Is there a way to program the car so that keyfob 1 automatically sets the car to sport plus/sport/sport mode and key fob 2 sets it to sport/comfort/comfort ?

no. default is always the default. it will always set to efficient/comfort/comfort.

You can change these default startup settings with Bimmercode, but I'm not sure if you can then also tie that to different keys/users.

Yes, you can easily set the default startup mode for the vehicle with bimmercode/protool/esys, but as far as i know it would not be key-specific.

Everything I've read says the changes that you can set in Bimmercode don't effect the startup modes for the F97/98 cars. Like Danniexi mentioned, it will always default back to comfort. I tried to change mine and also noted it didn't work.
