so is this sequential shifting going to be like what I tried out in a Camry a few months back? accelerate, shift, pause..., accelerate. regardless, the known weakness of a CVT tranny is its inability to handle high power loads. but if your goal is low weight then it wouldnt matter.

personally, the civic is small enough imo, anything smaller becomes impractical and..embarrasing. thats just opinion, so its not worth much.

The New BMW M5 has a sequential shift 7speed tranny mated to a 500hp v10, now thats something to get excited about.

the looks..well the coupe version looks like a chevy aveo if that says anything. the HB resembles a tiny little Matrix.

all that aside, a 1.5ltr engine powering a tiny car. scion(toyota)?????
