Too bad, I found Sport mode to be unusable for anything other than straight line acceleration. The normal Drive mode does a great job on the highways, the only time I feel that I need to go to Manual mode is driving at highway speeds on steep inclines, where it likes to shift into 6th when it cannot maintain speed in that gear. If you know you're going to pass in Drive mode you can just hit the gas one to two seconds early to allow it to select the proper gear for the speed you want to pass.
