a big difference.

All that said, my 911 turbo is a 6 speed.

You know what? I don't know what year it was either... And I wasn't aware of the changes. Thanks for informing me.

I am sure my 2009 997tt cab has already taken a huge hit in value so a trade towards a 2010 pdk would be a lot of money. Probably 30k? So is there even any possible way to swap a sequential manual gearbox in place of my stock 6 speed?
