OP, I think you will figure out your preferences once the car arrives, as the rest of us did. If you're concerned about auto rev-match, it can be coded off in all modes; again, not something you should worry about until the car comes. Living in NorCal, unless you decide to take the car on a ski trip in Tahoe and have to drive in snow, Eco mode will be useless anyway.

Sport+ for me all of the time as well - with DSC off (oops, did I say that ). The "bucking bronco" issue is definitely more likely to happen with a 6MT in Sport+ vs Sport/Efficient (happens to me occasionally). But proper foot control can prevent it.

I wish there was a way for there to be separate controls for Sport+ throttle and the rest of the Sport+ engine setting. Because that damn throttle is the worst. Yeah, we can learn to control it, but why do we have to? There's other benefits to driving in S+ on the street, but they're somewhat ruined by that touchy throttle
I know it's not exactly the same thing but my old E90 had a "power" button whose sole purpose was to make the car buck like a bronco when you weren't careful. I mean the fucking thing didn't actually add more power or anything. But the great thing about that button is that I could keep it off forever. I'd gouge it out of the console if I weren't worried about resale. |

This is what keeps me from using sports+ all of the time. I plan to drive my car for many more years and most of the time I'm in moderate to heavy traffic where I cant take advantage of the throttle. I cant be bothered to tweak it either every time I want to pass someone or take off at a light, so I make due with regular sport mode. I wish the throttle mapping could be adjusted independantly of the other sports+ features.

ISTM that once you are "on boost" the full throttle acceleration rate is the same regardless of throttle setting. Is there an overboost facility? I'd love to read a proper explanation of the cars boost control. |

Efficient is only for keeping the neighbors from hating me in the morning. Otherwise Sport+ all the time...only because of 6MT and like to rev match for myself. I never had problem with throttle response in the '15 or the '18. Butt dyno feels the same to me between the 2 cars in sport+, but the diff in the '18 is much more tame.
Of course could get a custom engine program that would shut off rev matching in efficient and/or sport. But won't do that under warranty.

Sport+ most of the time and Sport only in bumper to bumper
I sometimes need to go with sport in bumper to bumper because the car can just jump so fast and some other cars don’t accelerate that instantaneously.Basically I use sport to not bully some of the non performance cars.It doesn’t really become necessary when you are behind something else high performance .
For some odd reason it’s never ever been a problem when I am behind another M Car. I CANT FOR THE LIFE OF ME FIGURE OUT WHY ? |
