My c5 was an auto with 3.73 gears an a 3200 stall converter it was pretty quick. But because I was getting older it was time to slow down so my c6 had to be a manual so I bought one of those slow azzed z06's. Guess what, even tho its a slow manual car I still have fun and it hasn't really slowed me down much at all

What I leaned is you can enjoy either an auto or manual just the same

This is a simple one. Different strokes for different folks. I not on an ego trip ripping through gears. But, the big one is this......my wife drives mine from time to time and doesn't have a clue about gears. Looking from the outside you still see the most beautiful sports car in America.
