Porsche’s Sportomatic gearbox was the first semi-automatic gearbox used in a 911. Its design allowed the driver to change gears with a traditional shifter, while removing the need for a clutch pedal. How does it work, and what’s it like to drive? We find out with a test drive of a Porsche 911 with 3-speed Sportomatic gearbox. This stunning Carrera 3.0 with Sportomatic gearbox, with just 34,000 original miles on the clock, is for sale at Paragon Porsche. Further details here.
