Personally, I like it when the steering wheel controls for all the cruise and junk are optioned but I'm nit-picking. Heated wheel would also be a bonus.Railton
I have no issues with PDK or proper steering wheel controls for things like volume, cruise, etc. But those shifters are complete rubbish and Porsche should be ashamed of ever doing that. If I remember corrrectly, you get a rocker switch on each side with up and downshift on each. Could they have come up with a more stupid idea?
$80K for a lot of compromises.

Some compromises, but you get:- Classic 911- S- Cabrio- Unique colour combo- very low km- 997.2- Flat six, non-turbo soundSo quite a lot going for it. Prices have bumped up a bit over the past year. I think if this drops to say $69k, I may biteYou wouldn't regret that tranny setup? I feel like I'd never be truly satisfied. I'm with you on the rest, tho

Its also for sale at Pfaff... they price them quite high... usually above market I find.

I'd be fine with PDK.I'm no longer a manual or bust man. Still prefer manual but whatever.

Still prefer manual but whatever.I'm the same, the auto box/flappy paddles on the AMG were really good, and then you can cruise in heavy traffic when you want. The PDK has gotten much better over the years since introduction.Personally I've really liked the look of 911 cabrios, they look a bit hunchbacked to me. What's the weight distribution like?Really like the Targa design though.How old we've become. Auto trannies, cabriolets.......soon we'll be wearing Merlot pants.
