I would bet a pretty penny that every lineup gets PDK except GT3 and GT2.
Why you ask? I don't think the initial slavo of e-diff/PASM technologies will be suitable for the more track oriented P cars.
People don't realize that an seq/semi-auto transmission means a loss of a mechanical-based differential (the two don't work together). Just my perdiction in writing![]()

What diff did Enzo/360CS have? Are no e-diff systems as compatible w/track cars as mech diffs...even w/latest hardware/software advances?![]()
P may struggle more w/creating a PDK compatible w/tq of 997TT/GT2....PDK 1.0 may be as suboptimal as F1 1.0/PCCB 1.0 were....and, given the endless delays (only 10+ yrs post-F1 1.0), expectations will be high for a decent PDK 1.0 version...

better then SMG or F1
- faster changing of gears
- no power interruption
not better:
- changing of two gears
In principle is PDK the logical move after Tiptronic. SMG is the logical move after manual.

Absolutely agree with your conclusion, but are you sure about the changing times of gears? For example Bugatti says at their website that their DSG (which should the class leading DSG currently available) does the gear change in a maximum of 0.2 sec.
Now we all know, that F1 of Ferrari in its fastest position changes gears within 150 msec or even 100 msec (F430/Enzo and F599 GTB Fiorano respectively). If I remember correctly, the FXX even does it in 80 msec.
So what is the truth now?![]()

The fastest is the SMG form M5/6 with 65 ms minimum shifting time. If DSG from Bugatti is 200 ms, then I don't know.
65 ms shifting in S6 P500 sport is not smooth.
