Hope you have a Blackwing loaner or at least a V or Escalade. :D

Hey Jeff, we have a similar car background. I've had a ton of cars the past several years from the BRZ, Corolla GR, new Type S Integra, then on the other end an Escalade V, C6 ZR1, Ford Lightning, TRX, C8 Z51, Model S Plaid (new '24 I just got), etc. I've also driven the 4BW predecessor in...

Bunch of mouth breathing libtards in Austin that let the criminals run rampant. Sad state of affairs there. Sorry about your trouble, Brad.

Okay, this thread is going off the rails. Moderators, please step in.

Yeah, you suck, 1evil55. :D :D Seriously, a V wagon with six-speed, a detuned LT7, and maybe AWD (weight for some traction) and people would be KICKING the doors down at Cadillac dealers nationwide.

I don't deny being slightly interested in the new M5 wagon, but it's a FATTY and will feel very isolated. But, for running the kids to soccer practice and bombing to work on the highway, it'll be a machine. That said, keeping my 5BW forever.

So, I had a '24 GR Corolla that I traded in for the '24 Type S. IF, and I mean IF, you don't need much interior or cargo room (i.e. kids and crap in the back), seriously consider the GR. It was MORE fun to drive around town than my Type S. That turbo triple, six-speed, AWD traction, bulldog...

I'm 47 with two younger boys so not retiring anytime soon unfortunately. So, I had a '24 Acura Integra Type S for many months to complement my 5BW, two Vettes, truck, and Acura. haha. So, that was the crux of the problem. I drive my truck during the week (work) and on the weekends, I had two...

Sounds like you answered your own question that there is really no compelling reason to upgrade besides the color and more factory warranty coverage. Hoping for a last year Blackwing hurrah with a slightly detuned LT7. hahahaha.

Hope the engine is fine and the two truck company damage is fixed!

I went through a '24 Corolla GR Premium to a '24 Integra Type S (just for the greater interior room to haul my wife and two kids) to selling the ITS all in the matter of a year. Honestly, both cars were very nice and very fun to drive. I actually enjoyed the GR a bit more for tossing around...

I was driving to work in my '23 Silverado with the 3.0 diesel this morning (awesome truck engine, btw!) and thinking about what a great engine it is, but I'd probably be driving the 6.2 if I didn't already have 3 at home in Corvettes and a Blackwing. :D :D I'll never not have at least one V8.

So, I actually traded a '22 BRZ Limited six-speed manual for the '24 C8. For around town driving, the BRZ was actually more fun and engaging. The C8 is highly more capable and an incredibly engineered machine, But due to the very fact of it's high capabilities and high limits, the C8 isn't as...

I have a '24 C8 stripper with basically just Z51. It's my track toy, but it's still fun to take the top off and cruise around town with one of my sons. You have to push it hard to feel the benefits over the Blackwings, namely turn-in, nice rev matched DCT downshifts and upshifts, feels...

I've also been through a lot of vehicles the past several years (COVID FOMO, etc.). Two that will remain in my 'permanent' collection are my C6 ZR1 and '22 CT5VBW six-speed #26. The breadth of capability between comfort, performance, fun, and overall drivability are unmatched in the automotive...

This is true, but you always need to know your powerband and how to extract it. I think the LT6 would add much more theater to the normal drive, even if you have to get the revs up. That would be the joy of the LT6, not that it's a better overall application to the LT4. I love the LT4 in my...

I know something that would light a fire on Blackwing sales. Strap in the LT6 with a six-speed manual. I'd run over grandma's crossing the street to get to the dealer first to order that thing. Would keep my '22 though. :D :D :D

I'm not as involved as I'm now in the 4th! year of ownership with my 5BW six-speed and it just works. I drive it on the weekends (work truck during the week) and it's just a joy to own and drive. No issues at all. Oil changes, tires, and go. Still one of the nicest cars I've ever driven and...

Day trading for a career is very, very hard. I've had a few employees leave to do it and then have since come back to work for us. I wish Dustin the very best and hope he's one of the exceptions that keeps killing it day trading, but I also wouldn't mind if he decided to come back to Sewell...
