But if you look at the picture of the gearknob on that site it is a manual one. :confused:

The 7 Speed S-tronic is also longitudinal not transverse like the TTRS needs. :surprised:

Was wondering when his feet were going to start itching.

I would love a TTRS :drool:

Was in Porsche the other day picking up a BMW and I didnt want to leave. :ashamed:

Ahhh i know that feeling mate! i always pop into the Porsche dealer when i'm in Exeter and i come out feeling sh*t haha. What i would do to have this right now driving down the California coast, especially with how the weather is today  :mad:

I've never really understood the appeal of a Porsche. Having driven a few (Boxster S, Cayman S, 997 Turbo), I've always been dissapointed with them. Sure they're fast but they're all ugly and in my opinion they are a bit boring. Give me a Gallardo over a Porsche any day  :evilgrin:

Ive never been a massive fan but when your in the showroom it is just a novelty. Lambo over a Porsche anyday though  :happy2:

....Wouldn't it be nice to have to make that choice? Perhaps I should raid my daughter's trust fund!  :evilgrin:

"He" is keeping it again  :wink:

And I wont be the first aftermarket turbo user in the UK anymore, and TBH im really glad as it was proving to be alot of hard work and just getting the companies and info together takes quite a bit of time and effort!
