Have to agree. I would love PDK on my next Cayenne or Turbo Carrera (as long as the warranty is lifetime) but on a roadster? No way.
I'd have to do a truck load of daily driving to even consider getting rid of the lever.

As for peformance, sure the machine will be be quicker than the man, so why not just go fully automatic like some guys in F1 who don't even bother to shift any of their gears? That's where things are headed. But I see lots of guys looking for the PDK to put them closer to FTD bragging rights and that coveted $5 trophy at the next autocross or DE Cup. Laptimes go up, driver talent down.
