Pics of your Blackwing in regular parking spots

[swoop1156]

Definitely not a normal parking spot, but is there a dedicated picture thread otherwise? Didn't see it.

Anyway, one doesn't simply pass by Bristol Motor Speedway and not take some pictures!

Can't wait for the next time they have a charity event to do laps around the track. I've had my wife's Porsche Cayenne Turbo S e-hybrid around it many times. Blackwing needs some laps!

Hit 500+ miles today. Service scheduled for an oil, transmission, and differential flush/change, and an alignment.

It’s been real guys! This is likely my last pic. Might try and snag a few more tomorrow AM. Selling it tomorrow at 2PM. Put 51,500 miles on it over the past 2 years and 9 months.

Sorry to see the red porn star go. Glad you enjoyed it!

What're you moving on to?

What're you moving on to?

Going to a BMW M2. Took me a while but I’ve come around to the styling on them. Test drove one in mid March and placed an order two days later.

let us know how it compares

Damn really? I mean I can understand the performance aspect but everything else is just not there.
So many complain about the build quality of newer BMW's. The screens EVERYWHERE.
I could never get over the styling (both interior and exterior) but I guess to each their own as they say.

At the end of the day it's whatever makes you happy. So congrats to you!

I've had my eyes on the M2 as well -- I personally like them and am questioning whether to: 1) add to my garage and/or 2) replace my 5BW (my commute dramatically changed recently and I'm just not driving it as much)

I would love your feedback on it once you've had it for a while.

I like the styling

Build quality can't be any worse than my Cadillac was (I know, I got unlucky... and I really hope I don't regret saying that!!!)

At the end of the day I'm really grateful I get to drive what may be some of the last easily obtainable high performance manual cars out there.

One last pic... she's gone now

Hope you enjoy the new M2. The styling of the M2 also grew on me and I think it looks better in person. Kinda reminds me of a Renault 5 Turbo from the 80s with the boxy styling. Did you get a manual? Let us know how it compares.

Yeah, once I've started seeing more in person the styling made a lot more sense. I am going to lower it just a bit and put spacers on it too, I think it will help. The only thing I really don't care for is the rear taillights.

Yes to the manual! Based on my brief test drive before ordering the transmission is not as good as the TREMEC but better than I expected with how many complaints I've read online.
