I drive a friends PDK (both Cayman R and 981 'S') and have pushed them extremely hard on mountain twisties and the PDK in Sport or Sport+ is amazing. It like having a very experienced track rat shifting for you.

I love my 6 speed 2000 'S' though and I'm not sure I could ever see it with a PDK. PDK is amazing for hard driving but for that general driving it is so nice to know I can decide when i want to shift down and when I want to drop into a high gear to coast and save gas. Think I'll stick with a manual in my 2000 'S'...but for daily driving/commuting I'll take PDK though mainly for physical reasons.
