Limited Edition Carrera T style exotic layered wood shift knob — Pre-order -- 997/987/996/986

Levinson Performance Layered Hardwood Manual Shift Knob

Pre-production orders: shipping is expected in late November 2026 for all versions, including five-speed and six-speed options.

Production Confirmed—Pre-Production Pricing Still Available

Thanks to the enthusiastic response from the Porsche community, we reached our initial goal of 30 pre-orders. This limited-production shift knob is officially moving forward.

For a limited time, you can still reserve yours at the special pre-production price of $159. Once finished products begin shipping, the regular price will be $199.

For years, Porsche enthusiasts have admired the beautiful layered-hardwood shift knob inspired by the legendary 718 race car and offered on the limited-production 992 Carrera T. Unfortunately, Porsche never created a comparable option for the 997-generation 911 or the 987 Cayman and Boxster.

Until now.

The Levinson Performance Layered Hardwood Shift Knob brings that timeless, heritage-inspired appearance to the 997 and 987 manual-transmission models.

This is not a cosmetic overlay or a modified factory part. It is a completely new replacement shift handle engineered with the correct factory-style internal cam-lock attachment—no set screws—along with the proper forward-offset ergonomics, a genuine laminated exotic-hardwood ball, and your choice of a five- or six-speed shift pattern.
