New model only available with CVT here. Want to find MT for better driving fun.

I guess I can only look at older Subarus then. Or the latest WRX STI.

Is too bad that the new FA20DIT WRX is only available in CVT here and Japan. Western countries have the choice of 6 speed manual which seems like a better deal than the fuel guzzling EJ257 WRX STI.

CVT can be fun too, floor the paddle and watch the speed climbs while RPM just hanging on high RPM all the time, go for century sprint.

If autocrossing this thing then you gotta use its "fake" manual shifting with paddle shifters

Pedal shift also RPM goes up only......lol

Pedal shift also RPM goes up only......lol

But it won't stay at high RPM all the time haha. Paddle shift will still simulate gear shifting lol

For CVT the RPM goes up first then only pick up speed.......lol

LOL the infamous rubber band effect ! Like slingshot, anyway days of manual fun but with today's traffic and drivers' quality, neh ... daily an automatic seems more sensible.

daily MT with stock clutch for me still ok lah.
I still agree automatic make sense but encourage looking at handphone while inching in traffic.
Irritates me when traffic move, they still looking at hp. Wish to install air-horn. kakaka

Turbo MT all stock, swap engine and that is it. Clutch normal Exedy also. Maintenance cheaper than NA MT, in fact using HDEO 7L engine oil even cheaper than NA MT oil 4L 20w50 add no smoke.......lol
