Canada here: Wtf is a “dim”?

The outside passenger bolster in my new Blackwing looks a bit like this, too, but not so much that I’m going to make a claim. I figure that eventually the wear on the driver side bolsters will “catch up” to match as I will be driving without a passenger more often than not. If it were as much of...

Here’s a shot of one of the mats in a 24:

I’m thinking of blacking out the Blackwing script on my Lloyds mats, maybe with a marker, maybe spray dye, but leaving the wings as they are. I find them a little over the top, a little too loud, as they are, especially in my new 24 with its more striking tan seat interior (these photos were...

I have mixed feelings about the double-porthole style CT5 sunroof so I passed on it when ordering my 24 even though I had it on the 22. If it was truly panoramic I think I would have ordered it again. But it’s not, not really, it just looks like it is from the outside. On the inside, the first...

Biggest difference is actually on the inside. The 22 just had the standard seats. And this time no sunroof.

Goodbye Blackwing, hello Redwing.

Wait, what? Is that a CT4 thing?

Thanks for the info. Given that and the fact I’m only about 300 miles from the factory, I’m guessing mine will arrive this week and will be available the week after that, if not this week, too.

I didn’t ask because I knew what it was from what he told me. Which, given his description, is that it’s 4000. He’s a good sales manager who will, by the end of this month or so, have processed two new purchases for me at MSRP and two trade-ins for more than what I paid for the traded-in cars...

Anyone here recently taken delivery of a new Blackwing built in February or March? As some of you know, I’m trading in my 22 for a 24 and I am curious about how long it takes from build to delivery these days. Mine is a 6 speed CT5. It was built on March 21 and I’m waiting for it in Ontario...

Not UK English spelling - Canadian spelling. Which is a thing. For example we spell "color" as colour, but don't spell tire as "tyre" or aluminum as "aluminium". After all, we aren't complete animals. Now excuse me while I go take a nap on my chesterfield.

Just tried to help you by going to my source, Mr. Floormats in Canada, and I’m not able to configure or even find 817090 mats anymore. Tried lloydmatsstore, same thing. Maybe they stopped making them?

Clutch? Hope not but when one goes your car can have a burning rubber or plastic kind of smell.
