So maybe this is new to me but I find myself constantly driving in Sport+ mode even when not needed just to hear the engine/exhaust. But I feel a bit guilty as well as it seems like I am showing off as everyone on the street starts staring. Especially when the crackles and pops start.

So I am just wondering if most people also drive in this mode and then I can feel less guilty..

StrikeTeam

LOL.. that's all I drive in unless the weather is bad. Its a wolf in sheeps clothing. Most of the world doesn't know its a beast until they hear the exhaust. Its why i chose this car over others.

I even start up in "wake the neighbors mode".

Don't feel guilty. Enjoy the car!

Don't feel bad. I do the same StrikeTeam does. Sport+ unless bad weather. I think the reason why people look at it is because to keep quoting StrikeTeam, "Its a wolf in sheeps clothing". Very nice clothing at that. I have to be honest, I love this car and I can't stop looking at it even when it is in my garage. To me, it is a blessing that I can have a car like this one and enjoy it. So do not feel guilty because you drive it like it is supposed to. Just don't be a d*&$ on the road so that we can change MB owner stereotype.


You wouldn't tell your wife to stay at home or not to look nice because people are staring at her right? Same thing. Feel good. Enjoy it. Be humble...

I'm just at 960 miles and I couldn't resist not having it in Sport+, its just a different beast in that mode and is intoxicating

vaelin

Almost always have it in I mode (Sport+ everything except suspension C.)

It would be a crime not to drive in sport+ most of the time

I do 90 percent of my driving in race with manual shifts. The other 10 percent is when I'm taking my elderly mother somewhere.

S+ only!

M177ED1

In reality there are only two modes S+ (For commuting and daily driving) and RACE for all others 🏁

You have giant size *****, my friend... I'm likely to do the same when my coupe arrives because I want ***** like yours....

M177ED1

Ones you start daily driving in S+ you won't want to drive in anything else. Except when it's pouring rain, then comfort mode comes in handy, you know to make that thing called traction

auditoamg

Traction shmaction..... LOL

I do drive in S+ most of the time! don't feel guilty dude she's made to awaken people surrounding her

I enjoy it the most after a long drive on the highway, the exhausts just sound amazing!

Have to admit, there's an MB near me with a very loud exhaust. Every time he pulls out I think "What an @sshole. Must be a kid." Now I've ordered a car with the sport exhaust. Wonder if I'll ever push the button? Loved loud cars through my early 40s, but as a 50-something business owner, it just doesn't feel right any more.

PR2000

That's why you need tinted windows! I push the button when I get on the main road away from my house. At work it's full on Sport + mode

CPatrick

Unless I'm on a U.S. thruway, I'm in S+ mode. You can still hit 140+ mph very quickly, while in Comfort mode!

CPatrick

I'm a 50 something business owner, also. Believe me, you'll solder that "button" in the on position!

Sheepy

Unless your someone's mom I don't know of anyone who isn't in S+ the whole time, be it MB, Audi, BMW, etc.

ignomini

Now you'll really laugh at me. My commute is 80 miles per day. If I can't get a little over 320 miles per tank, I will hate life. Otherwise, I probably would end up in permanent Sport+ mode.

Wound up in an S4 because the then current M3 didn't have enough range.

sports and sports + but i turn off the suspension to stiff for Daily drive

emederos

I just got mine and I only drive in sports +, sounds so much better.
