What exactly does the "S" button do?
#21
I'm glad to hear the explanations here, since this is all the manual says:
Sport Mode Switch selects either normal 'N' or sport 'S' mode. When sport mode is selected the gear shift points are extended to make full use of the engine's power reserves. To operate: Press the switch. The switch lights up to indicate that sport mode has been selected. Press the switch again to cancel sport mode.
I've been driving mine in Sport Mode for a couple days -- seems a bit peppier, but that could be my imagination!

It is not your imagination, another thing it does is disables the torque converter so you get direct from engine to diff response instead of the TC damping it down a bit. Normally the TC switches off around 50mph.
