Used Value Trend

Talk about timing- both of us exit the 4BW at the same time

I am looking for something more impractical than the blackwing- Mine sat a lot too especially after wife got the RS3- that was the go to fun family car. So my logic was if I am going to use the blackwing only for true solo fun might as well get something made for that.

Might explore getting a cayman/boxster. If that fails I might wind up in a C8 or C7. If all that fails I am thinking a ND2+ miata.

If you still want to save the manuals, the C8 is out. The C7 is great but honestly I prefer the C6, especially the 6-speed over the 7-speed.. The Miata is great if you like cheap plastic everywhere and no power (but it is a blast to drive). Really you need the Cayman/Boxster, in 6-cylinder form, preferably the GT4 if you can swing it.

If you still want to save the manuals

I may be abandoning that crusade for a while. I think I have done my bit in the last 4 years- 3 manual cars bought and released into the wild.
