Sports package
hey guys .. i noticed something .. on a 4.8 without sports package , you get a button that says "sport" next to the gear HOWEVER if u get a 4.8 WITH sports package , that button is no where to be found !! does that mean that a 4.8 sports package is always on SPORTS mode ???

The sports button next to gear lever is for the Adaptive Drive. Whether or not this is included in the sports package is dependent on which country you are in. It is standard in the US sports package, but optional in Europe, and down under (I believe). Don't know if it is std in Middle East though.

The adaptive Drive is not a stander option even if you have the sport PKG.
The Cost of the option around 15,000 SAR. = $4,000
In my opinion this option worth the money..

You have to order the "Adaptive Drive" to get the sport button.

btw- this is the single best option on the E70, shouldnt order one w/o this option imo.

What is adaptive drive? And is it incorporated into a package or is it a stand-alone option?
