Sport mode, wow

:
2017 CX-5 GT w/ Premium Pkg.
Had the car for about a week now and thought it already has great power for a 4banger. Yesterday I tried sport mode for the first time, man it was fun lol Acceleration felt stronger and actually pushed me back against the seat when I was getting on to the freeway. I haven't felt that since my 2002 maxima (255hp/246tq) Overall acceleration and passing was so much quicker and after turning off sport mode the car felt more bleh. I know all it does is it let the car rev higher or something but that was fun lol Won't use it too often tho, eats too much gas.
 
Yeah the same here I was in sport mode a lot these past few days lol Mines staying in normal mode for most of the time from here on in
 
Sport mode is awesome. I didn't wait a week to find that out. It's seems to do much more than just delay shift points. It definitely feels like it increase power and responsiveness. I did notice that it was holding low gears a bit too long at high revs while doing some curvy canyon driving. But, the shift paddles come in handy for that.
 
I am jealous you guys have the sport button, my 6 doesn't have one haha. and if i do want one i gotta get a GT with the tech package, lol
