Another C4s, this time 2014. agate over red leather with red top, PDK, no SC though.
Original MSRP 142, 640
asking 84, 823 with 25,000 miles.
almost 60K off original MSRP and its CPO
Newb question...what's the benefit of SC in a Cab, regardless of whether it's PDK or MT? I wonder if a Cab is more HFS if doesn't have SC. Thanks!
Sport Chrono features are discussed at length elsewhere and there are several benefits, but the key issue for this discussion is that without sport chrono, you don't get the sport+ map programing for the PDK transmission. And without the sport map, the PDK can be kind of 'lazy'. Cabriolet has no impact one way or the other.
Again, personal opinions... Some never use sport+ mode even if they have SC, but most here think PDK - SC = find a different car.
On a manual transmission, you decide when to shift, so less of an impact. You still lose active motor mounts, different throttle tuning, and auto-blip downshifts. It is still certainly desirable, but not the deal-breaker it is in a PDK car (in my opinion).
if you are not going to track the car, and with a convertible that is probably the case, not important IMHO.
I don't view it all all as a 'track only' feature. I simply hate lazy shifting transmissions even if I'm driving a back road. Heck, for that matter I hate lazy shifting even around town. As I said, others don't seem to care as much, but I'd definitely spend some time with a SC/PDK car before making your decision...
I thought HFS was more about simply a good price on a 991 not requiring a certain package to qualify.
Been wanting to ask this for a while, but I finally stepped into a 911 and was wondering if I got a good deal. Did I manage to get a HFS or simply meh? A stripper model but it came up when I was looking at getting a 997.2 C2S, test drove it, and liked it. I checked on the manheim site and it was basically dealer auction price.

I wish it had pasm/sc but after the drive... I realized that I didnt really need those options, the base c2 is really good already.
