Given that Ferrari's first "good" F1 box came with the F430 3 (yes THREE) years ago, we should expect Porsche's PDK to be FASTER than this when changing gear, otherwise it will be a disappointment.

Well which model will you compare it to? The fastest I think is the Scuderia with 60 milliseconds. But now the California has a double-clutch transmission.
The double clutch should be quicker than the Scuderia shift times otherwise its probably not so good..
Just an opinion but considering Porsche owns a major stake in VW it should be very similiar to the DSG, so that's what? 30 milliseconds or quicker?

Hey, how many posts do I have to make before I get the "newbie" tag off my signature? :-) I've been reading this forum just about every day for a year or so and have resisted responding to topics with just a "yeah, I agree" comment just to bump my posts. BTW, I was previously "newboxsterowner" but changed my name to 911nut when I cancelled my boxster order and decided to wait for the FL 911.

However good the Porsche PDK can be, it will be useless with paddle mounted on the wheel and not the column... This is not an F1 car...
