It's like Fiat putting their version of the PDK it in their 4 door fiat 500. That car is for commuter traffic and you're putting a jerky dual clutch not designed for the total lack of cooling at constantly being shifted at 20kph rush hour into a cheap disposable car? Tons of transmission problems with those things made them basically worthless even when only a couple years old. We looked at a 2 year old one for 9g that was around 30g new, and we passed.

This made me chuckle pretty hard because I'm envisioning it as being barely or not an exaggeration at all lol. CVT is fine in a prius but what was nissan thinking putting it in everything?
