Hi I attended the PEC Friday driving a carrera T in Cartagena yellow. Had a great time. As a pdk devotee I was very impressed with the manual gear box! The car itself, loved it and has me questioning should I change to a manual it was that good! Even liked the colour!

I’ve driven the ‘T’ in the previous 991.2 and 992.1 derivations and, correctly spec’d (keep it light and simple), I regard the ‘T’ as one of the nicest contemporary 911s - closer in concept to earlier generations.

Not yet driven the 992.2 ‘T’ but have heard very positive endorsements from acquaintances.

James May had one on loan from Porsche, to review - possibly the same PEC car.
He thought it would be just another modern 911 and wasn’t expecting anything more.
In fact, he had it at the same time as a mutual friend, who had a 992.1 ‘T’ PDK for comparison.

Anyway, long story short, both were completely taken by the new ‘T’ ….. specifically because of the character and engagement of the ‘manual’ gearbox which, in their words, made it much more fun.

As a result, both were so impressed that they both ordered, and have since taken delivery of, new 992.2 ‘T’s.

It would probably be my preference over the heavier, more complex, auto only, GTS.
But still surprising that Pccbs can’t be optioned on the ‘T’.
