I'm with you.. tip is the best!!! Not sure if I'll ever go back to the manual shifting cars, clutch changes, traffic knee pains, and all.

Got one of those with the F1 style paddles. So bloody fun. The Tip gearbox is quick enough (as fast as the clutch anyway). Driving my 986 on M mode 100% of the time.
