You can't compare the 997 Carrera S Tiptronic with the 997 Turbo Tiptronic. I don't have details yet but I've been told that the new Tiptronic for the 997 Turbo has been greatly improved regarding shifting reaction time, shifting logic, etc. and that it is a great improvement over the old Tiptronic, especially in combination with the Sport Chrono Turbo package. We still have to figure out what is "new" about the 997 Turbo Tiptronic, if it is still a Mercedes based auto tranny or if it is by Aisin or ZF, whatever.

I understand that some people don't know if they should order manual or Tiptronic and they are under pressure by their dealers but I'm afraid this is all we got.
