I really just wish they had the option for ether one(manual or PDK). Those are going to be some enormous brakes The start/stop turns the engine off under 4 mph ? This I could see possibly causing some problems in a parking lot. I think the carbon roof is going to sell well, the only gripe I have really, is why not put tires on it so it can handle the 200 MPH mark ?

I think the whole car has become monotonous... I drove my 991S for 280 kms and sold it... My previous one was a 997.2 GT3, the one before a 997.1 S Cab., and the the one before a 996 X51 40th anniversary... Oh and the 911 Turbo sucked ever since it went water-cooled and four-wheel driver... Sorry boys

it is a shame that manual transmission will be part of museums, hope that motorcycles dont try to do the same.

I can understand the Turbo having PDK, suits the way Porsche has been marketing it. The GT3 is the confusing one as not all owners want a pure track car, but a pure drivers car.
