    Ah yes, manual a thing of the past. Everybody would complain about it and then it went away. Now everybody wants it back. I had a sale proof 360 stick because it was old technology and everybdy had to have the F1. I sold it for about 20% less than a F1. And now sticks are 50% more. Go figure

    when Ferrari figures out they can charge $50k more for a manual, they'll come back.

    And people will be lining up to buy every one of them. I've owned 3 gated manual Ferraris and have to say they are a blast to drive. I still own a 550 Maranello which is glorious. Having said that its a blessing that Porsche hasn't forgotten its roots. My favorite car is my 2016 Porsche Spyder, 375 HP flat six with manual gearbox. It is a car that keeps on giving everytime I drive it. Thank you Porsche for staying true to your heritage.
