Go for Jazz! CVT is the best!You dont even feel that the car is shifting up gear.

hes laughing because he works at honda, and most of the jazzs which come through have CVT issues and need to get rebuilt etc etc.

i too lol'ed at your comment to be honest.

Best auto? i would stick to a euro. honda autos generally suck in comparison to german autos.

but get a tiptronic box. go the euro./

still dont understand then how my cvt hasnt had a single issue, and im not exactly a granny drivver?

and frankly a reply or hahaha etc is pathetic. i gave my sugestion, and iv driven or been a passanger in a fair wack of hondas and i still believe the cvt is the best gearbox for some1 who dosent want a fast car, but a smooth and effortless drive.

if u look at the history of CVTs, they havent faired well in comparison to a standard gear'd gearbox.

regardless of whatever car or make.

i would also avoid the auto prelude gearboxes up until 98 i think, when release two fixed the auto gbox issues.

go accord euro

no civic or jazz as they have little guts, unless it's manuals.

CU Accord Euro, it matches its gears with the engine better than the old one

FD1 Civic, the gearbox makes up for the fact that the engine is lacking a bit of torque down low

i'm laughing because you clearly have no idea what you are talking about with a statement like that.

sure they drive excellent WHEN THEY ARE WORKING.
they have had quite a few issues, so much so that honda has had to extend the warranty period for them (just like they did with the cvt in the hrv and eg civic vti with cvt)

i have driven two jazz today with start clutch shudder

other than the cvts steer clear from 98 v6 accords and v6 odysseys, you wont find many auto trans issues outside of those models (oh and the auto ludes and sireal said)

The majority of the jazz drivers i know have suffered from the shudder including my own. So I would never recommend Jazz as the best auto trans.

+1 for Euro
