Lexus RCF could be an option if you want something a little different and with a great character V8. Also should be good on the reliability and depreciation side. Lotus Evora may be interesting too and technically is a +2 with manual option. Toyota powertrain though otherwise cant speak to...

There were a couple other inquiries recently about pulling over rev info but I haven't seen anything definitive on how to retrieve that info. I have to imagine that it would be stored on the ECU. Probably over thinking it, but I have heard other GM vehicles and brands having warranties denied...

Definitely a good value for the next person, but I think spending $14k or so over 2 years is good for the first owner too. You basically worked out a 0 down, ~$600/month lease over 24 months on the BW which is a great deal

The specific tire/compound may be the biggest factor, but the sizing differences would also impact handling. You rim and sidewalk are larger as is the width and resultant contact patch. The turn in, body roll/weight transfer, and other handling characteristics would all be affected. All...

Mine does not engage all gears, seemingly goes 'halfway' in some cases and generally lacks smoothness Also have some of the operational issues folks have noted including the 'crunchy/notchy' 2nd gear shift and occasional popping out of 1st. I'll be going to SM nearterm and am interested to...

Yeah, when I got my charger I saw that the top speed was 127 mph. Having a manual in the mix though feels like more damage could be done so would be nice to know whether new or used if there's a way to specifically check any codes for things like over rev

Interesting timing, I was recently thinking about this relative to 'money shifting' particularly during the break in period (my car had 200 miles at purchase so started worrying about anything that could've happened). I was curious if it logged that on the ECU, but maybe it just isn't possible...

Did you get any additional info on this? A friend just scared me recently discussing dealer transfer stories (attendants driving cars between dealers). My car had ~200 miles on it new so got me thinking... It sounds like the ECU may store over rev conditions for warranty reasons but haven't...

Regular V fake BW badge what do I win

Had to make a 'speedy' exit, but nice meeting you fellas earlier. Great showing, gonna make this part of the regular routine

I'm planning to go

Any issues/regrets? I was thinking maybe the brake dust would be more noticeable, or road debris causing chips easily etc

Looks great man. Which rims did you have to start? And how much did they charge to do the gloss black?

Nice, I like it. I went opposite way charger to BW, gotta try them all!

Anybody seeking new or used car financing should check out United States Senate Federal Credit Union Aside from specials like this direct thru the car companies, I've found their rates the lowest (right now they are at 5.74 for 72, 5.99 for 84 on new auto loans)
