Congrats on the purchase fella.
How different is it coming from the 6 sport to the 6 mps?

How different is it coming from the 6 sport to the 6 mps? A fair difference! At first I thought it wasn't as fast as I thought because the Sport really has lift on hard acceleration but then I looked down at the speedo..! It certainly handles speed well and deffo don't realise how fast you're going, I need to be careful! Lol. Trying to shift my Sport so I can buy a new exhaust for the MPS!

They are very deceptive, it happened on my first test drive of a 3mps, you dont realise just how fast you are going until you clock the speedo

Good reference photo for those who spot a sport and think they've seen an mps. The differences are pretty clear but I just think people see the bigger spoiler on the sport and assume that that is the performance model.
