This.
A couple MPGs here and there really don't matter in the grand scheme of your life.
My philosophy is to enjoy the hell out your car on a daily basis, especially if it's a lease. Personally unless I'm highway cruising or in heavy traffic, I always drive in sport mode. I want the car to feel alive.
