I'll bet the Ferrari guys said the same thing a few years ago. Gated shifter - their signature.

Turbo will come out 2014 (will be introduced in 2013). It will have three turbos. GT's will have only manual transmission.

If porsche want to compete in the world stage aka gtr you will need faster shifting technics. And this is a fact. Waiting for a higher hp able pdk finger crossed.

If they're available in manual, I can almost guarantee it wont be a 6spd, it'll most likely be the new 7spd! Guess you wont be a Porsche fan any longer since it's not a 6

BTW, I just noticed your avatar, I see you driving through BH all the time down Sunset. Nice car bro!!!

Only one out of three drive manual tranny........just like Ferrari and lamborghinni, the manaul tranny will fall by the wayside at stuttgart.....sign of the times I guess. It's a shame really. Anyone with five/six/seven on the floor, they are keepers
