How Many Here Drive in Normal Mode?
Just curious: How many of you keep your TT/TTS Individual settings on Sport or Sport + vs how many leave your car in Normal setting for routine driving? I had a 4 GTS I kept in Normal and it was fine but the TTS is so much more fun in Sport, I am thinking of leaving it there. I don't see much difference in MPG between Normal and Sport. Curious if others using Sport all the time? Thanx.

Sport 90% of the time. Individual 5% (setup as sport plus without the wing extension). Sport Plus exclusively for track duty.
don’t know about the MPG difference and don’t care
when my car is in Sport Plus, average MPG is 4.6

Thanks. Yea not too worried about mpg on a car like this but found it interesting I wasn't seeing much difference over time between Sport and Normal. The problem I find is that I can't shut of the Start/Stop without setting up and Individual setting and using that.

My turbo is my daily driver and I do mainly use Normal mode for the daily commute. It makes for a more relaxed drive and I tend to drive less aggressively in that mode.

I haven’t gotten used to the throttle response in normal. I tend to underestimate how much to depress the pedal to get the expected response.
I’ve only had the car a couple weeks though and it’s in the shop for paint touch up on front bumper, PPF & ceramic
to be honest I think I have some withdrawal symptoms. I mainly use sport plus mode, but I’ve just read that car & driver got their best zero to sixty in sport with a 5000 rpm launch using the boost button (might be the wrong name, I’m referring to pushing the mode selector wheel)
can’t wait to try the technique

I always start out in normal and immediately turn off the start stop. Once it’s been running for a minute or two I switch over to sport or my individual setting, which is also sport.
I use sport plus when I’m doing launch controls.
I don’t think I have used the sport response button yet
does anybody use that routinely?

MPG is like a golf score, the lower the number the more fun you’re having.
I didn’t think the car was ever meant to be driven in Regular mode- it’s done by Porsche for emissions, mpg, start stop and noise regulations.
My car is in 5th gear at 25mph in Regular mode before I leave my neighborhood and I always thought (I’m probably wrong) it’s worse to lug your engine then rev it reasonably.
Even driven slowly I find Sport mode to be perfect, shifts exactly how I would and it’s ready to go at the slightest tip of the gas pedal.
