PDK vs. 6speed: PDK is teaching me a thing or two ...

Ok, so I love a pedal and row for the thrill of it, but I worry about whether I am pushing it too hard, or over revving it. Not any more ...

I bought a Panamera Turbo recently (not the one in the photo which was my first Panny V6) and it had launch control. Damn ... I have been babying the 911TT! The PAG knows how to design this beast and make it work. This thing is ridiculous. Nothing but another TT with launch could beat me off the line.

Glad to be among the enlightened and my next 911TT will have PDK and launch control!! I never thought I would convert, but here I am, converted.

for performance hands down PDK or DCT, for thrill of driving nothing beats a 3rd pedal + slamming gears

I also love driving a manual, but the shift speed + launch control of the PDK is pretty sweet.

mike810 is infamous around these parts
The instant feedback from the PDK is great especially during down shifts but I do missing driving a manual. Haven't driven a manual since I sold my infinti for my E60 M5
