I’m in the process of selling the corvette. ☹ its a sad time especially since I put a lot of work and time into it, but only better things will come.

Essentially, I got a good offer last year at some of the cruise nights by an older gentleman. And after sleeping on it for 4 months or so, I’ve realized I would be happier with something newer as well as faster.

She’ll most likely be gone by the end of next month. He needs to arrange storage etc. I’m in no hurry, I won’t be buying anything until springtime anyways

🙂

andrew…

my dad sold his corvette, and is buying something new.

i am/was also in the car market.

but to answer your question its a 20th anniversary gti.

r32’s are nice, but overrated in my opinion…especially because its AWD with a bias towards FWD. :tdown:

THATS WHAT I SAID.

Its OVERRATED…MAINLY BECAUSE ITS AWD WITH A BIAS TOWARDS FWD. WHICH EQUALS A BIG :tdown:

pretty much every awd car on the market has a bias towards the front, minus the STi.

Quattro IV has a 50-50 distribution until acceleration and have traction, and then it becomes rear bias. Under decel it is front-bias.

The front bias is the least of the R32’s AWD concerns IMO.

that may be true for most chassis’s that were fwd to start with.  
ATTESA is rear biased, and i would imagine bmw’s awd system is as well.

congrats on moving up though!

Mad cars are rwd bias.

There’s more to good AWD then split numbers, though.
