The upcoming Admiral Blue color to be used on the '17 Grand Sport was introduced as a VERY late color option for the '16 model and a few hundred '16 model Stingrays were equipped with the color - 221 Stingrays and 115 Z06s. I wonder what is the auto / manual differentiation there? If it assumes that same rather rough 23%~ish ratio, then roughly 50 Admiral Blue '16 Stingrays got a manual and just over 25 Admiral Blue '16 Z06s got a manual.

There's got to be a rather unique Corvette build there, like maybe a '16 Admiral Blue Z06 w/ the Z07 package in manual with some specific overrides.

Have a feeling the title of this thread should be A8 vs M7 since the article talk about the 2016 Corvette.
