That response made it seem that you were implying that ECO has lighter steering than normal so that is why everyone is posting that ECO and normal feel the same. I think everyone knows that steering typically changes in sport mode (minus the IS350 F-Sport variants).
My IS350 non F-Sport has tighter steering in Sport mode. Certain of it. Now I don't have sport+ mode so maybe they reserved the tighter steering for sport+ on the cars equipped with it.

I had noticed at times my steering seemed tighter and didn't make much of it. Never made the connection to sport mode until I tested several times yesterday.

Didn't test much between normal and eco (think I drove in eco 1 time since owning the car) but it seemed the same.
