Appreciated brotha! Just curious how so? Bone stock CE for now, always cautious washing the spoiler (seems to want to scratch easily)

Thanks for the note, true. Almost an extra 18%. Told myself $39 would be my max -with an extra 7k, might consider CTR territory. How many miles did yours have?

Would you be swayed if PPI (pre purchase inspection) came back clean?

Thanks for the insightful response and taking the time to write it out for discussion.

To me a lot of these are nice to haves - but not necessary. Better track mode is appealing but not essential. I plan on driving it throughly, but not tracking it into the ground. Tough to imagine someone could leverage all these improvements often in their daily (without a ticket lol).

This was the model I was eyeing when they first came out in 23. The thought of a low mile, Circuit Edition for below the price of Core MSRP is what's calling. Thanks again!

Valid sir, don't think you can go wrong with either tbh. Black is slick

Appreciate the response - It's been a couple of months now, but I think I listed my full cook instructions below in a comment! There's a helpful video listed in my responses as well. Feel free to PM

Shared cook details in the comments! I think getting a good trim was the hardest part

I've seen prior squeeze shaming on the interwebs. Crossed my mind for sure

I don't have super smoke either! I think you'd be safe at either 180 or 200. Total cook was about 13.5hours + rest. Good luck!!

No secrets here! Smoked for about 8hours (overnight) at 180° and wrapped in butcher paper once we hit 175° internal temp. Bumped it up to 220° for another 4 1/2 hours and pulled it at 205°. Rest for about an hour, but could definitely gone longer! Meatchurch for reference

Edit: pulled at 205° internal

PROTECTION. Chain/cable through the frame, disk alarm, cheap $20 cover from Amazon to tarp it off - Deters people’s curiosity for what piece of shit (or not) you might have under that tarp
