Baby boomers are getting older and Asians can't drive.

That's because Americans only race us in straight lines

If you track the car and want to be fastest then PDK may be the way to go. For many of us(most?)who don't track then I think the manual trans. is fine for the street. It is the buyer's choice. Perhaps for busy city driving and if I had bad knees PDK would be the way to go. Each one to their own.

One of my all-time favorite car movies.

If they could just take out that stupid muscle car, it would be perfect.

That made me chuckle, I love it. To take it one step further, what would an Asian Hairdresser who sold Mary Kay who happened to have a gimp left knee drive? Probably a lowered Speed Yellow 2000 S with a full body kit.

JFP is right, PDK is the future for Porsche as alternate versions are for other high end makes, the clutch pedal is being completely phased out. In less than a decade the manual option will be a thing of the past, get on the train or get left behind. I have not driven one (PDK) but I haven't heard a negative thing from guys that I respect who have.
