A PDK would be a marriage breaker for *me*. I just can't, can't, can't wrap my brain around a roadster with an automatic-- I guess I'm a dinosaur. I've never owned an automatic (my wife's RDX is solely hers, thankyouverymuch), and don't intend to start now.

Long story short, she had an early-gen MT Miata. She got tired of it and decided that she was out of the MT game as every car she'd owned to date was a MT.

So, we sell the MT Miata and her MT Speed 3 and get her a nice Acura RDX-- her "little old lady" vehicle (in her words).

You see where this is going, don't you?

Barely a year later, it's "I *miss* my Miata, and automatics are *boring*."

So, now she has her MT Miata RF-GT and loves it.

So, a MT Boxster is definitely the way we're going to go.

For my sanity if no other reason!
