I thought I was crazy wanting to buy a 6 speed corvette but after buying this thing I really enjoy it. Even with the stop and go sometimes traffic. Nuffin beats rowing thru the gears with the LT4 pushing it. :smash: :cheers:

Well, almost nothing. :D

I miss my 92 auto sometimes, the "just mash and go" effect was nice.

The 6-speed is a lot of fun.
