] You know what you have to do. How far away is that new car from dyllan's spec - heated seats and all that?
Then you have what I would describe as on 24/7 because the PDK cars with PSE don't seem to have that 20-40mph drop off and also they seem to have more volume from the PSE too ... How does it drive you mad sometimes[&o] New page New Picture of a "WideBoy" might be good for a caption or two SpydermenORIGINAL: homerdogPDK - still not sure if I like it or not - sometimes I think it's amazing and sometimes it drives me mad!ORIGINAL: daro911 You little tinker[
Awful. Just that.
If you have it in Sports mode and put your foot down, it sometimes drops several gears. For example, powering out of a corner in a manual (or in PDK manual mode), you might select 3rd gear, but the PDK will sometimes select 2nd (or even 1st!), causing an interesting oversteer moment - perhaps I just need to learn to be a bit more circumspect with my right foot!
I know what you mean now [
] Whenever I have driven a PDK I always disliked the Sport mode because it wants to hold on until the redline and as you say if you booted it in 5th gear it could drop back to 2nd in a flash and hit that redline again[] Not much fun in the real world but probably brilliant on a track day In manual mode it is a different experience and much more like a regular stickshift changing up when you want too as opposed to the other way around when in sport mode
I am so happy I have a DCT M3 ATM as it has confirmed the Spyder and Cayman R need to be manual. I would have been right pissed off buying a Cayman R PDK and then having to sell it for a manual lol Now my search is just for manual ones, but that's not an easy task, when the must haves are buckets and Spyder wheels also. OPC are mad to order cars with the wrong wheels as many did.
I do like how you tell it like it is. Get yourself up to Anglesey and show flat6 and me the way home!ORIGINAL: MrDemon PDK has no place in these cars, end of
and next week end at the German Vmax event in the M3. Getting some RSS lca fitted and some race maxx tyres ready for the events, will go about -1.6 camber I think so still very usable for the road.
MrD, you will have an enviable fleet with a Spyder & Cayman R[ORIGINAL: MrDemon PDK has no place in these cars, end of
] Do you find that they ride differently? 
sadly no bi xenons .also no 3 spoke sprts steering wheel which of course isnt a prob as i can retrofit this but from personal experience retrofitting bi -xenons is a no goer shall keep hunting !!thanks for the heads upORIGINAL: rob.kellock Point of order flat6 [
been about 1.5 years since I have been in a Cayman R now, the rear ATB is stiffer and so the car it more tail happy, imo the Spyders a faster and easier car to drive, just seems better balanced. going stiffer all the time cannot be a good thing and just leads to snap over steer and poor wet traction, of which in the UK we have often.ORIGINAL: flat6MrD, you will have an enviable fleet with a Spyder & Cayman R[ORIGINAL: MrDemon PDK has no place in these cars, end of
You won't find the flat spot as in 2 years I have only had it happen twice when lugging along in say 4th or 5th then flooring it to use the torque and engine reacts like it has triple webbers for a millisecond You won't find the quiet spot it seems to be exagerated silence on manuals only. Both PDK's with PSE's I have driven didn't seem to have it just like you say [&o]
