thanks all, I am going to try to test drive that 6MT Integra this weekend.
complaining start... Only problem is that it doesn't seem much of an upgrade over my GTI and for more money. Actually a downgrade on the engine 1.5T vs 2.0T. Seems like tech(and reliability) is the only upgrade. |

Crosstreks are available with a stick, if you can find one. I think the newest models will be CVT only.
They are pretty low on power through, and the manual is not supposed to be so great… |

Not really clear that the 20hp justifies the price premium over the 180hp 6MT Civic. I assume that the CTR is impossible to get. Too bad there.

Sometimes things just suck, in a perfect world the gti is the answer for you but in real life you did it and done that and unfortunately the gti is out of the question. Forgot everything else and try out the new Nissan Z …. Now that looks like fun  Last edited by Alan; 03-04-2023 at 06:37 AM. |
