Is it possible to get the car set up at the dealer to start with the ESP Sport?

Is this just a U.S. thing? I have always assumed it was something that could be set in STAR. Of course, a dealer might not do it, but they aren't the only one with access to do modifications in the software.

It might be possible to tinker around with the STAR programming, but you could also screw up your computer if you don't know what you're doing.

And all that extra steps like turning a dial and pushing various buttons at start-up make it seem like you are flying a plane or starting a race car.

Very true, but once you get in there you can do a lot of cool stuff, at least on some other models, from what I understand. Of course all the menus are in German.

Porsche 911 Turbo S 2014! E63S 14, Audi S8 13, CLS63 12, E550 12, C63 09, all tuned
I know they can program out the Eco mode on the 157 engine when tuning. I will see if they can program out the reset mode too. My CLS is going in for some more mods next week.
