    997 S wifes new ride

    Just picked up a black/black couple of days ago. She hasn't let me drive it yet so can't review it. As a passenger..louder exhaust,faster acceleration and a
    bigger smile on her face! It has the ceramic brakes/sport
    package etc.

    What is the sport package? -20mm suspension? I thought you won't get these in the foreseeable future!

    You bought the car and she doesn't let you drive?

    What kind of male-chauvinist question is that? If a lady buys a 997S, your first thought is to have your suspicion confirmed that she will have ordered a Tiptronic transmission!

    It was an ordinary gender-neutral question.

    he was asking _which_ tranny she selected.

    he didn't chauvinistically assume it was a tip.

    The car-consumer statistical facts _are_ however that women do desire the automatics more than guys.

    Re: 997 S wifes new ride

    yes, naturally i would suspect a woman would generally opt for the tiptronic... but hey not all women are like that, some like to drive their cars

    Don't worry MaxErnst. My male "chauvinist comment" was meant as a joke, not a rebuke.
    Note the emoticon:

    And besides, Andrew has confirmed in the meantime that he was "guilty" of stereotyping.
