2006 Chevy Corvette

You can see we've elected to shift our own tranny by choosing the world-class six-speed manual. (The new-for-2006 six-speed paddle shift was a temptation, but it's still basically an automatic, and we were worried any first-year teething problems might rear their ugly heads during the extreme testing we'll be doing with this car.) Had we waited for the 2007 model, we would have been able to enjoy a larger glove box, available two-tone seats, and an improved key fob. No big loss in our minds.
