Honestly, a PDK convertible would be at the bottom of my 911 list. The colour combo is interesting but I think it would be more desirable if it was better specced. Just my two cents though.

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, thoNo sure. My default answer would be manual or nothing, but I'm starting to be on the fence. For one, it opens up a bunch of other cars available for sale, vs chasing a unicorn. And secondly, that PDK Boxster GTS was a pretty good experience.

Yes. I'm getting to the point where I need to test drive some more examples rather than just paper plan. Hopefully this summer.
