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?
Buy what you like, not what other people like. If you drove a tip and you like it, then congrats, you’re going to save some money. If you prefer driving a manual, don’t compromise.
