I'm sure it gets better as you get used to it, but for me I think it would be too uninvolving overall, so I'd always go for a manual, at least as long as my left leg still works

What should Porsche do next?

Thanks for the feedback everybody, appreciated.

I was wondering what everyone thinks, or would like Porsche to do next with their Boxster/Cayman engines?

If they want to continue using forced induction, my preference would be for supercharging because you don't ruin the exhaust sound. I'm not interested in pumping fake engine noises via speakers back into the cabin, so my preference would be for maybe a Supercharged 2.5 flat six, or something along those lines. :dance:
