The problem with manual would be that neither the electronic differential nor the rear axle steering could be combined with manual. Now just think about development and especially adaptation cost and time, I doubt that Porsche will do that for some hardcore Porsche enthusiasts when they can get at least 2 new customers for every old customers not wanting the car because of PDK. Just saying...

If Porsche offers manual on the GT3 RS, this will open the Pandora's box of special desires, which Porsche cannot afford to handle. I wouldn't do it and I hope that Porsche doesn't make this mistake. Actually, I would start offering PDK as standard on all the cars, with the exception of the Cayman maybe (this could be some sort of incentive to buy the Cayman).
