![[VIDEOS] Let's Breakdown that Recent C8 Corvette Z06 Prototype Sighting](http://vinamotors.net/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/videos-manual-transmission-lets-breakdown-that-recent-c8-corvette-z06-prototype-sighting-once-again.jpg)
Earlier this week we shared a video of a C8 Corvette Z06 prototype testing out in Sedona, Arizona. If you haven’t seen it yet, it is good this will be first your look. If you have seen it, watch it again and see what we missed the first time around. So focused on trying to hear the flat-plane crank V8, we missed seeing the other mules and the Porsche in the background.
There has also been some debate starting with the original poster of the video that this prototype may have a manual transmission. Although we disagree, the blip from the driver and the subsequent take-off has others talking manual transmissions again, including our friend Mike from the Brink of Speed YouTube channel.
Mike breaks down the recent sighting and shows you what we missed the first time around and I will let him make the case as to why he thinks the Z06 will have a manual transmission (spoiler alert: it won’t).
From Brink of Speed on YouTube:
BIG NEWS! It Looks like the C8 Corvette Z06 will HAVE a MANUAL Transmission! Today, I wanted to bring this big news about the C8 Z06 to your attention! Will you order a C8 Z06 Corvette if it comes in a manual transmission?

So now that you’ve seen this enhanced version of the prototype sighting and heard Mike’s argument about the Z06 getting a manual transmission, let’s hear your thoughts by leaving a comment below.
