Will new C7 Z06 become a Hertz fleet rental?

The only reason why this not happened with the previous generation of Corvette, was the lack of automatic transmission in high performance models.  Now, +Tadge Juechter  already clarified that 8L90 8-speed transmission will be offered on new Z06. 

The real question here is if the automatic is being offered solely due to the typical AARP belonging owners inability to demonstrate agility and ability to drive or is there also a back up plan here to create a two tier rental line up at Hertz, just in case the new Z06 fails to launch (pun intended)?  Yes, the availability of automatic makes this scenario a real possibility.
