Chevrolet has confirmed that the upcoming C8 Corvette will not be offered with a manual transmission, prompting an aftermarket firm to step in and create a manual conversion kit. The company’s prototype would allow owners to experience a traditional driving feel, but the conversion is expected to be pricey, with estimates reaching up to $70,000. This move highlights the growing demand for manual options among Corvette enthusiasts and the lengths some manufacturers will go to meet that demand.
Chevy won't build a manual C8 Corvette, so one aftermarket company is taking matters into its own hands. But it could cost up to $70,000.
