I haven't used the DS mode much because I do a lot of highway driving. Today I put the car in DS and I was impressed with the acceleration and aggresiveness of the throttle. The response is much better then when the car only had 1500 kms on the odo (I know have a little more than 5000).
Flooring it at the trafficlight made the tires squeel a bit and the car accelerated in a straight line. Very very nice..
I am really happy with the DS option and will use it more when I am in a spirited mood!

Downside to the DS mode is that I burn tires on the roundabouts here in the area

I used SD whenever I am in a nice road with few lights. I dont use SD when I am in the highwayt thoght.
But to say the least, using the SD can be addictived.
