In today’s PorscheCooled Podcast Michael and Steve are back again chatting about all things Porsche. Yep, Steve is back! Michael has sorted out his 997 insurance and is happy with the result. Steve has completed his paint correction and ceramic coat on his 997 GT3 and reflects on the 70+ hours to complete - the process and results. Looks like no more waxing for Steve from now on.   Michael wants to chat about the essence of Porsche and unticking the options boxes - let's go back to basics. Continuing the Porsche chat; is a Tiptronic transmission better than a manual? A post on a Porsche forum has started a discussion on todays episode. Is the Tip just something that needs to be learned to be enjoyed? Steve doesn’t agree. Then Steve wants to talk about the ‘bog standard’ 997.1 GT3 shifter. Steve wasn’t impressed with his and changed it shortly after he purchased his GT3.    Welcome back to the PorscheCooled Podcast.
