Which drive mode do you use mainly?

N Custom 98% of the time (even in heavy traffic).
I use Normal only for warm-up and cooldown when stopped.

Custom:
Everything in Sport+
Suspension in Normal

The few occasions I find myself on perfect tarmac, I switch to N Mode.
Only times I've ever been in Sport or Eco is when I forget I'm already in Normal and press the button, so I have to go though them to go back to Normal šŸ˜†

Normal most of the time and occasionally N custom when I've got a fast twistie to myself or a like minded driver in a similar car.
 
Being serious for a moment, Sport for now, occasionally hitting 3000-4000rpm in the lower gears. Once I've run the car up to the 1000kms break in period (currently on 820kms) then I'll play around with N Custom. Being DCT I like the way Sport mode keeps the revs up a little, particularly whilst down changing around town at slower speeds. It keeps it in the 2000-3000rpm range which I think is a nice level of load on the engine whilst running it in.

Sport most of the time for me.
For spirited driving, N-custom which is a clone of N mode but with the suspension set to the same as Sport.
Normal when I am in my own street to keep the neighbours on good terms.

Usually custom (everything at top apart from suspension)

I switch it out to normal near home because with the DCT at max it will sit in second gear at 30mph and it gets a bit tiresome!
 
Normal when I drive the kids around.
Sport for the rest. I like the firmer suspension, the steering in sport feels right to me.
Custom (all N settings but suspension and steering set to sport) for overtaking or spirited driving.
I revised my opinion about esc sport, go for it!

Steering in Sport feels right to me too, especially for the driving conditions in my town (short drives, a few lane changes and traffic here is slowwwwwww). Makes the commute a lot more enjoyable.
 
Normal, then N custom when warmed up. Eco if I'm doing long motorway miles or driving down to my parents as it's a 3 hour drive.
Will always switch it out of N custom when approaching my street. N custom for me is everything sport or sport plus and suspension on softest setting. I think steering weight is also midway.
 
When it's cold, just Normal because car is jerky if engine is in sport+, until the car warms up a little
Otherwise, N Custom - I like the sound even if I'm crawling through the city
- steering: sport
- suspension: sport
- engine: sport+
- exhaust: sport+
- rev match: normal
- DSC - sport

Never blasting in full N mode, the suspension is too stiff.

On motorway and when I have passengers, sport mode mostly
