Excellent news!Mistertoad wrote: ↑Fri Sep 28, 2018 5:26 pm On the plus side, manual 911s will be fewer and more desirable drivers’ cars.
Manual DB9s are very hard to find and cost considerably more than automatic versions of the same age/mileage. (There are no manual DB9s amongst the 53 cars currently on the AM website)
911 goes standard with PDK...

It's a bad news for us who buy used approved and want a manual gearbox.
Currently, you can count on one hand the number of manual 2016 onwards Carrera's and Carrera S's on the Porsche approved site.

Our stable:
- 992 Carrera T - manual - Ruby Star Neo - Carrera Excl. wheels (2023)
- BMW 240i xDrive (G42) - Portimao Blue - AC Schnitzer tune
ex: 981 Cayman GTS, Macan S Diesl, Macan Turbo, 991.2 Carrera S, 718 Cayman GTS, i30 N, 718 Cayman GTS 4.0
