BTW... all die-hard 6-speed stick 911 drivers I know, rarely use the 6th gear. Some even say that PAG put a 6th gear there strictly for marketing reasons (you know... certain customers think more is better). PAG strayed there from form fits function, the same way Mercedes and Lexus is going these days...



How do they go faster than 120mph???

With regards to the tiptronic, there are some good auto boxes out there, but the Porsche one is not. I've had problems with my C2S manual and was given a tip 997 for a period as a loaner. I drove it soft, hard, slow, fast and everything in between; the manual is definitely better.

The only reason I'd ever get a tip is if my sports injuries catch up with me and I have a dodgy knee come old age.
