Fantastic car .
I've been drooling over one for the last few weeks at circle porsche .
White and decked out with red/black porsche livery (I think from cfos)
They also had a black one in , but I think that sold .
My service guy told me I could get one the RSs they have coming in , unfortunately there is a little problem with that ........ I didn't win the lottery again this weekend
If I did , I'd be there this morning buying the gt3 and turbo S they have in , and putting my name on that RS .
That would only blow half a million ........
It's automatic. The software is actually changing the gear, not a direct hand-on-gear lever-to-trans interplay. The software will even allow you to mess up a down/up change to make you think you're doing the actual gear shift. It's either a mechanical transmission, where the driver does the physical shift, or its HAL doing the shifting which makes it an automatic. Or in the case of PDK a sporty automatic. It's also part of the reason why racing is so boring and so few drivers can overtake (cleanly) anymore.
