Please don't take this the wrong way.
I don't mean it as an insult nor am I insinuating anything. This actually made me laugh so much because the statement sounded precisely like it was coming from a bitter female who couldn't purchase an S2K because it was manual only. 
At the rate it's going it might be the first CTR delivered!
No nooo, she will be on the ship headed over here by April!
I didn't know what you were saying cause that's Acrua not Honda, if you wanna catch up on that.. http://acurazine.com/forums/acura-ilx-discussion-382/
I just signed up to LOL!
Most certainly did, all the way back in 92. One team which dominated that season and they were subsequently banned.
That is just not so. They have 7 speed constant mesh transaxles. There has never been a CVT made yet that could handle the HP made by an F1 engine.
That was 24 years ago. And since it never raced, you cannot know its reliability issues. Sure, they try lots of things, but CVT's were just one of many ideas that never made the cut. And yes, that is the distinction I am making. I have been following F1 since the days of Lauda and Hunt. No CVT's... thank gawd....
If it weren't banned it would have gone into that race season. So they had a cvt 24 years ago that could handle the power of an F1 car, which was exactly the opposite of your point. Keep stroking your ego though, there's no way you could be wrong.
True that CVT technology has advanced. However, not all of us are arguing or trashing the CVT for the inferiority of it. We all know that CVT and DCT can be faster than manuals, but that is not what we are focusing on as enthusiasts. Cars are different. Some are for fastest times. Some are for handling. With certain level of handling performance in a car, we LIKE having the control and skills that come with driving one.
