Sport pkg Sport mode

I turn off the S-Mode 95% of the time. The LSD is garbage, the brakes are good if you change pads and fluid, and the 19" wheels are okay. No

Just curious, but why do you turn it off? Do you find it annoying, or do you just like to heel toe?

Me too, it's almost like an OCD tick, I always do two taps to the left when going to neutral before letting off the clutch, did the same in all my cars before. But now with the 370 I have grown to like the light exhaust note coming to a stop at a traffic light with two hits in neutral bc of s mode.
