Just watched an auction of Carroll Shelby's personal 427 cobra that sold for $5,000,000. @ Barrett-Jackson. It was an automatic!! So just because you have an automatic doesn't exclude you from enjoying your Porsche.

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I think the 427 has just a little-bit more torque though. Any gear is a good gear in this car, so a slushbox in a monster like this probably doesn't make much of a difference.

Barn996, I appreciate the sentiment, but Shelby's own transmission is irrelevant to my Porsche enjoyment. Now, if you'd mentioned something about ol' Carroll carrying a purse....
