Tonight I decided to venture into sport plus with my GTS . With 1200 miles I felt that despite a few speed sprints I hadn't tested the full monte . That changed tonight .

1) Sport Plus has become even more sophisticated . In older 911's the rev's only shifted at redline . That has changed a little . For instance I put it to SP at 10 mph as I entered an on ramp to an empty road . I wanted to be sure no other cars were there so I took the car to 30 mph slowly . When I saw the all clear I punched it. SP takes the car all the way to redline , the shifts are immediate and it will downshift if needed when slowing down .

2) The sound and pull are just awesome . Its fast enough ti feel sufficient and balanced enough with the RWD / lightweight package to feel agile .

When I shifted it back tl sport to drive home I replayed the event and thought about how much I love this car . I had been daily driving it all day running tasks . Its the perfect blend of what I needed .

Lol, I can feel all that emotions already in normal mode but I agree, in SP I have all the respect for the car. The sound is simply amazing!

I’m going to mess around with Sport Plus today with the Manual to see if I can identify any difference.

I thought you were not supposed to redline the car during break in?

Uh oh Pontiff….time for a quick confession!

I have 1200 miles. I followed the protocol pretty nicely until now. One thing I forgot to mention is it just before it hits the red line exhaust note resonance is just sublime. Combine with the light weight package where I hear the sound right at its peak create such a mind blowing experience.

I tried to compare the acceleration with my modified 911turbo. I would love to run them against each other. Both are fast but they’re different in the driver experience with it.

So I tried out the Sport Plus this morning and I noticed a firmer ride for sure VS. just Sport…I’m sure that’s a common response…stay well!

Awesome. By then you should have your car as well. So you’ll have a little seat time to have learned the car.

I know! It’s the first thing I set when I start it up!

@BobbyG
I cannot believe you clocked 5200 miles already. I wonder if Larry is on track for 100k miles with the new gts😜

Don’t be a hater but it’s my daily driver. No way Larry is even close!

Well 5k in three months is kind of 100k.

Technically 4 months and I always take the long way home!

I have 2200. My 911 Turbo is in a pickle . The engine is out and all the coolant piping and hoses are being replaced . I have been stomping on the 992 GTS

"The engine is out and all the coolant piping and hoses are being replaced"!!!! That's NOT good news.
