It is a world of a difference, how bad is it on thr car to go with sport mode often? Flooring the car is sport mode makes it feel rather fast

I have the CL500, yes a big difference in the ride between the 2 modes,you can use the S mode as much as you want to, the S mode is a first gear start, where as the C is a second gear start. If I was always driving on my own I would keep it in the S mode

Some newer MB models switch back to C on restart for economy. I like it that my 2008 stays on S through a power cycle.
