Default 2002 Sport Shift

I noticed that 02 models, and newer, have a sport shift mode with the Tips does the 01 have that and if not is it that big of a improvement?...thanks

Default Started in 02, brings the shift points up closer to redline..

I think it's a great feature for spirited driving.

Default Use it all the time

Just use regular D mode when the car is warming up or cooloing down after spirited driving. Sport mode is great, especially on the highway.

Default Re: Time to read the manual-I have an 02-what is sport shift?

I had an 01 for a few weeks and it had the paddle shifters on the wheel and so does my 02.

Default look at your floor shifter...

Is there and S mode? P, D, R, S
in addition to the +/- tip mode.

S is a sport program of the shift points. It hold the gear longer and somewhat increases the speed of the down shifts.

Default Nice video. Wet roads no less! Looked like there were some rough stretches, though

I cringed over the bumps... but that's because I'm still in the baby-ing phase of ownership. ;-P

Paul - do you NOT have H-Sports? Why not? I'd be interested to know. (I just ordered them.)

Default Oh, sorry, missed it. I don't skim text well. Saw the 710s, Toyguy.... :-\

My H-Sports are literally in the mail. Can't wait.
