Sounds like you answered your own question that there is really no compelling reason to upgrade besides the color and more factory warranty coverage. Hoping for a last year Blackwing hurrah with a slightly detuned LT7. hahahaha.

Hope the engine is fine and the two truck company damage is fixed!

I went through a '24 Corolla GR Premium to a '24 Integra Type S (just for the greater interior room to haul my wife and two kids) to selling the ITS all in the matter of a year. Honestly, both cars were very nice and very fun to drive. I actually enjoyed the GR a bit more for tossing around...

I was driving to work in my '23 Silverado with the 3.0 diesel this morning (awesome truck engine, btw!) and thinking about what a great engine it is, but I'd probably be driving the 6.2 if I didn't already have 3 at home in Corvettes and a Blackwing. :D :D I'll never not have at least one V8.

So, I actually traded a '22 BRZ Limited six-speed manual for the '24 C8. For around town driving, the BRZ was actually more fun and engaging. The C8 is highly more capable and an incredibly engineered machine, But due to the very fact of it's high capabilities and high limits, the C8 isn't as...

I have a '24 C8 stripper with basically just Z51. It's my track toy, but it's still fun to take the top off and cruise around town with one of my sons. You have to push it hard to feel the benefits over the Blackwings, namely turn-in, nice rev matched DCT downshifts and upshifts, feels...

I've also been through a lot of vehicles the past several years (COVID FOMO, etc.). Two that will remain in my 'permanent' collection are my C6 ZR1 and '22 CT5VBW six-speed #26. The breadth of capability between comfort, performance, fun, and overall drivability are unmatched in the automotive...

This is true, but you always need to know your powerband and how to extract it. I think the LT6 would add much more theater to the normal drive, even if you have to get the revs up. That would be the joy of the LT6, not that it's a better overall application to the LT4. I love the LT4 in my...

I know something that would light a fire on Blackwing sales. Strap in the LT6 with a six-speed manual. I'd run over grandma's crossing the street to get to the dealer first to order that thing. Would keep my '22 though. :D :D :D

I'm not as involved as I'm now in the 4th! year of ownership with my 5BW six-speed and it just works. I drive it on the weekends (work truck during the week) and it's just a joy to own and drive. No issues at all. Oil changes, tires, and go. Still one of the nicest cars I've ever driven and...

Day trading for a career is very, very hard. I've had a few employees leave to do it and then have since come back to work for us. I wish Dustin the very best and hope he's one of the exceptions that keeps killing it day trading, but I also wouldn't mind if he decided to come back to Sewell...

TX Goat (Rodeo!) Nice!

Did you rob an off-road light store, Steve? :D :D :D Seriously though, do the lights behind the grille impact airflow to that Turbomax engine?

He's the crown prince (aka sales manager).

Call them and ask for Blake Thompson.

My six-speed manual '24 Acura Integra Type S has adaptive cruise control and it works pretty good. Am also surprised my 5BW six-speed doesn't. That said, I hardly use cruise control when flogging the BW, so not that big of a deal. :D So, how the adaptive cruise works on the Acura is when...

Both the A10 and 6MT 4BW are great cars. Don't forget only the manual 4BW gets titanium connecting rods (FWIW). Either way, you can't go wrong with whatever works best for you. I have a 5BW six-speed and I've never wanted for the A10 personally. One of the main reasons to get the Blackwings...

The 992 GT3 is a game changer over the Cayman/Boxster platform though due to the double wishbone front suspension. Once you figure out how to drive a 911 with the rear-weight bias, it is exceptionally capable. Not taking anything away from the mid-engine Boxster/Cayman as it's a top-notch...
