Why would you like that there are no buttons on the steering wheel? Isn't that a bit inconvenient, where you must take your eyes off the road to do some basic things? And is there even cruise control in the PDK version with no steering wheel controls?
@sundaymorningdrives6 күн бұрын
@ikigai47 If you track your Porsche or drive it hard on the backroads you will know what we mean. I have a 992 GT3 with buttons on the steering wheel, and it is super annoying when I touch it while driving on the track with gloves on. Porsche usually have cruise control on the steering column, so doesn't matter if there is buttons on the steering wheel or not.
