The Honda IMA is what it is...a start

I remember when the first sequential gear boxes arrived in non F1 cars, a gimmick to start...and not a very good one at that.

The VW DSG transmission is now nearly the first option for most buyers of high end VW's, from gimmick to almost essential in a few years.

Again I know the IMA is not perfect but it does try to answer a few questions, not all of them but it is a "work in progress" concept, if you don't like the concept no one is forcing you to buy one...so just move on a buy something you do like.

I'm not a fan of new shape TypeR, I liked the old one but given that this forum is full new happy owners of the new model my opinion is just a personnel one and why should I stick the boot in on the owners of the new shape Civic, no need to IMHO.
