Decision time - what does "S" (sport mode?) do to performance?

[LALoner]

At the end of next month, I will be ready to pull the plug on an F-3. The question is, just what does the "S" (sport mode?), do to performance?

As I understand it, all it really does is relax the "nanny" to allow a more spirited ride. Is that correct?

If that is all, I think I will go with a 2023 rather than wait for a '24 model. The '24, again as I understand it, has very few things that are not available on the '23.

• seating for two. (although somewhat spartan).
• the larger inst. cluster with a few goodies which I may or may not utilize.
• a different method of shifting into reverse

That's about all I can find. I may have missed something, but I believe I can save $4G and have all I want with the '23 without the 4 or 5-month wait.

Am I correct in my thinking?
