That ^ is not true. The red line does not change.

Yikes these cars really have become an alphabet soup of electronic driving aids haven't they.

I added to my MT car just to get the Dynamic Engine Mounts, they are worth the price.

The redline actually does change, without Sport Chrono it is what is called a "soft" limit. It begins to rev limit the engine at lower RPMs. With SC on the redline becomes a "hard" limit and the effect is a very abrupt engine cut-off at redline.

Did he really just say this!? I thought people hated the dash clock or as many call it the 'wart'.Seriously...I have the sport chrono feature on my 05 C2s and love it. IMHO the whole dynamic of the vehicle changes at the push of a button for sport driving. Great as compared with other cars, think BMW, where there are multiple setitings to adjust for sport driving.
