sadly she is an auto...grr my buds vert right next to me is a m6 he got so lucky, when I went shopping I looked for so many, only m6 i found was on a 2007 z06 and that was a little too deep for my pockets, hehe. she's got some pretty tall gears though but Im not exactly sure I believe they said 3.73 but they could be wrong. Im going to a shop tues and havem tell me all her dirty secrets. She is a blast to drive and the corsa sound nothing can compare, wish I could get a sound clip-

Congrats bro, she's beautiful! Does she have a name? BTW, when you get the secrets out of her, post'em up; love to hear what she's got.


Oh, I hear ya on having to have deep pockets for the Z! It's worth it, but I don't know of many people who're wanting to part with that much $$$.

Now what's wrong with an automatic? If you plan on drag racing then the auto is the only way to go. Put a properly sized converter in and no manual will stay with you.

And congratulations on the new vette! It's a beauty!
