[QUOTE="turbozig, post: 170828, member: 915"] My thought is that GM may hopefully decide to eventually release a manual version in the years to come. I can't imagine how much time, effort and money was invested to redesign and build a mid engine car, especially for the money this thing will cost. Overall they did a very decent job. I believe they simply did not have enough time to make this thing be perfect for everyone. Like many of the past Corvettes, there were so many styling and option changes throughout the generations, just look at how many changes were made to the C3 throughout it's time from 68-82. We all know over time the ZO6 and ZR1 or Zora versions will be built. My hopes are that the manual transmission will eventually be brought back as a special order, and that the rear end becomes a little more cutting edge and exciting in design. I can already imagine a hybrid gas/electric version also with this platform. Overall, cudos to Corvette for stepping out of the box and building a car that will be exciting to drive. Looking forward to what the future brings. Until then lets drive the hell out of our front engine beasts! [/QUOTE]
