Does 570S or 650S lap what at the Ring?

I would pick a 570 in a heartbeat over a R8. Better performance, more exotic, more exclusive, etc. I guess the only reason I would lean the other way would be if I were really far from a Mac service center (which I'm not).

Someone else might have said this earlier in the thread, but if not, I might also suggest driving a 650s. A very lightly used coupe can probably be found for similar money as a new 570. IMHO, the 650s really is a lot more car

BMW DCTs have auto-creep from the factory, but dealers can program it off. On all others, it cannot, for what I know. I don't mind auto-creep, but my question is if there's a clutch longevity reason for it, as most sports/exotics have auto-creep? Thx. The good news for us non-PDK-S Porsche owners is it's easy to paddle-shift to N on stop lights, if desired

In the old days of Ferrari F1 (360 for example) they told you not to let it creep as it actually destroyed the clutch. Clearly that's a different animal however.

Might be important to some, maybe not.
