I have a PDK, and I love it, but even I think this is an incredibly bad idea. Hubby has a manual and he loves it, and would never consider an automatic Porsche. It just doesn't seem like a racing company with no manuals. It's part of the heritage.

I think this will create a huge market for secondhand manual Porsches, though.

Has the hubby considered a horse? A horse would really put him in far more control that a manual automobile. From what I understand, it is a more purist form of racing, too.You really have to concentrate more and a horse can go off-road, jump across streams, etc. From what read... I think it's called "Horseback riding", you use both legs, both arms, and it's cheaper on gasoline than a manual. There's also some big race in that state where fried chicken comes from*. Although, being a purist, it will be difficult to get the bose sound system that plays vinyl on horseback.


Personally, I love the pdk... and that movie where Aragorn rode that horse across the dessert.
