: Sport button on 07 MCS?

Ive just brought an '07 MCS in laser blue. Ive just parted with my '53 Cooper and the difference is crazy! I absolutely love it!

Anyway I was just wondering what pressing the sport button does regarding gearbox/steering etc.?

Throttle response is without lag...more sensitive.
Transmission shift points change to maximize RPM's per each gear before change.
Steering becomes stiffer.

I've just got an 07 one too... I've found the sport button just makes me laugh!

Makes the exhaust crack and pop nicely too! Good for scaring pedestrians ;)

It turns the volume on the stereo up to 11.

also makes the car stupidly boring when you turn it off!
