Maybe there are cars out there that have even sweeter clutch take-up and rifle-bolt precise gearbox action with little effort, though good feel. Just haven't driven any yet.
Er, while I love the car overall, I think the CSVT's gearbox is clunky as hell. Ever driven a manual BMW, or even a Honda? Best of all is MTX Hondas and Bimmers have gearboxes whose covers sit depressed enough that you can keep toll change in 'em.
