Find your dream Porsche on the 9WERKS Marketplace: https://9werks.co.uk/classifieds

Porsche's Tiptronic gearbox as often derided as being a distant second-choice to a six-speed manual transmission for the 996 and 997-generation 911. But with many thousands of examples available worldwide, is a 911 with Tiptronic transmission really that bad?! I take a Porsche 996 Targa for a real-world road test and reveal every stat you need to know about the 911's automatic gearbox for the early Millennium era. Are you a fan of the Tiptronic gearbox? Do you think it's underrated?

Thanks to Paragon Porsche for the loan of this exquisite, low-mileage 996 Targa example. Paragon's full stock can be viewed on the 9WERKS Marketplace or by visiting paragongb.com.
