I think tsturbo's point is that the salesman in the video doesn't know his product very well if he is saying there is a 9 speed in the car that he is doing a demo on where in fact it is a DCT?

Right. And he looks right at the gear shifter, touches it, pauses to think about whats he is about to say, and still says the wrong thing. He also says it uses 3 drive modes when it obviously uses 4. And lets not mention the Nappa leather remark.

Pretty unfortunate, hopefully they have since edited. The whole point of creating some excitement is that you can get the 4 cylinder with the excellent DCT in an ASPEC (Elite or Tech)! We Canadians like our 4 cylinders. For example, to date, the new Honda Accord has sold 5% manuals, 13% 2.0 Turbos and the rest 1.5 Turbos with CVTs. We are so darn environmentally and pocketbook conscious. Of course, that may also have something to do with availability.
