Imagine how many times someone has to have been whooped by an A10 to feel the need to come in here and proclaim they have a penis? Maybe you do have a penis, but you obviously need to start beating some A10s to compensate for your micro member.

Transmission war in 2025?
It's never been a harder decision and to be honest, you win either way?
I chose the manual because I just really prefer the sensation of shifting myself, but also made the decision fully knowing the auto is faster.
This was the only car where I even considered an auto because of that. I still want to ride in one to feel what its like, but I'm sure the quick shifts and extra gears are amazing.

SS captains chart shows V6 manual faster to 60 . That is open differential vs the manual limited slip. At the 1/4 mile the auto chatches up and is 3 mph faster

I knew I wanted a manual since my last two cars were manuals (`94 Z28, `12 Camaro SS) and I enjoy driving manual. I was also aware that the auto was quicker. My car is a daily driver so absolute quickness was not necessary. Manual transmissions also allow for occasional commutes the day after a snow event (within reason) so it makes sense for a daily/all season driver. I agree, I would like to drive an automatic SS. I suspect it will be awesome. You're not shifting faster than a robot, that's for sure.

This just in! I don't have a penis!

Why play with your own gearbox when you can have someone else do it for you?

Not sayin' just sayin'

I've only seen the one video of one of the trucks have the wheel lockup, sure it's possible on ours but no one's posted it yet.


A10 was so fast they stopped building all Camaro's lol
