Sport mode in the Badlands or First Edition models is pretty much for showing off.
The 2.0 engine runs damn good.
As mentioned, it's quick when you want it to be.

Is it weird mine doesn't make the sport mode sounds? Probably more annoying/stupid than anything else, but now kinda sad I don't get to join in on the complaining (and listening to those sweet fake v8 noises :sunglasses::crackup:)

BMW got caught pumping fake engine noise through a dedicated speaker strategically positioned up in the dash when an owner decided to do his own dash repairs and this happened I think back in 2014. The Mustang joined the deception back in 2017 I think it was.
this ain’t nothing new boyz.

The 2011+ Mustangs had a sound tube from the intake into the interior, wasn't really fake noise, just amplified. I took mine out and just put on a louder exhaust.

MIne doesn't either. Another feature apparently eliminated from the '22s.
