Haha I know what you mean. To be honest the flat 6's sound like trucks, especially on startup!
And if you get a chance, you should try out their new PDK system! I have driven a friend's 997.2 (late model 997) with PDK and was certain that I would get the 7MT when it came to purchasing my very first. A test drive with the new system (which has exactly those video game shifts) squashed any and all doubts I had about the PDK.
