Rubber is right. I forgot about the muting function, I do use that a lot. Also, some forget, the advantage of the physical knob is that you can use it without looking. For me, even the controls on the steering wheel can rarely be used without looking because my other car's buttons are not in...

Hey, I need my coffee. And booze.

Wow. This quickly degenerated into a techie-word-jumble of obscure (to me) technology acronyms. Based on the OP's original question, or OQ, I'd say that it really depends on whether or not you want those options. The CF bits look great, but me personally, I can do without all of the other...

It was great to meet Sonny in person as well as the other (all but one) unknown-to-me BW owners. Chilly does not begin to describe the day, as it was in the 20s to start, and although it got into the thirties the wind picked up and it remained cold. You Yankees are probably laughing at me, but...

I can't find much with Google, but it looks like around 1800 CT5V-BW were produced in model year 2022. If we keep the math simple and presume 2000 for 2023 and 2024, then that's 6000 cars made so far. Assume that (from what I read here) the average owner drives 5000 miles a year, and that half...

LOL, yeah, sure they do. I'm as OCD as the next guy, if not more so. And when I take my car in for service, if the dealer offers a complimentary wash, I tell them not to. But the dealer is going to wash the car, unless you (like @centex) tell them to leave on the plastic, because it's going...

I had a C5 Z06 and 'normal' C6 & C7 variants, all properly equipped with three pedals. The C6 was a big step up in interior materials. The base C6 had more horsepower than the C5 Z06, although IIRC less torque, weighed more and of course, suspension and brakes. Aside from looks, which tends...

Apparently the Bay area dealers suck as much as the dealers in my area. Most of them wouldn't even talk to me about putting my name on a list for the BW. I found my car in stock in Michigan and bought it remotely @ MSRP and had it shipped. Even the additional cost of shipping was less than...

Skinny blonde chick with more money than Elon.

Don't confuse the discussion with facts. ;) I'm still stuck on this: ;shrug

Thanks for the try. I had, didn't care for the C7, I've had 2 C6s and they're good cars, but the Z06 is way stiff on the road and has engine issues. And expensive. Says the guy that just bought another new car, LOL. As for the rest of you mooks: let's keep this thread civil, eh? This...

So, first, congrats. Details on the model year, engine, etc. please as I don't know when they started/ended with the V12 or if it was even available with three pedals. Second, great color choice. Third, I almost bought a Vantage. Twice. Actually, three times, but the first time it slipped...

Well, at least you didn't write "you're confusion". ;)

Man oh man, you people really need to proofread...

Did you mean "not true"? I think we have to step back and ask what the poster means by "geared much taller". Does he/she mean final drive ratio, top speed, spacing of ratios between 1 and 6, etc.? Oops, I went back to the original (since he/she wasn't quote in entirety) which said "The 4BW...

Gawd. This kind of thing happens far too often. Yeah, we've been saying that here for years. LOL. j/k My employer has a nice defined pension plan, but it also has the option of taking a lump sum. Basically, at retirement, they buy an annuity to make the monthly payments as defined...

LOL, @DCV. I had a team meeting scheduled for 10 AM last week when my boss gave me a heads-up that he was sending out an important email about work from home at 10, so I delayed the meeting so that everyone could read it and we could discuss. One of my folks asked if I was going to announce my...

Well, you know what they say about opinions. ;) I don't think the Supra and M2 are similar, they are on different platforms, one is a two seater, the other is a 3 series that was left in the dryer for too long.* The windshield is big enough, but you are very close to it, and also to the rear...

I've posted elsewhere on this forum that I don't expect you to find, the following observations: - I've owned an F87 M2 (six speed). Really cute little car, it was absolutely miserable to drive anywhere on normal streets, it had the M performance exhaust which was hideous and droned and I...

Absolutely, if you can find one to drive, try the CT5. You may not like it either, but it's worth a shot. Was your test drive too short? I don't know, how long was it? As other have noted, you are comparing light nimble cars like the Cayman and Miata to a large, heavy American car. There's...
