Wife finds the CTS4 V Blackwing gross. I'd fight her for a CTS5 V Blackwing with manual but since i already have a "track car" ... the CTS5 is too much cash to tie up in a fun daily ... the 4V Blackwing is a really GOOD car but doesn't excite me. M3 is where i'd go for sub $100k manual car for daily. It just appeals to me more and i've really liked them in the past (F80s) ... i honestly think the FUN factor in an ITS or CTR is as high or higher and that's my main goal for this car. a really FUN car that can also work as a reasonable daily driver (more reasonable than my Sierra 2500 diesel).get a blackwing. What is another 10k on a 60k car. Integra is no bargain but anything over 50k, it loses all appeal for me.
Part of me is thinking, get a civic si for daily at 30k and slightly used 2020 miata or another sports car for 20k. In the end it will be best of both worlds. Agree, over 50k seems just too high.
i tried the "do everything" car model (F80 M3)and it didn't work. wasn't quite trackcar/raw enough to scratch that itch. now i have 4 cars because each has a specific job and i don't ask too much else. commuter, tow rig, track car, wife's car. for us it's perfect and i don't feel like any is a significant compromise.
Si & miata is a really good pairing.
