It just seems that you never really stay in a gear that long. I’m the kind of guy that likes to build power, shift, build power, shift, cruise. Too much shifting in between and it starts becoming a job and not a joy.

By now you know Porsche’s offering a 7-speed manual transmission on the new 2012 Porsche 911. It turns out, according to CarEnvy.ca, who somehow were magically able to liberate a photo of the new shift knob, that the shift pattern we first showed you last month is absolutely the correct layout.

So, yeah, as we said before, that image above? It shows the new 7-speed manual transmission layout.
