Drive my car pretty much always in sport, whether I'm shifting or driving it in auto. Sport + when I'm shifting or I think I'm going to be driving the car hard. Probably 90% time in sport, 10% sport +.

Pretty much the same here. There is a guy on the forum that had his setting changed to where it defaults to sport. Wish I could do that on mine.

This is the web site of the company that does the conversion. Have to put www. in front & .com at the end. They are not a sponsor and I couldn't post without it being a link so had to be creative.

I always drive in sport except for when I'm shifting myself. In that case, I'll sometimes put it in sport+. Never drive in the normal mode.

I always drive in Sport, and play with Normal and Sport+ once in a while. I have never been able to get used to the on/off gas saver setting. It still creeps me out too much to have the engine cut off.

City driving, Sport

Back roads depending on curves, Sport & SP

Highway boring driving greater than 50 miles, Comfort which is still very fast.

While I honestly can't state that I find "comfort" not fast enough under normal circumstances, i must agree about the auto on/off. This thing really weirds me out.

1. I find it much slower than my c2s was at going from coast mode to "lets go".
2. I have had the car go into shutoff mode at least 2x so far while the car was still moving. I was slowing to a stop, but hadn't actually stopped moving. In my C2S, I could sorta keep it at a very slow roll to prevent it from going off in those situations where you are stopping at a deserted stop sign or other area where you might be slowing down just long enough to let someone go in front of you in traffic.

Thank you, but it seems it doesn't work for the 997.2. Only the 991/981

The most disconcerting thing to me about the on/off mode is when I am in the middle of a busy intersection trying to turn left at a light against cross traffic and the engine cuts out.

I never drive with the engine "on/off" button activated. I'm just glad the car has the ability to always "remember/default" to that being switched off! I hate it in any car I have and never use it! Wish it was an option on a car versus always being installed. Seems most cars have these Eco buttons now *thumbs down*

I believe that you will find the car to be in another dimension, but especially in SP. Have fun and be safe.

trek737 has a spectacular aura abouttrek737 has a spectacular aura about
Never use normal...
Sport maybe 10%
Sport plus or PDCC on 90%

I like the firmer ride... I guess I want it to feel like sports car... If I were to take it on a long highway drive / road trip maybe normal would be selected...

Still miss the stick as PDK is just a let down for me... But I always select the manual setting as I want to be involved in what the car is doing... I just don't find it as engaging as a manual...
