Hello all,
I have got a new guy question for you. I have had my Buick Grandnational for many years, and love the car but I think it may be time to buy a C5. My question is around body style and transmission configurations. Did they make a C5 coupe (Z06 style, but not an actual Z06) in an automatic? I will be looking for an A4 car, and I like the body style with the trunk the best.

Thanks in advance.
The C5 coupe has the "hatchback" design only. You must be referring to the Fixed Roof Coupe that came out before the Z06 came out in '01. I think (not too sure) that those came with an A4. Not so the actual Z06.

The FRC (Fixed Roof coupe) came out in 1999 and carried through to 2000. In 2001 the Z06 was introduced utilizing the FRC bodystyle.
There has never been a factory A4 available with that bodystyle - either as the FRC or the Z06.
Here's a web page that will give you information on the various model years, the differences and the options available for each model year and body style.....

The hardtop Corvette (Z06 styling) only comes in a manual transmission. If you want an automatic, you have to go with either the coupe or the convertible.
