Its hard to justify something like this over the blackwing. Looking for something more impractical than the blackwing but just as/more fun.

So my wife got another high performance sedan(RS3) and now we have 2 cars which are very similar(4 doors, 4 seats etc) and I am allowed to get a less practical car if I can make it work financially. Carmax offered 55K for my 23 CT4 BW and lets say that's the budget for this endeavor- What would...

Test drove a c8 z51 while waiting for a carmax appraisal and was underwhelmed. Surprisingly my biggest issue was lack of drama from the v8. It’s not that loud inside even in track mode and at low or medium speeds I couldn’t hear it at all. The steering is absolutely numb. Like much worse than...

The car brands with the least-speeding drivers are Cadillac, at 5.4%; Good work folks.

I have a hard time believing this.

The Z06 is my semi-attainable dream car and probably what I would get if I could swing it from the CT4 BW I have. What made you go in the other direction?

Looking for a set of good condition bronze wheels. Located in Bay Area California. Can trade plus cash of the standard wheels or do a cash deal.

So the 4bw made it to 25 with no changes at all? Apart from colors ie.

But you’re not getting one at 45k. Dealers gonna sell it for at least 50+

☝️ Totally this. I feel all you need with our cars is manual and non base seats. Anything else is a bonus.

Yeah those with significant options are definitely getting hosed in the retail market. I think those will be appreciated by enthusiasts after production ends or a few years from now. In trade in scenarios I have seen options getting only hundreds of dollars more(i.e negligible)

I don’t think this is unique to the ct4 blackwing. Used g80 m3 seems to be doing about the same. 10k loss on a 62k car after 2-3 years doesn’t seem bad to me?

Still crickets, did they forget they made the CT4 too?

Man I thought the z06 would be a keeper.

lol. So which car is out? The z06 or the Camaro.

Didn’t realize the blackwing had shorter gearing than the Camaros.

I was just about to type in my previous message to get a cheaper GM product like a camaro or a used C6/C7. Good choice!

My last car was a 22 BRZ. As a track toy the only issue is the oil starvation issues on high G corners. I have been hearing there's an aftermarket fix in development but keep that in mind. Why not track the blackwing? Consumables?

You’re not alone. It somehow places the c8 last in my list. I know it’s a great gearbox etc. but a manual is just half the fun in a fun car.

Hows your Z06? Is it a keeper? I know you have had a rotating door of cars in the last few years.
