What mode do you drive in? How high do you rev?
During normal day to day driving, what mode is your car in? What RPM do you let off the throttle so the car shifts?

Probably..
Depending on how I feel, I will drive home in 4th or 5th gear on the highway doing 65 to 70... Loud, lots of gurgling when the engine winds down...

C, s+ or M, depending on my mood. For some reason, never S :P Same goes for the RPM's. I however rarely redline it due to the fact that i could get a 10k € ticket for speeding even 20kph over the limit. I was on the autobahn with a rented Panamera last week and got a ticket on the autobahn 
drove 170 on a 120. Totally worth it

99% of the time is S mode and usually in the lowest gear for the speed above 35. I love the sound of the exhaust and engine braking too. I'd like to keep my brakes as long as possible, or at least until I decide which aftermarket kit to go with.
