kreso, any news about GT4 and PDK?

These "news" have gone viral. Every car site and forum seem to have jumped on this with reference back to Matt's original post on Planet-9. I find it a bit awkward that AP meets with some random guy and spills news about future products.

It would of course be a piece of cake for Porsche to put the standard 981 PDK transmission in the GT4. There is a reason they did not do it in the first place (that reason is not too much effort). Porsche knows very well they would have sold even more cars with manual and PDK in the initial line up, it is not like they suddenly realised there is demand for PDK. Given that the current batch of manual-only cars is more or less sold out, they could have simply increased the batch. No need for PDK. So the reason must be a different one. My guess is, it is eather very early 981.2 GT4 news or it is a 981.1 GT4 Cup car with PDK-like transmission. Reading between the lines in Matt's other posts my bet is on the latter.

I could of course be completely wrong Smiley Has happened before...
