I finally hit my break in miles and am just now starting to drive around in sport mode. When in sport mode at a stop, I fully and rapidly depress the gas pedal, and it seems I can count a full second before the car goes. It's like it wants a second to rev the engine before kicking it in gear to give a more exciting launch.
My Infiniti G37 did this, on purpose according to the manufacturer. But the amount of time it took to decide to go was random to the point that my one and only accident in 30+ years of driving was because I floored it to go on a left turn and the car hesitated so long that a car that was speeding clipped my corner. I found out after this you could code out that feature.
Instead, I got rid of the car after that and swore I'd never buy another auto.
But here I am with an automatic again and it feels like it does the same thing.
Is that normal? Or when you punch it from a dead stop does your car just go?
