We keep ours in 'sport'. It doesn't affect speed much (that is solved by APR) but the less delayed response allows better shift quality.
The thing to appreciate in that car is to give it moderate throttle in turns and feel it do something almost no other front-driver does: get sucked into the apex and hold the line. Also - for my personal taste - I highly recommend the APR low output program (295hp) though I can see that doesn't work in your use case.
She's a good driver, right? Even stock it is a good bit of speed for a teenager.
If you continue to drive the e39, you will be jealous. Very.
It's a high quality car in my view and hard to beat for the money. Cara wanted plaid though we ended up with leather/SE. Coming up to 8k now.
