Aren’t M5 comps pushing 120?

If so not bad. Does that include the carbon ceramics?

I got mine to about 93k. Assume you added the ceramics?

No. I missed that option. I just added the carbon fiber ground effects. Because the base design is a little plain to me.

I’m going to be torn between the Blackwing powered ZL1 in 2023 and this car, to be honest. I would get either in a manual.

…..because. Automatic Porsche.

This does seem like a nice way to marry what you like about the e53 and what you like about the camaro into one swiss army knife car.
