congrats on having the 720 finally show up!!!

i drove the 570 Spider for the first time this week and while you can def feel the turbo lag, that thing takes off once on boost.
the 720 most really be crazy!!!

speaking of the 570, one thing that bothered me about it was how early it upshifts when in auto mode.
didn't seem to matter if i was in normal or sport either (didn't try track). putting it in manual solved the problem though.

I always keep the engine in track mode no need for other modes!!! And drive in manual. The nice thing with the Mac paddles is that u can up and down shift on one paddle. This comes in useful when you not driving hard with both hands on the wheel - like holding your Starbucks you can still up and down shift lol 😂.

my AD has a 5270r and 5270g - unopened box and papers available. Yours for the taking. After the 720 and buying my wife a Patek for our anniversary, I’m tapped out.
