Oh I forgot to talk about the transmission. One of the best features of any PDK equipped Porsche. The system is just insanely amazing. Low speeds, high speeds, it's all amazing. Except it does have the occasional low speed shift clanky noises (yet you can't feel them) that my 911 doesn't have.

When upshifting, there is a cool sound that sounds similar to a large pressure change (think BOV without the whistles..). Whatever it is it sounds cool, and the shifts are lightening fast. A good transmission is a big deal in my opinion, which I'm afraid to admit the Z does not have. I hope the next gen Z implements a GOOD dual clutch system as an option. But in a roadster, I'd rather get a MT.
