If it is not daily driver get the manual. I have a tip and I had to since it is my daily driver and I drive in heavy trafic. Some guys just does not understand trafic cause they have never been in one. Only way for me to own Porsche was to have a TipS and I can say for sure that it is no way close to any other modern transmission. this car deserves sequential as an alternative to 6-speed not tiptornic whic is ages behind other brands.

On the other hand, because of that intense traffic I mentioned before, there are very few 997s here with 6-speed. when you order one they suggest you to name your car like your newborn child since you will unlikely to be able to sell it:)
