i do agree with you on this but however we need to consider also car's CC, gear ratio and type of gear... to me 6 speeds works best for cars 2.0L and above....sometimes it is annoying when your car hunting for gear 5 & 6 when you are cruising leisurely...

Though that may be true, having 4 underdrive ratios at your disposal for normal driving is infinitely better than 3. On my just sold Civic 1.8, 2nd gear was still too tall even with 5 forward ratios, that oftentimes I find myself stuck in 2nd and having to wait for the engine speed to slowly climb. I sh1t you not, on a car with 5 gears, Honda ratioed the 2nd gear to be able to hit 105km/h! That's a bit dumb IMO.

I have got to get use to the relatively light steering. The six speed auto box is smooth due to the closer ratios.
The car has a spirited drive. Only about 250 Km on the odometer. Did pushed it to about 140 on the highway before easing off due to a tight engine and a possible speeding ticket. And also due to the Silverstone tyres. I was on Continentals and Yokohamas before.
The air-conditioner is lovely. There is something about these Asian cars. The air-conditioner cools very fast.
The sound quality of the radio is pretty cacat by comparison. For the price I paid I can forgive many things, radio included.
Out of habit, I keep reaching for the non-existent ignition key on the steering column. Real funny.
This car needs nothing, except maybe a set of better tyres.
Cheers :-)
