The CVT transmission still sucks to me no matter what's coming in the near future. If I could turn back time I would have got a 6 speed, but since I had a stick shift car at the time I didn't want 2 of them . Good find though dude.

thanks bro, and i agree, i would take synchro rev match too, but they need to fix the 6th gear problem (or is it the 5th gear problem...?) but yeah it's a pretty cool article, i def regret the CVT, but hey it happens and i don't mind it. all i know is, my next car is going to be a weekend, 6 speed car that will be a track monster!! Oooooh if i can only win lotto lol

I won the lotto two days ago $10 off a scratcher

I definitely wish I had the 6 speed but I still love my car to death
