2015 Corvette Stingray buyers will have a new transmission option when they head to dealer lots next year: An eight-speed automatic that will supposedly weight less than the six-speed it replaces and boasting quicker shift times than the dual-clutch in the Porsche 911.

And now they’re offering a new Limited Edition DBS which uses the other reason for a Limited Edition Car – the anniversary.
