The good news for you Khalid, is that I've decided to get it Manual this time !
All tip. units were sold ages ago, and the first one would be in Sep. production.
Manual then Try to catchup when they mod those tiptronic S 997tt

That's great news. I'm seriously bored from seeing so many tiptronic turbos. Nearly everyone here wants a manual stick shift but you know how it is, too many forced turbo tiptronic allocations.

Mohamed, on paper you might be right, but in the real world, the difference will never be that pronounced.

I Agree with you ... Manual will always be more "original".

DJ,
Painting the front lip spoiler will look better. It will also give it a meaner look. I guess you will have to compromise with the chances of some scrapes from some roads.

For sure if it is painted it will need to have the 3m or xpel clear film on it to protect against chips
