Ask And Ye Shall Receive: Manual Civic Turbo Is In The Cards

One seemingly glaring omission on the 2016 Honda Civic turbo's spec sheet is a manual transmission.

2016 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid: Second Take Success3.5/5

As good as the previous-generation gas-only Hyundai Sonata was, the Hybrid model simply couldn't match it.
