    Custom fabricated exhaust

    Yeah if they can do a full system for the 4BW I'm definitely interested.

    ct4 v blackwing upgraded rotors

    It looks like Girodisc finally has them up, $1,300 for fronts, $1,200 for rears. Replacement rings are $1k front (and actually use the generic D1-066 and $850 rear. I don't think the rears are worth it given the OE rotors look like they're $155 each on RockAuto right now. The fronts will be...

    Dealers That Are Not Charging Above MSRP

    Yes, please do let us know if you can get one for the price of an SS 1LE.

    Media dumps

    Yeah, that transmission is ancient and brutally slow from some of the reviews I've seen. I briefly looked for one last summer before realizing I'd always regret losing the manual more than losing the V8.

    Those are not them, I think you're actually set up properly.

    Question, am I the only one who.....???

    Yeah @jrhammer it's front-only (and leave them in the trunk if you ever need to get the car on a flatbed tow truck). If you see the yellow, go back and crack some skulls at the dealer and then enjoy the magride magic like the rest of us.

    Question, am I the only one who.....???

    Most likely that's just how it is. There's only so much magic you can engineer into the suspension with 19 inch wheels. The general consensus (mine included) is that tour mode is amazingly comfortable given the car can also, with the press of a button, rip your face off around a race track. I...

    On Star trial

    We might need a generational dunk contest thread. Could be fun. Boomers vs. Xers vs. Millennials. (I'm kidding and we shouldn't make poor @Rob deal with that level of idiocy)

    Media dumps

    From a "daily and a sports car" perspective, yes, really. You could do a lot worse than a 500 HP N/A V8 with a stick. I'd take one over a base C8. Z06 would be a different story but also different price point. Boxster/Cayman GTS 4.0 also in the running with some other stuff too, obviously. I'd...

    That's fair. I didn't know the GM lap times. On equal rubber I agree it's probably damn close then.

    Media dumps

    I would think it's faster everywhere, but a worse DD, especially with the handling pack which lets it run those lap times. A Mach 1 on Cup 2s ran a 2:51.x in C&D lightning lap. 4BW is 2:54.x Would be one hell of a two car garage though!

    Is it totaled?

    The same M2 without adjustable front camber and dinky single piston floating rear calipers? I guess there's a chance they make the inevitable Competition/CS model more capable (though note, the M4 CSL still has the same cheap setup) but as it sits I don't think it's close. It even weighs about...

    Opinions on the Current State of CT4-V Blackwing (including Track Editions) Pricing

    I paid MSRP for mine in 2022. Zero regrets. Skipped the price bump and interest rates doubling. Do the math on the interest expense and those "savings" disappear very quickly.

    Spring Mountain Impressions

    If you're not already aware, the rental car center if off-site so you need to account for drop off there, grabbing the shuttle to the airport, etc. Could easily add a half hour before you're even at security.

    Dealers That Are Not Charging Above MSRP

    I'm consistently befuddled with Gold Coast. I bought it over the phone from them in June of last year, MSRP deal, drove down two days later and picked it up. No add-ons or anything. Brought my own financing. Granted it was a 4 and not a 5, but weird the variety of experiences other people...

    Parked with a GM cousin briefly while picking up dinner. With a similarly silly vanity plate.
