Default 5at with vdc on 2005 cars?

I did a search and found topics on the subject but they were back in 03.

Does the same still go for the 2005 Z touring model? vdc only on 6mt?

VDC changes engine power and/or applies brakes individually as necessary to help stabilize the vehicle in severe turning situations (understeer/oversteer). VDC incorporates TCS and ABLS.

TCS operates at all speeds and limits drive-wheel slip under most conditions by changing engine power and /or upshifting the transmission.

35th Anniv is the only model that will incorporate VDC with the 5AT.
