Will the coupe go faster if the little swerving car on the dash is lit up? Is the traction control on or off when that car is lit up?

 

The light means that the ESP has engaged.....it does not make the car go faster.

 

if the light is on when you a sitting still, then the traction control is off if it's flashing while taking off or whatever then it is engaged. even with the tc off it's really just less aggresive because the tc still comes on a little under hard accel even with it off

 

with it off its definately faster (at least for an stick) because it doesnt fall over itself when you start up and chirp the tires between shifts.

 

Thanks Ya'll sorry I called it the wrong thing....I really love my car. I feel like I am driving the best kept secret ever....
