But the Manual is better for me as i live out in the country and love shifting through the gears on the country curvy roads and it will be better for circle track and road racing. Two different styles. This Manual was to good to let go.

Good choice!

I couldn't be happier with mine!

Man i feel for ya.. Driving these type of cars in the twisties is awsome. I would hate just constantly driving in a straight line especially if it was a lot of city traffic. On the bright side for you at least you dont have 6 months of winter and have to park your car for weeks and sometimes months! It sucks..

before this thread dies out... fyi, you CAN lower the windows from the key fob in the M6 -- hold the unlock button for 5 seconds.

Good choice, I think the overall driving satisfaction you get with the M6 is worth it.

BowtieRocket · 10-05-2016, 08:54 PM

Right on bro! Congrats!

Question does anyone know if there can be any added discounts ontop of the 20% tags...ie. other incentives or employee pricing?

BowtieRocket · 10-05-2016, 09:06 PM

Holding it for 5sec still doesnt work for me on mine...

Congrats on the M6!.

weird... all I can think of is to make sure the car is locked first before holding the unlock button.

I was astonished when a dealer told me 98% of Camaro's and Corvette's sold are autos!
I guess I’m old school and believe a muscle car has to have a manual trans so the driver can have the total experience of driving. Automatics are like no alcohol beer. JMO
