Corvette never had any problem with speed but it always has been the finer things that irritate you. I haven't driven the car so I don't know mechanically how it will feel but visually, a couple things I am not sure I can live with.
The side air intake still looks really odd. When you open the door, that thing just sticks out from the door that is just weird. Also the rear end looks sort of flabby and too wide visually and the surface design looks a bit bland. Also because they have to add the trunk in the back, the length might be a few inches too long.
The positives are it seems like they finally got rid of the leaf springs. Will see how the Tremec DCT perform.
As for the manual, since the transmission is now located way at the rear, I think it would be a challenge to design a shift linkage from way up from the driver, past the engine, then to the gear box at the rear.
