what spec's are you referring to?

a torque converter auto box = tip

Basically, here is my belief - if it has an automatic mode as its primary mode, then it is an automatic transmission.

I'll take the manual tranny w/ the clutch... and put the money of the PDK into the PCCBs.

Here's the spec. - http://www.drivers-republic.com/pdf/..._Cabrio_GB.pdf

JohnnyBahamas - Pls. read more about PDK and other types of automated (electronicly/hydraulicly controled) manual transmissions (incl. Formula 1 cars) before your next post on this subject.

Another question on the poll should be:

"I won't buy the PDK because they aren't classic paddle shifters (right up, left down). "

I would only consider paddles as I have driven them on Ferrari's and thought they were very good. But........I still love the manual so it would be a tough choice. Probably would still stick with the manual even if they were paddles.
