You mean Clutch (with a C). Or is it german?

Will that PDK be a semi automatic gearbox or tiptronic or something, or will it be a manual twin-clutch gearbox?

PDK will be equivalent to BMW SMG / Audi DSG, it is not a traditional torque-convertor automatic transmission with manual shifting capabilities ala tiptronic.

drove the Veyron & the most shocking thing was the tranny. it was mind blowing awesome. though the 6 speed will still be more fun to drive but looking forward to the PDK.

PDK/DSG is very different from SMG. The dual clutches make a huge difference in how smooth the car shifts.

To get a preview go check out the new GTI.

Yeah, that's what i thought, is PDK the DSG from VW after a reinforcement and a new name?

What do you think the fun factor will be for a PDK vs a 6 speed??? And how many of you would purchase the PDK???

Yes, in Germany we say Kupplung for Clutch. But I can`t understand that the 997 TT comes again with this Tiptronic. I hope in the 2008 Mod with the 997 GT2 PDK comes, I still hope.
