John, i also had to adapt my driving style towards PDK. Also fully agree that on a day to day basis (stop and go in the city) i usually leave it in Auto mode and when blasting some country roads switch to manual (with SCplus). main difference to manual shifter is that i tend to forget which gear i was in (even in manual mode of the PDK), but you get used to looking at the small gear indicator in the gauges.

i would say that you do loose ca 15-20% of pure involvement, but gain ca 50-60% more versaitility. so all in all the PDK is top.

Would i have bought a sportier car (say a gt3) then i would never have opted for PDK even if it was available.

Havig SCplus helps a lot thoug, because you can change the character of the car soo much.

cheers,
