| <yawn> BMW bringing tri turbo out announced the other day: Rumor: New BMW M3 with tri-turbo engine and 450 hp If the next gen turbo 911 is PDK only, I'll either keep my '09 or move to something else (WTF?)....hopefully Porsche will remain a true sports car and offer some of us the chance to move the gears ourselves. Sheesh.

Too bad the Turbo specs are not available at launch of the 991 series. Would make a difference to some of us I suppose.

| Wouldn't make much sense as the 991S is also a 7 speed manual....

| I'm excited for the 991 Turbo, but I can NOT wait for what the 991 GT2/GT2 rs will look like and the numbers it will produce.
