What Will Power Future Porsches?
Wow, I like the VW group engine boss!



Better sound, higher revs, more emotion, more GT3, everyday drivability throughout the entire 911 range!? Count me in!

I just hope the manual transmission will survive.

"We have to do something with the GT3 manual transmission"

WHY? Why do you have to do something with it, you little prick?

According to CAR Magazine, the next generation 911 models will still have manual, but it won't be a 6MT, it will be a 7MT (the 7th gear solely for efficiency). I imagine it being on the right side of the H pattern separated from the rest of the gears, just as reverse is to the left, separated. As long as we get a manual transmission, I'm happy.

I think what he means is the GT3 will have a 7 speed manual transmission.
