What I noticed coming out from an automatic A6 transmission Stingray Z51 to my 6 spd manual transmission Camaro SS, that the Corvette felt more agile/nimbler on the road while changing lanes at speed or taking a curve, probably because its lower to the ground and lighter weight, the Camaro felt heavier on the rear while doing the same maneuvers. But I really love my 6 speed manual transmission of my Camaro, the exhaust sounds louder and my wife prefers the seating position of the Camaro, the driving feeling feels faster on the manual transmission because you rpm it to your own (probably is not really faster, just the driving feeling).
