Ah yes, as I remember they made really good boat anchors!

Also, here's a post from MAVEN on the other site:
"There will be no PRNDSM, its either PRNDM or PRNDS depending on application, M is what we'll see in the C6. You are correct it will have Drive and Sport......Drive is the D and Sport is the algorithm enabled when the trans is in "D" and aggressive or sporty car manuevers/driver inputs are detected, just like in the C5/2005 C6
You cant "select" the sport mode the ECM/TCM engage it."
