My wife just wasn't comfortable with trying to learn to drive it and I didn't want to leave her out of the experience. She would have went with whatever I chose, but I could tell she wanted a little more simplicity. She was quite relieved when I chose the A10

I liked that you noted how wonderful the clutch felt in your post....I felt the same, albeit I didn't drive it at the time.

For those folks that are ordering the manual transmission - they're in for a real treat: 650hp w/ rev-matching, and beautiful man/machine interactions through the clutch and shifter...

But that A10....

Is the NGM lighter than AGM? I love it regardless.

I believe it is. NGM closer to the CGM. The AGM is slightly darker in the sunlight.

Love that color also
Gloss black Z28 style rims I think would really look nice on it.
