... Will PDK attract drivers to Porsche that ordinarily would drive a MBZ? Perhaps, and it is a better car for it. I just hope that they do not discontinue manual shifters for some of us.

Vince, I drove one also and it is so smooth and quick it is unreal. I want one...someday. I predict that in the near future you will have to order the manuel as an option. Many high end racers are using trannies like the PDK so driving one is nothing to be ashamed of. You can concentrate more on the road and getting the corners right then shift points. You can shift by using the paddles if you like and the thing still will protect you from over revs. Try one, you might like it.
