Sure, this reply is fine. I was just responding to some previous reasoning like ...


"I cannot use my car to its full potential, so the longer gearing is just inferior and Porsche did it mainly to keep Cayman back from the 911. "


or
"the PDK in Cayman has shorter gearing from the MT, because they wanted to sell more PDKs."


or
"the 911 has shorter 1st and 2nd gear ratios again to give an advantage."
<- maybe 911 is more rear biased and can put more torque on the road?


I wasn't responding just to you, but I was a bit bored to make all the quotations.


Hope the best to your decision.
