Obviously, I'd prefer someone who was pro-AWD and pro-DCT to be the one asking and probing for details in order to get the real info.

And PLEASE, push for a the REAL answers with details. Even if it's "off the record".
I say this because I have asked Corvette engineers questions before and history has proven that they lied straight to my face. And, they continued the charade even after I POLITELY told them I found what they were telling me was hard to believe.

I'm not trying to start a war in this thread.
If I had a straight answers from GM, it would be a lot easier for me to accept the current lack of both options, and I assume for some others as well.
This subject has been covered so many times already in this forum. And, we have heard it directly from Tadge J. that there will not be DCT and/or AWD in the C7. You need to accept and get over it. Btw, IBTL
