    diffenece between PDK and PDKS as a potential GT3 buyer

    could somebody help me

    i have owned a boxter s manual with at the time, a factory upgraded gear box.

    owned a 991s and now a targa x51 with pdk

    hoping to buy a gt3 and my instinct tells me go back to manual as i am not a regular track guy much more for road use.

    whats the deal with PDKS on the GT3 that makes it different and better than the standard GT3?

    thanks

    Not sure what you mean by "standard GT3". Smiley

    Maybe a little anecdote: I once had to drive a 991 GT3 RS from Zuffenhausen to Munich. I drove back from Munich in my 991.1 GTS and thought that something is wrong with PDK. So slow, sluggish... Same happens to me when I switch from my R8 to the GTS, I always think that something is wrong with the GTS PDK.

    So yes, the difference is quite obvious if you shift in the GT3RS or in the 991.1 GTS. Don't remember the 991.1 GT3 anymore, sorry.
