Hey VRX_08, Thanks.
It sure is, this is my second one, I has an ES CVT but not long bought the VRX in a Manual and what a massive difference. if it wasn't my daily I would have bought an EVO X.

I have an X as my daily at the moment (soon to be replaced by my VII) and I love it :)

Have driven both in the VRX (CVT and manual) and prefer the manual by far, although the paddle shifters in the VRX CVT aren't bad though! :)

Hey D, Yeah in Wollongong it wouldn't be so bad but in Sydney peak traffic the fuel bill would send me broke.

VRX_08 I haven't had the pleasure of driving a CVT with paddle shifts, might need to take on for a test run.

Still prefer the manual though, more fun and a little extra guts! :P

I have only driven the CVT in the VRX as my girlfriend owns one whilst I own a manual VRX (same year and colour too)! :P
