I don't follow Porsche enough to know - did they make some changes or something?

Meh... My gun doesn't shit on the floor when I leave it alone for eight hours straigt. 
BTW, that dog never leaves him alone, so there is no poop issue.
FYI, it is the flappy paddle gearbox.

The optional Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK), with both manual gearshift and an automatic mode, enables smooth gear changes with no interruption in the flow of power. This results in significantly faster acceleration and lower fuel consumption, without having to sacrifice the ease of automatic transmission.
In total, PDK has seven gears at its disposal. Gears 1 to 6 have a sports ratio and top speed is reached in 6th gear. The 7th gear has a long ratio and helps to reduce fuel consumption even further.
PDK is essentially two half gearboxes in one and thus requires two clutches

The Grumpster target practices at the range with his handguns several days a week. His office is upstairs, so he didn't hear what was going on. It is probably a very good thing. He would have opened the door with a gun aimed right at those cops

I am home for about as much time as I sleep now. Me owning a dog would border on animal cruelty but I can leave my cats alone and they seem to prefer it.
