For the record, there are multiple reports of the OEM CSC failing on brand new cars as they are driven off the lot by their new owner. Seems like a pretty risky move if you are already struggling to afford repair costs; what happens if it fails in a few thousand miles and you have to pay labor to drop the transmission again? You can get the ZSpeed internal HDCSC for $325 (external CMAK is $495). That's only a $200 price difference plus a lifetime of peace of mind compared to the OEM CSC; if that is really make or break for you then maybe you can't afford the car.
