I prefer a manual, but doesn't look like you give up anything in performance with a tip so while less engaging, I can live with it.

Going to keep the S65, its way too much fun mashing the pedal on that one.
You need to increase your garage size. I like how the S65 is the one that stays outside

The PDK tranny is suppose to be fantastic! One auto porsche for your wife sounds like a wife tax for all the other cars!

A friends father just test drove a porsche with the PDK tranny and can't stop talking about it.

A few of the upgrades are nice, Ipod interface, Bluetooth, ventilated seats, etc. PDK is not available as the older design single block engine was kept in the Turbo and GT3 for homolgimation to racing. Same reason they do not have DFI either.
