Yup, developed by Fiat and its apparently pretty good! Haven't gotten able to test the DCT on the Dart (we only get the SXT Rallye model with the 2.0 + 6 speed auto), but its the same of the Alfa Giulietta and that one felt pretty good.

Ask and ye shall receive

I'd usually agree, but if this TorqueFlite is anything like the magical ZF 8 speed, then its going to be good enough (this is coming from someone who vowed never to buy a car with less than three pedals)

I was actually about to ask the same thing. I thought it was just modulate clutch on start and then mash pedal while shifting. Apparently not so.

If you're wondering what comes out on top in this showdown between a Focus and a bike, it's gonna be the Focus..

And now, I desperately need to find this version of Can't Touch This :D

Its weird, the 1.4 Turbo Dodge Dart has the same engine and has an optional DCT, which I've heard is pretty good. I wonder why they didn't use that one on the Abarth? If this automatic is anything like the 2.0 Dart's automatic, then its bad news. I can't stand driving my mom's automatic Dart. Fun car, good sound,…

New Dodge Dart also has proper shift lever directions

I'd nominate any of the Brazilian assembly lines. We owned a Brazilian made 9th gen Honda Civic for a couple of years and it had panel gaps I could fit my thumb through, the steering vibrated at any speed over 110kph, head unit overheated, everything inside vibrated and the hitting the ceiling from inside felt like…

I tried to learn on my step-brother's 1.4 Grande Punto, but he didn't like me doing that, so my dad offered the only other car with a stick in the house: his 997.1 Carrera 4S. It wasn't easy to learn with that extremely heavy clutch, but it definitely helped me to be good at clutching with any other car! I've always…

Also a very nice touch are the rear tail lights' shape, being the legendary Skyline one.

Did you.... Did you just compliment the Juke? Holy crap, someone who thinks my car is good! I hate that its so overlooked, especially in NISMO trim (mine is non-NISMO, can't get them here). The little turbo engine is so much fun and easy to get more power from simple bolt on mods, and its also underrated, with most…

Thats actually an awesome offer, so yes! :D

Great, thanks for the heads up! Since I like cars, die cast models and photography, I see that if it happens I'll be having a great time :D

Or probably just the Andes if I can't make it to the Dakar blowing my money on car parts ^^

If it ends up here in Chile I can make it go to the Dakar! :D

Funny enough, "pinto" is an euphemism for "penis" in portuguese.

I think the most recent Toyota I've liked (excluding the Twins) is the FJ Cruiser but thats it, but its true, Toyota has done nothing exciting on their own in decades. They seem to have put their money in making fun cars for people with lots of money through Lexus, with the IS-F, LF-A and now RC-F.
