Thumbs up DS mode :)

Last night I tried DS mode for the first time, and WOW.... why did i do that

The car felt like a new car (although i had it only for a little over a month)

What else these cars hide?

Oh yeah, doesn't it make a difference? Try driving with DSC off or DTC off (hold DSC button down for 3 seconds). In either of these off, you will notice much less hesitation from starts and stops and it will feel like a muscle car. But be careful not to wrap it around a telephone pole, though.

I wish DTC off could be used with cruise control.

Try swapping the capacitance coils on your flux capacitor, BIG difference too!

It was fast enough and fun to begin with... Now when i am used to the power, its time to explore other options to entertain driving experience

Some day will play around with (out) DTC. cant wait

If gas goes bye bye with DS, i think tires will go bye bye with DTC off :P

Love my car (glad i didnt end up getting f30 328).

Used DS on the test drive with the paddles.
The salesman said he was glad to be in a car with a guy the could drive it.

Now get the DTC paddles and be ready for a completely different experience.
