Went to test drive a turbo today since the dealer is right across from where I work. I realize that the normal mode was relatively comfortable. Sport mode was pretty acceptable compared to my current car (model s plaid; almost always in comfort). Sport plus was another beast, much stiffer and responsive.

How does the GTS Suspension compare? Would normal still feel the same and sport/+ custom dialed for GTS. Im hoping normal doesnt feel like sport mode in a GTS.

Insights please.

I tested a GTS and found the 'normal' a good bit firmer, which meant feeling bumps/potholes on UK roads - a much less desirable drive for casual driving. On the other hand, the 4 and 4S I drove, felt "much" nicer on the exact same roads, and I knew instantly which one would suit us most of the time - our 4S is due early June!

22" rims I bet which is the likely problem as pretty much all UK cars since Feb have had these fitted.

The standard rim size will be the sweet spot and the reviews I've read have been complimentary.

Overall the GTS has a sports tuned air suspension set up.

On the Taycan I went from a 4S to a GTS on 21" and the ride was just sublime.

Yes indeed, however all three cars had 22" rims, so I conclude the GTS does have a stiffer suspension setup - even though the reviews cover the ride in glory - it just was not my experience.
