Hi

Anyone know when the manual gearbox is being released?

Thanks
 
How many gears I wonder? 7?
 
Who cares, PDK all the way :grin:

If it is 7 again, I am not interested. They have put the 6-speed on the GT3 with Touring pack, so clearly that is the best gearbox - why you would need 7 gears is beyond me, I hardly ever even go into 6!

High geared 7th which is a significant boost to lowering fuel economy, exhaust emissions and high speed cruising comfort

Mine will hit >35mpg on a motorway cruise without any real effort. Pretty impressive for a 190mph NA car. On a spirited drive you may only use 3 gears - and that would be the same for a 6 speed car. :D
Oh, and don't forget the pub bragging rights - the manual car is fastest.... by 1mph. But that counts! :floor:
