The biggest challenge for a 997 ownership
....... isn't just about finding a place to dispose your just drained Mobil 1 0W-40 or debating on what to write for a post on the omnipresent question from a newbie if he should get a PDK or a manual.... It's the unprovoked turkey attacks....

One reason is a 1.5 hour minimum each way daily commute in grueling interstate traffic in which I drive about 10 feet and then stop for a minute and then another 10 feet....It didn;t take long for the 6 speed to wear me down after working 10 hours. Granted I don't drive the car to work everyday, but I decided for the days I do, I was going with PDK this time. Truthfully, not quite as fun in the 911 but it takes a little of the anxiety out of the commute for me. Sure could have had some other great options though for that $4000.

For the same reason those who buy a new Ferrari 458 Italia can't buy one with anything other than a 7-speed double clutch gearbox...

Happy Thanksgiving to all! One of many things that I am thankful for this year is a) gettinng my first porsche and b) joining this community and all that I have learned.
Have a Happy and Safe Thanksgiving!
PS. For what it is worth I thought the answer was "Resisting the mod bug"!

Because we aren't a true 911 enthuthiast as you are We 911 PDK owners are posers and needs to hide under the rock. BTW happy Thanksgiving to all Porsche owners, include the PDK guys and gals.

White or dark. It is your preference. Just make sure it's fully cooked. Or you will be regretting it. Have a Happy Thanksgiving to fuel up for Black Friday.
