I just replaced mine for the first time in my 2023 4BW with nearly 30,000 miles on it. I don’t do anything exotic with my keys when not driving. This seems like a normal battery interval to me. Replacing them 12 times, like another poster noted, is NOT normal.

Put on the smoked amber side markers. Really happy with the result, especially on a black raven car.

I had both of my tail lights replaced under warranty for condensation. I haven’t noticed it since, thankfully.

Got some Blackwing badges that are as good as OEM from Amazon and put them on the sides under the V’s like the new cars. Now my 2023 looks “modern”!

That looks totally badass.

Yes, since when is there a level 2 class?

It will also get better with more miles. My 4BW was very notchy into 2nd when I bought it new, and now that it’s got 26k miles on it, it’s much better. Not perfect, mind you, but worlds better.

9 miles when I test drove it. They weren’t going to let me drive it, but I assured them that I would never buy a car I haven’t driven, and I’d find another dealership. In retrospect, I should have given the paint issues that I discovered later…

Had to look that up. Never heard that word before in my life.

I don’t think it’s going to require a new door — I am hopeful anyway

Anyone have experience with a good body shop around the Houston area? Some jackass backed into my driver’s side door the other night while I was parked at a friend’s house. Multiple dents in the door, including one that’s gouged down to bare metal. They just left the scene, and it was too...

Same, that’s why i put the carpeted ones back in. Especially if you wear dress shoes a lot.

Same

That looks awesome! How do you deal with the shift cap? i was never clear on how it is attached to the shift knob.
