I’ve seen some people say that they’d rather pay the premium for a high mileage manual than a low mileage (30,000km vs 120,000km) triptonic, that they’d rather get a colonoscopy from Edward Scissorhands than have a triptonic Porsche.
I’ve tried triptonic and while there is lag, it shifts faster than anyone I know If I buy a triptonic turbo 997 because it fits in my budget and I don’t mind the ride (997 gt3 to fill that need) am I really never gonna be able to get it off my hands because people can’t stand triptonics?
Not terrible, is actually pretty decent for a slushbox… but’s still a slushbox, not as fun or as engaging to drive as a manual, and the price reflects that.
If Tiptronic was almost as nice as manual, they would be much closer in price.
