If you're not planning to keep the car long term, CVTs are fine. Have you driven 1? A bit different, & expect the CVT noise. They're ticking time bombs & rebuilds will be draining.
In my hunt, I've looked at every option out there, landed the 1.5 Sky Hatch & got absolutely ZERO regrets.
If you're bent on the MZR Maxx, skip the wheel upgrade for now. You can choose better ones or go bigger outside the dealership.
Just my 2cents, though. I can't say others won't be good choices....just that I've been extremely happy w/ mine.
Even Toyota has seen the Sky light...
