And besides it's not like I'd be able to buy one any time soon, so here's to holding out for a manual!
I agree with your rationale about the delayed availability of the manual. Not that I am happy about it, but I understand the business case behind it. Better performance and mpg numbers to report officially first. Maybe the RS will introduce the launch of the new close ratio short-shifting rev-matching 7-speed manual.

Wow the car looks stunning, can't wait to see it in person. Does anyone know if it has the Regular Carrera Hips or the Carrera4S hips that are wider. I figure the wider hips will be reserved for the RS version.

It would definitely make sense to me, however I just watched the evo interview with Andrea Preuninger, and it seems all of the adjustments they've made are to directly replace the manual transmission instead of allowing one later in the future. Also he says there were many back to back manual-PDK tests, but in the end, PDK prevailed. Preuninger is convinced however that the 991 GT3 is more involving than an RS 4.0 however, so I'm sure this one is no short of amazing.

44MM wider than the Carrera S (same as the 4S)

Neat little marker lights within the rim of the headlights.

I can see how they will evolve into some like the sport turismo.
