agree.

i think true 3 pedal manuals will hold their value in the 911 range. for me, it's two factors --the first is rarity and the second is the prohibitive cost of PDK transmissions which cannot be repaired, but need to be replaced.

and most owners will not change the fluids every 50,000 miles.

the NA engines also should hold a premium.

i fully recognize that PDK cars are faster. and the 3.0TT motors are much better for AUC power.
