I just drove a 2015 cvt, it was great except when pushed hard, I didn't want to do harm to it but 98% of my 10 mile test drive was excellent. I did not notice any change in vibration of course I don't notice much vibration in my 14 5mt. I enjoyed driving the cvt and I was impressed but I know I made the right choice for me with the 5mt because I get bored too easily and I must have that feeling of control over my car. I see now why car reviewers criticize the mirage so bad, if they want a driving experience than they need a 5mt! If you want a relaxed max mpg cruiser the cvt is a good choice. I think reviews would be different if these die hard car testers had the 5mt.
