The 2020 mid-engine Vette Stingray... what a gorgeous car at a bargain bin price (starting at under 60k). If it drives and sounds as well as everyone expects it will, I'll retain the G30 as the commuter and get me a manual Vette.
BMW and I are drifting apart, and I feel like the continued Lexusification effort is a bridge too far for me.

I guess no one has told you there will not likely be a manual Vette. NA V8? Yes. RWD? Yes. 0-60 in 2.8? Yes. Manual. No. Some say the chassis/frame design and oil sump (I believe) make it impossible in current form. Not sure this has been 100% confirmed/denied.
There is no such thing as a perfect car lol. |
The jury is still out on the MT C8, but I'm sure we'll get confirmation soon enough. |
Yeah I certainly don't know for sure but a few journalists commented on it "not looking possible" but they could always be wrong or maybe they'll do some design tweaks to make it happen
