Haven't decided yet. I usually have it in either Eco to see how far I can stretch my mileage, in Tour when listening to the radio, and Sport for fun driving. It's been cold and wet here in the Western Washington area recently and I have been using the Weather mode more frequently too.
If my car was to get stuck in one mode, I'd pick "Sport".

Mine will be driving after it arrives from BG on the Polar Express.
I'm starting to rethink about wright a check for a car unseen and that is sitting on train.

I like Touring and Sports mode both equally, but I love the appearance of the Touring more. I use the track mode when I want to have little fun with the car

Sport 80% of the time. Tour 20% when I get on one the crappy roads around here.
I used ECO once, but will probably use it more on my road trip around Christmas. I used weather once after it went a bit sideways in the rain when I took my mom out for a little spin -- will probably use this more once snow starts sticking. I don't notice a big difference between sport and track, other than the harsher ride, so I don't use it often.

All track, all the time (steering and exhaust). Instrument panel showing sport visuals. I don't have MRC suspension option though so I'm not sure how my Z51 shocks feel in comparison to MRC track setup.

Is it possible to custom make your own mode as well? For instance, is it possible to have the exhaust set to the sport setting, the throttle set to the sport setting, but to also have the suspension set to touring and the active fuel management on as well?

No. Eco mode is the only mode you have for AFM. Exhaust has on/off or mode adaptive. I don't have MRC on my Z51 so I can't answer the suspension question.

From what I understand, you can set both the exhaust and steering independently of the driving mode. The suspension and AFM, however, are tied directly to the driving mode selected.

Is there any difference in exhaust sound between sport and track? Which one is louder?
