2014vs2015cls63

Hey guys I had a CL63 traded for a F10M5 and now itching to get back in a amg..I drove a 2015 cls63 Sand loved it. My questions: is the 2014 shift as fast/as responsive as the 2015? I've read the software is diff..does the 2014 have the S+ mode? There was like no lag on takeoff in the 2015..is that the case for2014? Thanks in advance! Cheers!

There is a thread on AMG private lounge on this. The latest tranny was a combination of software and mechanical updates, which they won't disclose. There is a software update for 2014's that supposedly gives you better response.
