I like my pretend shifting. But yeah, I agree. I still don't understand the appeal of the CVT, I get the whole holding it in the sweet spot thing but it doesn't seem like it would be nearly as satisfying, I also don't like the lack of subaru warble. It does seem like a really nice car to drive and a big performance improvement on the last generation. I don't want one, but it seems nice.
