We've been telling you this for like,five years now. No one ever called it the most matainence free vehicle in the world...it's no Civic...and I'm glad for it. The tranny is not the only "weak" link in this formula. Keep on top of things,and you'll have a much better experience. It's not quite a Lotus, but there is still a pretty high tinkering factor involved in long term ownership...or you could just buy a Civic.Originally Posted by HOT_WASABI_JUNKIE
