Default How many of you use Sport mode?

Lately I've found myself playing around in sport mode more and more. In fact, I'm beginning to really enjoy it. I really like how it adapts to your driving style. Redlines it in a heartbeat when punching it or smoothly yet aggressively shifting at around 4k-5k rpms. Maybe my favorite part about the sport mode is when coming to a semi abrupt stop and hearing the throttle blip. I can never get tired of that.

Don't get me wrong, I still love the paddles but have discovered the joy of kicking it into sport mode every now and then. :-p

Default I do, I do!

Not as often, but yes, I do. Since I do almost all street driving, I know that when I use it, I'm killing my gas mileage even more, so I try not to get too addicted to it.

I like playing with my paddles.

Default Sport mode is the only way to go (in my opinion)

The TT DSG and A3 DSG I found to be more enjoyable in Sport mode. Plus, you can still use the paddles to shift when you need to (you can also do that in D mode as well)

Default You're right..

I like the fact you can still manipulate the paddles even in D or S mode.
