4AT - 4 speed automatic transmission
IMO - In My Opinion.
It's not a question on using a manual or an automatic tranny. It's more of more effort being done when using a manual tranny. I actually ordered a Ford TDCI for myself. Footpedals are a bit sensitive, but I like the feeling of using a manual again (though I wish they had a sportronic transmission version available). Since it is torquier, good control on releasing the pedal will be helpful.

Thanks for the info. But is there a 2.3 model on our shores? I think not, unless you wanna buy one from the gray market. Also, FYI, the JDM FD Civic is a rebadge Acura in the states, I think it's called the CSX, please correct me if i'm wrong. A suitable on shore comparison would be more adequate IMO.

Based on some reviews here, There was a report that some of those who did a test drive had their engines cut off (namatayan) due to improper blending of the clutch and gas pedals. This may be a good indication that the engine even at low rpms is responsive (please correct me if i'm wrong again), very impressive indeed.

oo nga un nga rin balita ko, hiniritan ko nga yung sales exec ng ford eh ganyan di sinabi ko... napa ngiti lang sya
But i think kahit na namatayan ng makina yung mga nag test drive positive feedbacks parin nakukuha ng TDCi tinanong ko kung bakit walang A/T na diesel na Ford car, sabi nung sales exec, di raw kc kasya yung makina nun sa built ng focus

I guess if i will purchase TDCi, i should start practicing yung mga hanging... Opps, wait napaisip ako, lagi nga palang traffic sa makati tpos madalas pa dun sa mga areas na may hanging sakit sa ulo mag M/T (well, cguro dahil d pko gaanong expert sa M/T)

Practice makes perfect. Even I had some time adjusting to the view of the FD without you seeing its hood in front. Now, I can even do bumper to bumper traffic and do high speed maneuvering inches from the next car without hitting the other and all the more that you need that TDCi engine for that fuel savings indeed.
If I had the luxury like you have now, I'd get the TDCi or the 2.0S m/t of the FD civic. The TDCi offers Excellent handling plus excellent engine that can catapult the focus into blistering speeds. Great car!
As for me, I still love sedan styling so I choose the FD plus the great support from the tuning scene.
