And the answer to this was an s4? Ok…..

Really? I test drove one when we were getting our RS3 and the S4 felt very meh. I don't think its anywhere in the league of the blackwing. Felt closer to a regular CT4-V.

Buying is different than selling :) You should see how much they're going to try to sell your 4BW for.

I am seeing roughly 15% depreciation for both the blackwings (Both 2023s, both lightly specced) Both 23's manuals with under 10k miles CT4 is worth about 55K trade in(65K MSRP) and the CT5 is worth around 85K trade in(100K MSRP). All I'm saying is the 4 is not doing any worse than the 5. Now if...

Doesn't seem to be helping the 5. ;shrug

Oh yeah, the targa is one of the factors tempting me. However at this point I am also exploring a cheap-ish ND2 miata.

I have a hard time wrapping my head around going through all the trouble to get a new car to get the same car. :) If you’re getting another car get a differnt one.

Isn’t the blackwing the answer for this? The 5 ie. Or is it a case of been there done that and too quiet inside?

So a c8 stingray? That’s a surprise given your car history.

Please capture sound inside the cabin corsa vs stock.

Wait. Don’t you have a z06 right now? Even that’s too quiet? What are you doing GM? 🤦‍♂️

See you didn’t have to give up your blackwing.

I have been thinking about this. For what I ll need to put in to get a ct5 blackwing or c8 I could just get a Miata and keep the blackwing too. I just don’t have the space for it, it will get parked outside.

This. I think unless I go for the bigger blackwing there’s not much which is going to effectively replace it.

Damnit, my screen name keeps getting in the way of my message.

A dealer reached out to me with 15% off brand new 2LT Z51. I am really tempted to get rid of the blackwing and scratch my v8 coupe itch. Waddya all think?

Not surprising. Carmax, carvana vroom etc offer prices much closer to private party values. They hope to make their money by scale and efficiency of operations.

I think this is true for both blackwings. The options really don't add any value maybe beyond the seats. In trade in scenarios these add maybe a few hundred dollars to the value of the car. So best bet is get the least number of options if you plan to sell the car at some point.If you're...

Just to be very clear. I want more noise(hopefully pleasant) inside the car. It’s plenty loud outside. And the seat thing while valid beats the point of having a sedan.
