Beautiful sport mode
Beautiful sport mode
Noticed today that when in sports mode the exhaust/engine turns itself up and is very noticeable. I used to use the kickdown feature in D mode for optimal acceleration in gear but from now on I will make sure I shift to S first. Lovely little find. You all probably already knew this. Great suprise to me.

If it's like S on my box it also "tightens" the throttle making for sharper response there too

Re: Beautiful sport mode
As a follow up this video demonstrates it quite well I think.

Love the sound of the new set up! Obviously being "speakered" in, it's controversial but I like

How can you tell? Is it because of the change in volume?hlbeckley wrote:Love the sound of the new set up! Obviously being "speakered" in, it's controversial but I like
