Sorry, sold the car.

Why o why doesn’t the blackwing sound like that?

That was car and driver's explanation as well-

So the precision package with the cup 2R just got the blackwing 1.5 seconds? The time is fine but kinda disappointing, I was hoping for a > 5 second jump. The RS3 for example had a nearly 10 second difference between a R compound tire and regular summer tires.

Nah, CT4 blackwing values will mirror ATS-V values in the long run IMO.

I thought you were exaggerating but nope. The photographer is definitely a toddler with a phone.

It's really hard to call the CT5-V blackwing underrated. If anything its the 4 which is actually underrated and overshadowed while being better than every other sport sedan bar its older brother.

Do the transmission issues extend to the Z06? It's one of my possible future cars.

That really sucks. A 100k+ car with no blind spot monitoring?

Lotus manuals are very hit/miss in my experience. Have not driven the Emira but the Evora could be anywhere from a great transmission to a downright bad one. From what I have heard from people who I trust the emira manual is still meh.

Miata too.

My 4BW is still unsold at carmax 1.5 months later. https://www.carmax.com/car/26493196 It goes to reserved now and then but comes right back :) carmax paid me 55k for it.

I think as a sporty grand tourer and mile muncher the c8 is an excellent option. Most of my complaints were due to it not being raw enough compared to my CT4 blackwing, the blackwing felt more like a sports car than the C8 for me. I would also consider a LC500 for your requirements.

I don't know about the 70K+ price though. Unless I really wanted the convertible I would save the 10-15K and get the supra.

As much as I like the Mach 1 and the dark horse to an extent once you’ve experienced the alpha chassis Camaro it’s hard to go back to mustangs. The Camaro is so much a better drive, actually op find a ss 1le or a zl1, it feels more playful and raw than the blackwings.

It’s my third car. So can be as impractical as it needs to be. I owned a nc prht. The nd3 is much better than that. The nd1 was a bit underpowered imo, they fixed that.

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...
