I've had five Camaros. 4 stick and 1 auto. Currently driving a manual. My 2010 SS has 70k on it. Out of the wrapper it got an intake, exhaust, tune and tires. I've made dozens of passes on a strip (and hundreds of runs elsewhere sshhhsshh)

First, kudos to GM cause I've beaten my car like a red headed step child and nothing has ever gone wrong or broke.

Second, I'm fairly consistent with the manual. A lot of my auto friends actually have commented how consistant my runs are. With that said....

I'm getting an auto!!!! Lol.

I truly believe that the new Camaro A8 will smoke a manual. The current A6 with 26 less hp and 10 less tq runs basically the same times. Add a tune to the A6 and the M6 and the A6 is quicker.

Now level the field and give both the same power and the A6 is that much faster.

Now add two more gears and make it an A8. C'mon man. The auto is gonna be a lot quicker. Look at the vettes. The auto 8 is faster.

I'll pass you manual drivers while sipping a latte ��
