Default F Sport Question

I just got my new F Sport and it is phenomenal. I just had 2 quick questions and cannot find it in the manual or online.

1) Do I have to change the drive mode to sport or sport + every time I turn on the car or is there a way to make that the default?

2) I assume that the sport + is everything that the sport is PLUS a few other features, but everything I read says that the sport is more about acceleration and the plus if for suspension. Can anyone clarify?

Thanks in advance!

yes, the only mode it will stay in after you turn off the car is ECO. sport & sport+ have to be dialed in after you start the car.

the sport mode is for better throttle response, sport + dials in firmer suspension, enhanced steering along with better throttle response. BTW congratz on your purchase. we would like to see her so post pics.

Welcome to the F-sport fan! No default setting.. It's fun to twist the ****!

Ignore all the non Lexus owners with no intentions of buying a 4GS!
