Just a running update. About 4000 miles added here.
I still like the Porsche GTI mobile.
Handles pretty well for lacking the adaptive dampers. The GTI engine is fine. In 85% of the driving it propels the 4000lb vehicle okay. I think the PDK makes up for the engine’s deficiencies. Mostly.
There’s still a hole where there’s no power going from cruising speed (say 80 mph) to passing speed (say 85 to…..9x mph). The PDK has to kick down to 4th gear. Takes awhile.
Sold the GLC43. I just couldn’t recover from that stupid 9G Trionic transmission. Looking for something fun to complement a very competent Porsche GTI.
