Throttle seems to sluggish in Normal plus the engine stop/start thing. I only run Normal mode at speed on the freeway.

I drive in normal mode until the car is warmed up . I also flip to normal in traffic . Outside off that its sport mode .

I live in the DC area and my 992 is my daily driver. Because half the people in my area can't drive properly I am literally in Sport Plus mode over 50% of the time. Comes in so handy when I am trying to get onto the highway and cars never want to let you on and basically hope you crash off onto the side of the road. Sport Plus mode for me makes those cars look like dots by the time I am actually on the highway.

^ I don't know, Sport Plus mode to me seems too aggressive for regular driving.

I prefer saving that mode for when I'm about to go all out on the back roads. Otherwise, Sport Mode is a happy middle ground for me between aggression and usability.
