The new Automatics in Vettes are putting out better track times than the
standards were...
Nothing but calf workout and replacing a clutch to having a standard 6 speed
anymore.

It sat in the showroom for a very long time - I wondered who would want
an automatic sports car but he was certain it would sell (probably to a
woman who wanted the sports look without the actual "sports").

Eric, It could be for an amputee who still loves sports cars but can't drive

a stick anymore.  Although, it is more likely that you are right that it is 
more about image than anything.  You would be surprised at the number of 
Corvettes here in the states that are sold with automatics.   I have heard 
that they outnumber sticks, but don't know if that is true.
