2014 Matte Black G550
Sport Mode / Sport Suspension

Hi! I am new to this forum! Does always driving the car in sport mode and sport suspension hurt it in the long run? I know that it will eat tires and gas, but I am not worried about that!

Thanks guys!

KSAX.

I'm permanently in sport mode, I don't mind it and kinda like it actually. If I want to conserve gas on the highways I use the paddles to shift at lower RPM.

I know you guys with the E550 beasts love that horsepower, but my little E350 engine sure bops along when I hookup with the asphalt in Sport mode : ) My main consolation is I'm saving $$ on gas and tires!

Ditto. Not nearly as quick as my C63, but that V-6 puts power to the ground. 8-10 better MPG than the C63.
