some cars in Snow mode, start in second gear. if that's the case in the FT, then that button is for the AT only. other cars in Snow mode dampen the throttle.
i cant make out if the MT has this button from the brochure pics.
however one clue is in the close up of the AT. you can see a bar dividing the Sport and Snow. so that button is perhaps actually 2 buttons on the AT. the Sport button is for the AT shift mapping, and the Snow button is for both the AT and MT.
last but not least is the VSC OFF and VSC Sport buttons. some cars have it such that if you press the VSC OFF button, you simply turn off the TC or engine cut portion of the VSC. then if you hold the button down for 3+ sec you turn the VSC completely off. we know from the magazines that VSC can be completely turned off. so the question is what is VSC Sport? is it simply the same thing as TC off? or is it yet another mode somewhere in between?
