And the 8 spds shift fast as they are computer controlled and shorter gears, the downside for some is they are always shifting......

For 2015 only the Corvette is getting the 8 Speed, the only other car in the line up that has a 8 Speed is the CTS sedan, that 8 Speed is not a GM product. I will assume 2016 models will have the 8 Speed across the board.
