OMFG Fail just fail get your one speed bitchbox outta here. You know why there is no performance aftermarket for the new maxima? Cuz it's a cvt and it can hardly hold the stock power and there is no way to beef it up. CVT's all need to die in a fire they are even worse than a regular automatic and are only good for point a to point b boredom. If they ever make a car that drives itself it will have a cvt.

Edit: unless sarcasm in which case consider the above an elaboration.
