Is there a issue with riding on sport s 24/7?? I can't seem to enjoy my car now without having that on... I'm sure I probably waste more gas that way and maybe im ruining something but is it ok to always have that switch on? Occasionally when I'm running low on gas I keep it on ECO but SPORT S 100%... Thoughts?

I only drive in Sport S+ mode...even when running low on fuel haha. I hate driving in Eco because it turns down a/c and laggy throttle response. No harm to constantly drive in Sport mode.

Awesome! Good to know. 😂😂 yea car is not responsive in Eco... I'll leave that mode to the hybrids

I generally go back and forth between normal and sport mode. I like the feel of the car so much better in sport mode though.

I only use normal mode in the rain and I don't drive in the rain (⌐■_■)

When I bought the car, the Lexus Tech guy said that there is an option in the menu where you can leave the car in sport mode and you don't have to keep making the change... Haven't tried it yet... I'm just lazy to go through the menu. I find it easier to click the dial 1 time to the right

There is no such option in the menu to leave the car in sport mode. Thats BS tech is wrong.

Tony - The [so-called] 'Lexus Tech guy' lied to you! He knew full-well there was no option to do that. No more so than if he had said there was an option to flip a switch and the engine becomes a twin-turbo V8...

When I was buying my car an older woman wanted to know if they could lock her car in ECO mode and she was told "Sorry maam there's no option to do such. Sounds like the "Tech" was talking out of his rear..

Well he didn't say that there was a specific sport s mode in the menu but there some type of mode where where you go on the menu then vehicle then something with the drive... Can't really remember but I ask "does that make it drive like if I had it in sports mode?" And he said "yes"... I'll try and go on menu later and find it

Well the 2016 has a Customize mode....so maybe they were referring to that being set on the screen. Idk if it allows the customized setting to be default when starting though...

Sport mode paired with an Apexi throttle controller is so fun!! Even more sensitive throttle.
