TIP is only FIVE speed, reason No.1, even Porsche is claiming that manual version(with optional LSD) is faster around ANY track(you will see it in Sport Auto!), reason No.2, and some other like...
Total driver control. You simply can not do that with TIP version, whatever you say it is not fully possible.
And some people like to change gears!
Let me tell you completely honestly if Porsche made TIP with 6 speeds, alu paddles for shifting gears(like new SL 55 AMG) and if LSD option was available for this TIP I would go for it!! But, not for TIP in present version, networked system or not.
BTW, why then new 997 GT2 will be manual only with standard LSD If TIP is such(you said track also) monster??



Kreso, don't start it again. The GT2 doesn't have AWD/PTM and you know it. Maybe you should tell Adnan to join us next time or he simply should ask CR. I'm sorry but Tip it is and the 6. gear doesn't do anything, maybe because Porsche apparently raised the boost pressure on Tip cars in the higher speed range to compensate for the missing gear.

Forget about the old granny in a 997 TT Tip picture...it would definetely be ridiculous and not funny.

You don't believe it? Meet with the boys in the Black Forest. If you can keep up with them or even be faster, I'll come too. If not, just believe me: Tip rocks.
