I know its been a few years since I've seen and replied to this thread. Having good seat time since my ZL1's infancy has generated some thoughts about the M6. To a novice the manual may seem imposing. I have found that the driveline can be forgiving to newcomers. When you get up to speed on the driveline, you will find that it is very responsive, and explosive when it comes to acceleration. It also reacts very well to different shifting styles with the clutch. GM's Automatics are very good transmissions, so I don't have a bad word to say about them; IMO any 5th gen ZL1, and especially the 5th and 6th generation 1LE, you would be missing out on a great driving experience without a 6 spd. manual.
