What suspension mode setting do you keep it on?

Would like to get a consensus on how many owners keeps their suspension mode on

Comfort
or
Sport
or
Sport II

for myself, always, all the time “Sport” mode.

how about you?


Cheers!

I change it based on road surface quality.

Sport+ trans and suspension as soon as I start it up, I like how it switches off ECO as well in sport+

alternatively I start the car and hit the AMG button which has sport+ programmed as well as sport+ suspension

I never use comfort or sport ... trans mode or suspension

I immediately switch to Sport trans (always), and leave it in Comfort suspension for around town driving since our road surfaces are such poor quality. If I take a spirited drive, switch to Sport suspension. My AMG button is set to Sports+ for both and I use that when I’m ready to smoke somebody haha

Correction: only time I use comfort mode is at the track to give it a raked look so that the rear plants a little bit better on launch

Personally, I cannot stand the look of comfort mode suspension. The rear sits simply too damn high. It truly ruins the look of the car IMO. Thus, always been on Sport suspension mode.

6 years now sitting on sports mode. Even with drop links in the back, comfort looks way to goofy
