Which Porsche Models Come in Manual?

Effortless acceleration comes standard with every Porsche. At our Porsche dealer serving Los Angeles, we have a range of models on our lot, but purists may prefer the manual transmissions. So which Porsche models come with a manual transmission?

Porsche 911 Carrera S and Targa 4S

An 8-speed Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK) transmission is standard on many of the 911 models; however, if that doesn’t suit your driving preferences the 7-speed manual transmission with Sport Chrono Package is available as an option for the 911 Carrera S models and the 911 Targa 4S. This shortens the transition from one gear to the next, making for quick acceleration with the nimble handling that you’ve come to love from your Porsche. The addition of the Sport Chrono Package includes an even sportier tuning fo the chassis, engine, and transmission.

Porsche 718 Boxster

In the intuitive driver-centric cabin layout that’s signature of this manufacturer, the gear stick is right within reach and they’ll find that an effortless shifting experience means they can spend more time focusing on taking hairpin turns and flying down the highway.

Porsche 718 Cayman

Porsche’s lineup of 718 models also includes the Cayman, which are likewise equipped with a six-speed transmission. Thanks to the quick thinking of its intelligent transmission, this model can hit impressive speeds while still posting quick stopping times thanks to it’s nimble shifting capabilities. Passersby will admire its style—for the short period that it’s in their sights! You’ll be leaving them behind in no time.
