Has anyone heard or think that Porsche can or will put PDK into future Cayenne Turbo's?

Doubt it will ever happen. They want to retain the SUV-ness of the Cayenne. PDK simply does not do well for towing and off-road use.

I would rather have a manual transmission in the whole Cayenne line(it would be cool if it could possibly make it into the Turbo), because I don't know how it differs from the Panamera to the 911, but I was driving it like a crazy man one day and it got stuck in 3rd gear 10 mins away from home and no where to stop. I got pissed, because a sporty transmission like that shouldn't get stuck in a gear and should be able to be driven like that if it was made for that right? Well anyway I got home(thought the I screwed it up, and thought my dad was going to kill me), I turned it off, took it back out, and it was fine, but from then on I never drove it again. So far I have driven my Cayenne like that and no problems whatsoever, so if it is gonna have that problem because it is heavier then the 911, then I say keep it out of the Cayenne, if it was caused because it isn't suspoce to be driven like that, then I say put the 8-speed into the Panamera or make the transmission more durable, or give us a manual for those who really want to drive it, and if it was a faulty transmission then fine. So I would rather have the 8-speed stay in it, or give the whole Cayenne line the manual transmission(for anyone that thinks the 8-speed isn't great or just wants that option).
