Does it feel quick even when not at full throttle or does the lack of torque hinder it?

Plenty quick enough

Makes Porsche feel a bit slow and yet the autocar road test results show there is barely anything in them

Nice. Also, any idea how the sports exhaust sounds compared to the stock exhaust?

At OP: nice spec, the buckets I found particularly comfy compared to the super sport seats.

Not that I can reliably remember, I drove a stock one at the millbrook event road route a couple of months ago. I remember feeling a little disappointed back then but it still sounded nice

Mine with sports sounds awesome!

One of my lasting memories from Millbrook was the sound from the sports exhaust as the pro drivers took people off for the fast laps round the short handling circuit at full throttle, the sound was awesome :jump:
