See, I feel just the opposite -- I'd have to be doing a lot more track work than I do anymore to consider moving to a PDK. Traffic is the very thing that would keep me in a manual Porsche forever. Why? Because there is NOTHING ELSE TO DO when you are stuck in traffic. Getting to slip the clutch and ease forward repeatedly is the only "skill" you're getting to enjoy/exercise/display that day. If traffic is light or nonexistent, or you're on a track, you can enjoy so many other aspects of driving that it might just make up for the loss of the clutch pedal.
