Why I made the move from the ct4 blackwing to my nd3 Miata. Put a 500$ exhaust on it and you can redline on gear changes and still be close to speed limits. Couldn’t do that in my blackwing.

That's an awesome cool car. Much more interesting than hey ma look I have a Porsche now. PS- why are some people being <you know what> to you- lol.

Are you comparing it with a miata or the m2 comp? Lets get that out of the way. This is still a 3800 lb 4 door car, its not going to feel as fun as a 2300 lb 2 seater. Now onto the m2 competition. I am presuming you are talking about the F87. What it seems like you want it twitchy and tail...

For me the biggest issue with the supra was me hitting my head thrice(On entry and exit) on the extended test drive with carmax. Its a very weird roof/cabin position.

Blackwing!

I JUST fit in mine. And it’s on the non recaros. I don’t fit in the recaros. Might explore a bucket or the brackets at some point to get even lower.

I agree, the red is gorgeous. IMO its the only good miata color. Everything else is a shade of grey. It was also a little hard to find as its end of the year and not many 24s are around anymore. Found this and jumped on it.

Looks like I can keep my user name after all. Might be on the wrong manufacturer forum though ;) ND3 grand touring, manual of course. I wanted something completely different than the blackwing- it was between this, a boxster and a C8. I hope the cheapest choice winds up being the best. First...

Man y’all a bunch of cry babies. It took me 2 days after which pressing the break became second nature.

He sold the Z06 for a regular C8 as far as I know.

Carmax with some real ambitious pricing a car I traded in- https://www.carmax.com/car/26493196 I got 55K- car's MSRP is 65K

I may be abandoning that crusade for a while. I think I have done my bit in the last 4 years- 3 manual cars bought and released into the wild.

Talk about timing- both of us exit the 4BW at the same time :) I am looking for something more impractical than the blackwing- Mine sat a lot too especially after wife got the RS3- that was the go to fun family car. So my logic was if I am going to use the blackwing only for true solo fun...

I thought I did my part- bought a manual blackwing, and released it to the wild. Now thanks to me there’s one more of them.

Might get flak for this but might not be a manual.

Something more impractical. Not sure what yet.

Sold mine for 55k to carmax today. Msrp was 64.5. 7.5k miles. I think if you keep the options down the ct4 v blackwing holds its value too. 10k down in 2 years ain’t bad at all.

Sold it. Bye bluey, you were awesome. 😭 Ps- carmax still has pretty decent offers, I lost <10k over 2 years.

We should do a more central bay area meetup- Alice's would be a perfect central spot for everyone.

Wait, this is for the dark horse? 10K off MSRP would get me in a dark horse too :P Sometimes I hate living in CA- we never see these kind of deals.
