I kind of dig it, I feel like it’d make a good DD. No more manual, but the 8 speed dual clutch with the torque converter seems to be pretty good.

I’m very interested to know as well. Switching the engine over to the DI Earth dreams version was also a good move. I’m interested to see the performance numbers of anyone tests it.

Does this answer your question?

I think that it’s a fancy Honda Civic.

I’d rather have almost any $28k car over this. GTI, WRX, FoST, Si, Fusion, Regal etc... or just save a few more months and get a 228i.

Its cool but I think the Regal is a better go right now.

It's alright but it's only a fancy civic.

I really like these wheels.

I really like the styling, and it may be just a fancy Honda Civic but I’m cool with that. I wouldn’t get it as a performance car, but I would recommending to my parents and gladly drive it if they asked.

What is the point of having two clutches, AND a torque converter? (and that would seem to be inaccurate... but it is Honda... who knows.)

1. Acura still makes cars? I thought they went under/became irrelevant when they stopped the 04-07ish TL.

2. How does the torque converter work with the two clutches?

3. Could they have given it any more front overhang? Why not just put the front wheels behind the driver?
