Quite the opposite as my Porsche SA whom has been with the brand for 42 years does not feel that there will be a 992.2 T.

992.2 announcement coming soon? See pic.

BTW, I was informed yesterday that our dealer principal saw the face lifted car, without any camouflage while he was in Shanghai for the Macan EV reveal as well as the annual dealer council meeting.

My instinct says from now on, the manual 911 will only come in those extremely limited runs. Like the Sport Classic or S/T.

It feels like Porsche will justify the added performance of mild hybrid. And that means 8 speed PDK only, doesn’t it?

I've read that the base car may not get the hybrid set up and therefore could continue as the 'purist' manual option. Time will tell.
