    CT5-V C7 Z06 or CT5 V BW?

    thank you for this. Posting this question in the BW forum, I was sure the BW would be the hands-down favorite. The Z06 can be had for tens of thousands less, so maybe I'll find a local owner willing to take me on a joy ride to help the decision. also looks like yours was allocated and built...

    CT5-V C7 Z06 or CT5 V BW?

    eh.. I talked myself back into another BW.. Noticed that PDR isn't an option now, price also bumped over previous build.

    CT5-V C7 Z06 or CT5 V BW?

    I am looking for the American Muscle experience - manny, v8, sc. I am 6'3" and the caddy fit me fine, but the 997.2 turbo - not so much. I live in elevated Utah, so canyon runs and commute are my primary use cases. UMC road track likely during a few summer weekends. A car that I want to keep...

    CT5-V C7 Z06 or CT5 V BW?

    after having the IRS clawback my caddy money causing a liquidation of Blackwing 86-0329, I have settled all debts and refilled the Veblen Vehicle account. The seemingly simple question is, which to choose - a pre-loved C7 Z06 7SPD or another round of the BW goat rodeo? Has or does anyone here...

    CT5-V Leaving the goat rodeo - Looking for someone that might be interested in taking over my order

    The exact same thing happened to me.. Ordered the BW in August, delivered in March, then hit with a massive tax bill in April [ That I just sent into the treasury. You're welcome warmongers ] . Dealer will not let you chose who takes over your order. You will need to buy it, then sell it if...

    Considering Selling the BW.

    Thank you.. We found a home with a local buyer.. With the tax debt covered and a little luck, I am hopeful to be back in a BW before the run is done.

    Considering Selling the BW.

    I have about 4 weeks before need to remit payment.. If can't figure something out by then, I will give the auction sites a go.

    Considering Selling the BW.

    This is exactly what I am trying to avoid doing. More tax liability is not something I need in life ATM.

    Considering Selling the BW.

    I got hit with a large and [ mostly ] unexpected tax bill this year and am considering liquidating the blackwing to cover this. I am into the car for just shy of 110k after taxes and ceramic.. Figure I'd see if any interest here before taking the leap of listing on autotrader or similar. not...

    What Don't I Know About Bronze Wheels?

    I can confirm that the brake dust is heavy with the stock pads.. Almost turning my bronze wheels black after a few spirited canyon runs. but the wheels are damn sexy and I wouldn't change the spec even if I could.

    No Manual

    the 6spd was also a main driver for me to get the 5bw.. However, after 700+ miles of daily driving type duties, I have caught myself several times wondering if I should have opted for an auto. I think @Tall Steve did it right, a manny 5 for the garage queen and an a10 4bw for daily duties.

    CT5-V DILEMA

    I expect them to hold value and not meaningfully appreciate against inflation. It really depends on how many are made over the next few years. In any case, there will be a strong secondary market for the car in the future. You could certainly flip the car immediately for more than break even...
