Hi everyone, I have been reading these forums for some time now and need a bit of advice.

I have been looking for a 2012+ Carrera S for a couple months now. I have found one that has almost everything I want, except the sports chrono.

I honestly think it makes the car look sporty but how much real value does it bring to the car and what are the true advantages.

I appreciate any input.

CSK 911 C4S

I don't use it's function or sport plus mode very often.

Makes the dash look cool.

Don't forget dynamic engine mounts that part of the package. If that is important to you, then go for it.

You didn't say if you had a MT or PDK. That makes a big difference.

I would get SC on a MT. Rev matching is awesome! You get gimmics like a G force meter (which is cool) and the point of relaxation of PSM is later which is nice. I can also record track laps on my sport screen and show the track outline as I drive it on the PCM. It's cool. My second favorite option after PSE. It adds more burbles on the PSE during over run and it just sounds better with PSE. A must for me.

I don't drive PDKs (nor will I ever) but I hear SC adds launch control. lol.

The clock is an annoyance more than anything. However, it is a -must have- mod for a PDK car, as it gives you the Sport Plus mode with Launch Control!

Also, I believe it adds dynamic motor mounts.

Didn't order it, don't miss it. YMMV.

subshooter

I didn't order a GT3 either. Do I miss it? Yep.

I passed on it. Did not want Big Ben on the dash and launch control was not a temptation for me. Of the package, just wanted the motor mounts. Might be worth it if you are a track guy, I'm not.

If your are planning to track the car or drive with spirit you will love the sport chrono. For a daily driver you will not miss it in my humble opinion.

Also depends how long you plan to keep the car. May certainly help you for resale.

What is Sports Chrono?

ipse dixit

Dynamic engine mounts, launch control and/or rev matching.

Not an insignificant addition to the car.

I would want it.

It was one of my required options when looking.

No sports chrono = dealbreaker
