I would not get the A8, stay with M/T. The dealer acknowledged that it's a huge issue for GM and they are still getting a handle on it. I usually go manual transmission in my cars and I opted for automatic this time only due to that I liked the package this car came with and the A8 was rated for better fuel economy. I'll for sure stick with manual on anything I buy going forward after this on anything I buy.

If I were you I'd get the SS with M/T- has much more power than the V6, same if not better MPG and better resale value.
