It's heavier. That said, CVT also gets better AWD system. I really liked the HT CVT in Forester XT, two heads above regular CVTs in all other cars I've tried. Goes to peak power quickly, when floored. For anything other than track/autox, CVT WRX will be a better/quicker car.
If I was buying one, I'd take the CVT over a cable-actuated feel-less MT.
