Vert A6 Sport Mode Experiances
I just discovered you can drive in "M" mode without using Tapshift. Does the transmission seem to hold gears longer or is it my imagination? What are your impressions of this, since convertible owners were "robbed" of the standard performance traction modes that others get.

if you drive it aggressively, it will hold gears longer. Also, it will start in 1st gear in "M" instead of 2nd in "D". So, you aren't imagining it.

Yes it does hold the gear longer & shifts abit in a higher rpm than the D "mode".
