So just to clarify. I said “all around” and “used sports car value.” So, yes there are better track focused sports cars. And mentioning auto-cross and insinuating those who participate are only using real sports cars kind of discredits your opinion considering there’s miatas and shit there.
As far as looks, that’s subjective.
Yes, not having a manual trans is lame, but that’s what way it goes these days.
As far as weight, 3600 lbs really isn’t that bad. M3’s weigh that.
The huge point I’m trying to make here is the value for money. This car stickers for $120k+. You can now get 2016-17 models for mid $60k with low-ish miles.
500hp 4.0 liter twin turbo V8
dynamic ride
massive brakes
hydraulic steering
low 7 minutes at the Nürburgring. That’s hauling ass for a non R/GT3 type sports car.
This isn’t a track car argument. This is a daily car that wouldn’t suck on a track. I’ll have an LS swapped E36 for the track.
Man am i glad i opened up my laptop and saw this, wouldve taken forever to respond. From 100+wpm to 20 lol
I had a feeling your were going to mention nurburgring , good point there. brakes yeah, dynamic ride also good point tbh
500 hp twin turbo v8 yeah good argument there i forgot about the turbos, the tunes are insane for amg cars.
3600 lbs isnt bad at all, i think a gt mustang is 3700 iirc
I guess after reading your statement,
you have changed my mind and i retract my previously suggested ctsv as a viable car vs gts amg. ? ?
