Not that. Dun think it's even possible to do so. I am just not confident enough to go manual with a high powered car cos money shift is no joke.

I am in no hurry to replace the car with another exotic at the moment. I will probably buy a lightly used 488 sometime late this year. I don't trust first year production exotics. Gotta give them some time to stabilize. I am also getting tired of loosing massive cash going new. I lost 25% of the value after 1.5 years. As it was, the Speciale was hardly driven. The nature of my business does not allow me to be seen in an exotic at least not politically correctly. I might first get a 991.2 C2S for daily driving. Where I am, exotics are not suitable to be driven to many basement car parks due to narrow drive ways, steep inclines, etc...A lightly used Huracan is also on my radar. As far I know, that thing doesn't make rubber duckling sound when pushed. The rear ground clearance on the Huracan is surprising forgiving (not Vic's car though). I see many reversing all the way till the rear tires touched the car park stopper. We reverse park here for the most part. If i do that in my Speciale, the rear diffuser would be destroyed. The huracan is also more compact in dimension, which is surprising considering that it is lugging around a V10. Anyway, there should quite a fair bit of option in the market considering the lack lustre economy in this part of the world.
