New Ride

So my 8 will always be my baby. I have a 325 daily.
Super torn between what my next ride should be. My choices so far are the new Z06, CTS-V, and the GTR. Only thing turning me off about the GTR is no manual WTH.

GTR with out a doubt, forget about that manual the GTR shift's so fast you won't want manual anymore ,I use to be a die hard stick man after the GTR ,I don't want to see a clutch again in my life!

I agree - big turn off with auto only. The GTR is an all around track/drag car though. If I was choosing between the three - it would definitely be the GTR.

GTR. I know the lack of manual gearbox seems like a turnoff but in a car like that you will soon realize that the dual clutch is a blessing. Shift times are super fast. The car is an engineering marvel all around. And it has better build quality than the Z06 in my opinion.

amazing how many favor the gtr. awd makes it fundamentally a different beast than the other two. for messing around on the street, i'd favor the gtr. cts-v would be my pick for an all around family car. wish they could figure out an awd driveline for a front engine big block v8. would be killer to have an awd cts-v.
