Maybe because I'm not as used to high performance/sports car motoring as you, goron. I guess I'm easily pleased!

Sure but you actually feel anything? Say you're on full throttle, then you push the button and it actually pulls much harder?
Maybe I should get a drive of the Panny ST to see

Have used it in a 991.2 C2 and in my Panamera. I definitely felt some effect, although was not already on full throttle when I pushed the button...

Indeed. Although maybe a skilled driver in Sport Plus and manual modes could replicate the effect...?

I don't see why not as the entire system is 'intelligent' and reputedly learns from the ongoing driving style. If so then regularly mimicking Sports Plus should ultimately become the default.

Could the effect you felt be down to the change in the throttle map?Wing Commander wrote: ↑Wed Sep 06, 2017 7:42 pm Have used it in a 991.2 C2 and in my Panamera. I definitely felt some effect, although was not already on full throttle when I pushed the button...
I usually am off throttle or stationary when I change modes, will have to try changing on a heavier throttle and under acceleration and see what happens.

I don't think you will feel much if you are already at full throttle, and I'm not sure you're meant to. However, if you are, say, looking to overtake several cars at once the button works very well to give you everything with one press followed by full throttle and no fiddling about. Works very well in my Boxster S.
