The Porsche 911 GT3 has a problem in California, with the manual not allowed on the road

While the state of California has no problem with the machine, the sale of the manual had to be banned due to excessive noise.


The Porsche 911 GT3 is often rated as one of the most breathtaking sports cars today, which also offers customers an interesting choice. Thanks to the recently introduced more civilian version of the wingless Touring, the car can blend in better with the crowd, but thanks to the choice between a seven-speed PDK automatic and a six-speed manual, it still offers a unique driving experience. But not for everyone.

During the presentation of the Porsche 911 GT3 Touring model for the American market, it became clear that those interested in the sunny state of California will not be able to order a car with a manual transmission. The classic concept with three pedals would be illegal on California roads due to above-limit noise, which prevented it from being approved by the CCR (California Code of Regulations).
