I too am seriously thinking of getting one but also am concerned about going in blind. My 991 GT3 comparison will be based on my previous 997.2 GT3 which was stupendous. When the order books open up I will wait to test drive one before ordering.... that is unless the Gods of temptation intervene!

 

well as far as a pdk goes, i have a cayman r pdk... yes its fun.. yes its awesome.. yes its quicker and smarter than me...
its a joy to drive around town... except i cant drink starbucks in it.. i have yet to make it home without spilling it all over the dash.. same with red bull.. evidently my radio fried out.. i know why but mums the word... it was replaced under warrenty..

the reason i bought a 997 gt3, let alone was lucky enough to score a beautiful RS was the fear of a pdk gt3... fk that....

you will get bored inside a pdk car... it has its perks... but i was getting bored...
i will gladly sacrifice a few seconds on the track to have more involvement inside the car rather than just sitting there twiddling my thumbs waiting for the guy in front of me to get his shifts in order and hear that sound as he downshifts..

if your getting older.. get the pdk... if your still young... row those gears..
just my 2 cents from someones who has tortured himself to death over lifes stupid simple litttle pleasures..

 

I'm getting older and no PDK for me for the same reason.

 

I'm still young and will row gears till I die!
