@JonSpark: believe that's just a bit of tissue stuck to the bumper. missed that out when i was taking this picture, and didn't realize it myself until it was pointed out to me!

the CVT transmission is.. different. but i can live with that sort of different. i've driven the 2.0GT before and it is a relatively powerful car. handles relatively well, and between the 2.0 civic FD and the 2.0 lancer; i'd have quite a problem trying to choose. head... or heart.

anyway, i'm going to cut the chatter and post another random pic:
