Same with mitsu and their mivan or whatever, toyota and their vvt, etc. etc. It's not really a major power thing like the almighty v-tak...just keeps the mileage a lil better while your gunning it.

The gen sedan, no. The coupe gets the option of a 6 speed ZF manual tranny or 5 or 6 speed automatic, depending on engine choice.

They do look a lot better in person, but the coupe is ganna be the star for a long while to come.
Oh, and for anyone curious, here's the coupes engine choices:
* 3.8 V6
o 310 hp (Premium Fuel)
o 263 lb. ft. @ 4,700 rpm (regular and premium fuel)
o 0-60 mph in less than 6 seconds
o Top speed of 149 mph (240 km/h)
* 2.0T
o 223 hp (Premium Fuel)
o 217 lb. ft. @ 2,500 rpm (regular and premium fuel)
o 0-60 mph in mid 7 seconds
o Top speed of 137 mph (220 km/h)
EDIT: Oh yea, and you get the choice of a sport package. Full Brembo brakes, and Torsen-type LSD.
Couple all that with the 10 year/100k mile warrenty? **** yea!
