I have a slightly more nuanced view of CVTs. I have no problem with a CVT on an econobox. Put it on a Nissan versa, a Toyota Corolla, a Sentra, etc. So I have no problem with it being on an Impreza, for example. But it should not be on a BRZ or an STI.

Same thing with Nissan. As noted above, go ahead and put it on the Versa or the Sentra. But don't advertise the Maxima as a four door sports car and then put a CVT on it! Give me a break.
