Interesting about the rumors the C7 Z will have a special transmission - I can say the one gripe I have about my C6 Carbon Edition, and sadly it is a big one, is that the Tremec trans that is in it is the worst POS I have ever dealt with and I have driven a gamut of vehicles. Total POS on the track unless you shift it like a pansy. And if it is even remotely cold out, good luck getting 2nd gear. Love the late model Vettes and they are really stable and handle pretty amazingly, but the trans that is in them and the TO bearing fluid issues they have suuuuuuuucccccccckkkkkksssssss. Maybe the C7 can get that figured out. I would definitely consider a DCT if it is a true automated manual with millisecond shifting and not some automatic with buttons or paddles to select gears.

Tim,
The C6 Z06 transmission doesn't give any trouble if you leave the car on blocks with plumb lines hanging everywhere off the bottom. LOL Agree with your thoughts on the C7.
Merry Christmas
