CVT. You can see/hear me let off the accelerator when I hit 60 which is about 7sec from when the begins to roll. The YouTube clock(from ~0:21-0:28) indicates maybe 6.5-7sec. Nothing scientific, I was mostly trying to capture the OEM exhaust note for a before/after comparison with a possible aftermarket solution. The stock exhaust is pretty quiet, too quiet IMO...even with the "sport" exhaust. Maybe it will get a little louder after a couple thousand miles of breaking.CVT or 6speed? Time?
lol, nahhh.... I've had zero issues with any of my M cars. The current Civic replaces the SI not the current 2011 E90 M3. The video shows one of the first launch '08 M3's I had and sold when the LCI updates came out. Always been a fan of Honda, just got really into BMW for many years, but lately BMW has lost me with newer models. I'll stick to older BMW's, Honda and a few "bucket list" cars for the near future!I thought I was a little nuts going from my 335 to a civic... But you've had an e90 m3 and a 1m and now have a civic? Get sick of the maintenance costs? Lol
I've got an extensive list myself but probably 75% or more are Hondas. But all older b/d series. I'd say I've never owned a k although I have (k24 in accord and crv don't count to me). Only bimmer I've had was an almost fbo pre lci e90 335 (no FMIC but meth) and I loved it. Wanted an e46 m3 but they cost too much for me nowadays and I feel like the 6MT is never for sale. Buddy has an f80 m3, awesome car imo, now I gotta try and keep up in my little L15b instead of my n54 which might have been able to...lol, nahhh.... I've had zero issues with any of my M cars.

Yeah newer body, dct only (SST). They came out in '09 I believe. I thought I needed the AWD more than I did. The interior was really cheap, otherwise fun daily........Was the lancer ralliart already the newer style with the turbo/dct by '10? I was looking at those for a while.
How are you launching with the CVT? I've tried just slamming on the pedal but it bogs down. Lol.
