The standard 991.2 GT3, while now available with a six-speed manual, also retained the advanced PDK transmission that had initially redefined Porsche’s GT lineup. After the 991.1 GT3 debuted exclusively with PDK, this lightning-fast dual-clutch setup set a new standard for track-focused performance and precision. Although the subsequent success of the 911 R encouraged Porsche to revisit manual gearboxes, the PDK-equipped GT3 remained a favorite amongst drivers seeking uncompromising speed, rapid shifts, and consistently optimized lap times. This dual-approach—offering both manual and automatic operations—allowed the 991.2 GT3 to cater to a broader range of enthusiasts, even as the GT3 RS held its ground as the sole naturally aspirated GT model committed exclusively to PDK.
