Only drive the car around 200 miles so far, but the Red Key is the only way to go! I love how the up & downshifts are in Sport mode.

Question: Is there ANY way to set it up to default to your desired mode? Not a huge hassle setting it up at each start, but it would sure
be nice if we could set a custom mode & 'save' it so it could go back to it with each restart.

The only way I know to quickly do it is to press the physical SRT button twice. It will then immediately go into your custom mode.

Thanks! I will check that out.
Just set everything like you like it and then save it as your Custom mode, then next time you get in the car just quickly press the SRT button twice and it will go straight to your Custom mode.

If you shut the car off in any Mode other than Auto, the car remembers. When you start the car next time, immediately watch the Center Screen at the bottom... a Mode Button displays (along with other choices) with the last Mode you were in somewhat Greyed Out, i.e. Custom... press that button and voila. :) Then you'll see Custom Mode displayed on your Center Driver's Display. No need to Double Tap cause you've already chosen your last Driving Mode. (y)

Best!

I know it's a pain and having the double-tap for Custom mode is convienent, but I have Custom set so if I'm running along and decide to "play" I can quickly get into the setup I like for an off the line, red light launch or a rolling 40 / 60 sprint. I have Custom set for Transmission: Track, Traction: Sport, and Suspension: Street. This gives you better shifting, good traction control, and the Street Suspension gives you a good launch.

Interesting. So I'm guessing you use a button on the steering wheel for that? I'll be trying that out when I get home tonight.

This is the screen you see fairly quickly on the Center Dash every time. If you shut the engine off in Custom or Track or Sport Mode, that Mode will be highlighted on next start cycle. Press the Drive Modes Button & you're good to go where you left off. You can confirm on the Center Driver's Display in the Upper Right Hand Side above the Gear Selection Display. If you don't press the Drive Mode Button before this display goes away, it reverts to Auto Mode. You can actually press multiple buttons here. Each time you do, the display extends its On Time a few seconds.

Best!
