...an excerpt from the article says:
Keep in mind, however, that the Z28 will be almost 300 pounds lighter than the CTS-V, so expect 0 to 60 times under four seconds and a top speed of 193 mph (with the manual transmission). Speaking of gearboxes, the Z28 will most likely be offered only in a full-manual six-speed option (due to the higher cost of the automatic).

There would be no point in that auto test mule that GM has if they didn't plan an auto option.
Personally I would never buy a manual trans car (main reason I don't have an '03-'04 Cobra) - they are just not welcome in my garage. So I'll be very happy to see an auto option, and this car *might* sway me away from an LS3/A6 C6.
