Coming from a guy who was inches away from picking up a Jetstream Blue A6 last year and will likely get one upon moving to Cali.

just a toy, it will see some 1/4 mile time

as far as all the auto haters maybe you should tell Lamborghini and Bugatti and all the other world class performance auto makers that automatics suck…

I’ve been driving a bunch of C6 Vettes for my work and can honestly say I’ll have one eventually. Ride, power, comfort, it’s all there.  
A lot of them have tap shift automatics. But the stick cars are a lot of fun.

Nice pick up

it is the best car bone stock you can pick up for under 50k IMHO, mine has the tap shift and with few exceptions functions like a standard without a clutch…

does it rev match downshifts?

I hope the next gen vette offers a twin-clutch auto as an option, that would be badass.

Looks sharp! But I’m with everyone else on the M6. If I buy I sports car, I want to be the one in control.

Yup, it does. My dad has a car very similar to this and I really was impressed with the auto trans.

x2 yeah it does rev to match the downshift

anyone who knocks has never driven a modern automatic transmission, they are awesome stock and tuning can make them amazing
