Automatic Corvettes probably outsell manual models by 2 or 3 to 1 if the resale market is any guide. And plenty of people have been buying Tiptronic Porsches even though there’s generally a manual option as well.
There are no manual C8 Corvettes. Be interesting to see the pricing on the last of the C7 MT's vs first year C8 DCT's. GM made a big run of MT's as they closed out the C7 generation.

Was one of the cars I was following. What I was looking for a DOHC/DCT package did not show up when I was in the market. That left the Z4 & M4.

At the time only pictures were available of the M4 & the grill stopped me. Bought the Z4 on lease to see how it would play out. As it happened to my eye in real life & a dark color I think its very aggressive.



Went from Little Piggy to a killer pig known as the "Hell Pig". That said liked the Z4M40 so much it went from my lease & sell group to the long term keepers.
