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)
Excellent news! 8-)

Seem to think we’ve heard that one before.
Very good, Steve! ;)

However, I categorically guarantee that I will not be getting a Taycan next year! :geek:

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
