Saw this on craigslist, looks like it is in great condition. How do you like the transmission in it? Seems people have really mixed feelings on it. ---

I personally prefer the CVT trans to a regular slushbox. The design makes perfect sense to me. Seamless Infinite ratios with no jolts between shifts. The CVT makes the HX model more fuel efficient as well. ---

I beg to differ, this particular CVT is working great. I believe the cvts with trouble probably have not had the recommended oem fluid changed every 30k. Yeah, aftermarket pop-up, no leaks. ---

i was in no way implying your car had trans problems, sorry if you felt that way… It was a general statement, personally my fiance had a 96 with lower miles and trans slipping problems, which led me to find out that its a major issue… and not a cheap one to fix ---

So if your friend has an ebay account, he can bid, or have someone bid for him. He may get it cheaper than asking price. Thanks for the referral. ---

I’ll have to watch it. But I think by having no reserve and starting at a buck or whatever low amount you did will pay off. I think you’ll do well with the auction. 🙂 If the auction stays low enough I may look to buy it even though it’s auto. 😉 ---
