Well, continuously variable does tell you right off the bat that it isn't going to find one ratio and stick with it... But a friend of mine with a Subaru CVT loves it with its sport mode and paddle shifters. I just bite my tongue.
What's important is that a CVT is a different kind of animal than regular transmissions- BSFC is more important than ever because you can hit your RPM and let the transmission move the car.
