Jaguar gets it
Jaguar bringing a manual transmission to the F type:
While the Jaguar eight-speed automatic transmission offers an excellent blend of shift speed, comfort and refinement, there will always be a select group of enthusiasts who want the satisfaction which comes from changing gear manually. To meet that demand, a six-speed manual transmission is now exclusively available for the V6 and rear-wheel drive (RWD) configuration. The car features a short-throw gear lever with a travel of only 1.77-inches (45mm), closely-spaced ratios, and pedals well placed for heel-and-toe changes.
Starting at $65,000 for a coupe with a manual tranny. I think I would pick this over a 991 (although I should say I've never had any interest in a 991 anyway).
