Net net, I have no idea why anyone would want an automatic 928.

I have always liked 928s.

I always thought the same thing (RE: auto 928), or any vehicle with an automatic trans.

But, now that I'm older, I can see the merit. I love my Boxster S 6 speed. I'd rather have that than a boxster with a tip or PDK.

BUT, I could definitely see the merit of having something like a Panamera, Cayenne, Mercedes, etc.. that was less of a sports car, and more of a touring car with an automatic for when I'm driving with the missus. She does love to go for a drive with me in the Boxster and is OK for me letting it out a bit, but there are also times when a slightly more relaxed, easier drive is nice.
