I don't know why these buttons are not persistent. Especially on the e39 M5 as Sport also gives a much better steering feel. I could never understand buying an M5 for non-sport driving. However, my dog would get sick if I drove in Sport - the car reacted too fast for him. He seems perfectly fine with Sport in the 911.

I had a '99 540 Sport which I loved. Loved o much in fact I sold it to by my M5. For those not familiar, the 540 sport is actually significantly different from the regular 540. It is a lower and stiffer suspension as well as a 3.15:1 final drive ratio instead of the normal 2.85:1 thus putting down more torque to the rear wheels. It's a great car!
