Agreed, for some. But only if I wanted a small box glued to my windshield, and wanted to run a front plate. You can conceal that stupid box somewhat, but w/o a front plate I'd just be asking for too much unwanted attention.

Agreed. That drives me nuts. I know the car well enough that I rarely need to touch the breaks in traffic (unless I need to come to a stop); simply easing off the throttle at the right time and engine breaking takes care of the rest. I can't tell you how many times I almost rear-ended the car in front of me when I first played with Eco mode because it shifts to neutral when I let off the throttle!

I don't have a previous version to compare but with 1000 miles on my 2018 240 vert, I can say there is a substantial difference in gas millage when is sport mode compared to non-sport modes.

From my calculations last 500 miles, I am seeing almost a 5 mpg difference on the south side but I think its not directly related to the car itself but the "spirited driving" habit that surfaces when the car is so responsive, she simply begs to be pushed hard and silly me, I comply...
