I'm new to GTS ownership. I might RTFM one day soon. Just curious, what feature/ option do you enjoy most on the car.


I know this is not an option, but I'm really enjoying the savage downshift engine sounds. Would really like to learn more about what you guys love so I can try them out/ appreciate them too.

They certainly were.. A technology which has struggled to see its way into mainstream vehicles for decades.

We have an E class that turns the lights just before you make the steering turn yourself. I think it is relying on it's Nav to detect you're coming to a corner,...and the lights turn 1st ! Technology eh ?!

The 'new' Rollers use the sat nav to select which gear to be in....

All has been said before but one feature is the little buttons on the rear of the steering wheel. If you have the sat nav on the screen you can zoom in/out.
But one feature I really like is the endless amount of power

My volvo has LED matrix lights. It's just eary how it illuminates everything on main beam except for the little notch where the car in front is to avoid blinding the driver. And that notch tracks the car in front so as it swings left or right the notch moves as well. Very eary and sometimes quite annoying!

Nobody has mentioned the magic "Sport" button. Oh my - press that and the magic starts. I know it's going to suck up fuel quicker than an alcoholic at an open bar and the suspension gets a bit too stiff (with the skyhook system) but the additional throttle response coming out of corners and the howl / bark / growl (and other dog-type noises) with the open exhaust port open just puts a huge grin on my face.

I kind of like the electric door openers and the noise of the window sealing up into the frame when you close - it sets you up for the fun ahead.
