it says they did use a MT, but for only 200 miles. The rest of the testing was on the cvt

I don't really like edmunds anyway...somehow they suck with a cvt and got a 0-60 in 6.4 seconds, and other mags got 5.8...

Yes, and it was good to read it again. As for telling me it was OLD I felt was childish on your part. Big deal it was old, big deal I did not do a "search"..if you don't care to give me some constructive criticism, then keep it to yourself.

Flame suit is on, so bring it....all constructive criticism accepted...

It was still a good read and from what Infantry 1327, posted he enjoyed it.

haha this guy must've had some incentive to call the car "gorgeous" or compare it to italian autos - i think it's a bit of an overstatement. Don't get me wrong - the coupe is a beautiful car, but it's far from perfect.

i guess the saying stays true in this case - "beauty is in the eye of the beholder."
