I had two 06 Si's and really enjoyed the 6 spd tranny. This was as close as I got to owning a "sporty car". After a year of both Si's, I got over the exciting experience of the 6 spd and became weary of constantly shifting gears. I traded up to an 08 V6 Accord Cpe. The V6 Accord turned out to be not so good on gas. The car was very noisy on the hwy. I now drive a 09 Civic EX-L Cpe and very satisfied with the perfect balance of everything about the car; from quality, mpg to power of the 1.8. This will be a keeper for awhile. Speculating on the CRZ CVT for its newness, technology and mpg. I have to wait and test drive one, and maybe wait a year for the 2012 or 2013 models. Hoping for a larger engine (1.8 or 2.0). The CRZ is slightly lighter than my Civic, so the slightly larger engine will really compliment the sportiness even at a small sacrifice of mpg. I like the Navi and rear camera. Hoping for leather seats, heated seats and heated outside mirror.
