Needs CVT cause it's not meant for speed. Or noise.

I'm not against auto's, but I don't think I like CVT's...

Hey, the first time you drive a cvt, you either love it or hate it, and it wont grow on you like athlete's foot if you fall into the latter category.

I know I'm probably nitpicking here, but I just don't like the look of the car at this angle. That B pillar (if you could call it that), looks like it has been tacked on.
That is no accident it was designed to look exactly like that it's suppose to look just like that. Here's where they got their inspiration:

Do you like the design on those timeless Ferraris? In my opinion they made the design que even prettier.

Lol yup. Drive.com.au ..they are ok. The best Aussie Car channel is still CarAdvice. Tegan is a hottie in an unusual way.

That looks like the car was designed with those in mind, the RF makes it look like those things were just tacked on. I don't know how to explain it better.
Strange since it's curvier and follows the lines of the car more than the Ferraris. Because of that I'd almost say the Ferrari's looks more tacked on in comparison. But I suppose the Ferraris came first and it's hard to unsee something and for a new take on an old look to compete with nostalgia is always difficult so it's understandable.
