Always wondered why they don't have GTS caveats on there. "Sport-lowered/low depending on speed."
I guess they assume that people know their GTS is 10mm lower in Normal to begin with and so the generic settings remain the same. Converse is true for CT models which are 10mm higher.

I notice now that you can have the 10mm reduced height reversed on some GTS models - 911 for one - in the options list.

I thought:
- CT was +20mm higher?
- GTS was same ride height as others (just stiffer tune)?

I kid you not!
only got 2 speeding tickets in the past 32 years. The first was 30km too fast in the old 911.. the second was my brother in law picking us up from our wedding night in my car…
I always stick to the rules, they’re there for a reason. But love to drive with fast cornering and traction.
Time for edit…
I really got to know my car in the past 5500 kms and speed limits feel like a standstill. My speed went up - a lot - as long as traffic allows it. Long live flitsmeister!
Man, I LOVE this car!

I always drive with a uniden R8W now, because sometimes I catch myself going way over the speed limit. This car is awesome indeed.

I moved from a Panamera Turbo-S to a Taycan GTS. There's a depression in the road I travel to/from work which feels way more severe in the Taycan so I assumed the suspension couldn't handle it - then I noticed how much faster I was driving! 😲🤔:like:

I almost bought a GTS but got a 4S in the end.
Honestly I’m glad I did not get the GTS, this car is plenty fast to say the least! GTS would have been to much I think!

Not much between 4S and GTS in terms of outright speed, but the extra finesse in handling and poise are definitely worth it. I was tempted to go Turbo but thought my licence wouldn't survive.

I would be too tempted by the extra torque and go bezerk at every occasion
