He's a car person, so it's not too surprising that he had a V. He's also the original owner of a 4-speed '67 Corvette convertible.

I feel like if you weren't going to get a C8 because it doesn't have a clutch pedal and H-pattern shifter, you would look at used C7s before new/used BWs. They are pretty different cars.

Good guess! :ROFLMAO:

Except that mine is an A10 so got the Driver Assist Package, our cars are pretty close in configuration. I'm not bothered by that value, my plan is to keep mine for a very long time.

Two more to our home, bringing the total to eight. Siblings Garfield and Nermal. Guess who is who!

One of our cats sympathizes with you. He had to have surgery to fix a luxating patella in both knees. One knee was Grade II, the other Grade III. He was about one year old when symptoms started. It was a $$$ operation, followed by nine weeks of cage restriction. He's now almost seven years old.

Due to my vestibular issues, I don't switch cars often as it takes me a long time to adjust. My first car purchase was a used '92 Mercury Topaz. I drove it for four years but have no pictures of it. Second purchase was trading in the Topaz for a new '00 Nissan Sentra SE, added Nismo suspension...

My original target was a non-Blackwing CT5-V and my main comparison was a TLX Type S. I couldn't get an allocation for the 5V, found a 4BW matching my desired color combination and some of the considerations pushing me to the 5V changed. So, I paid the extra money to move up the performance class.

Add me to the Corvette + Cadillac membership group.

Yep, it was you. I was westbound, heading home from family in Bridgeport.

I think I passed you on I-70 around 4 PM. The yellow caught my attention! I was not in my 4BW. :(

IMO, the PDR camera is too high to be useful as a parking aid.

This is another one of those things where, even before you get to the should it be done conversation, you have to figure out if it can be done. And based on my personal experience, it cannot be reliabily done. It requires either active GPS to geolocate the car along with a map having current...

Probably those cars are fully loaded by default due to being a special edition production, so the actual price gap due to the special edition specific features are not the total price difference from base MSRP. And those special edition cars might be the only reliable way to get certain options...

Now I know who to blame for this weekend's weather!

You don't have to get CF1 to get the upgraded steering wheel. On the VIN plate, the first number indicates CT4 or CT5, the second number is the transmission.

I got you beat, mine was $82K. 🤪 I didn't really want a 4BW, let alone a 5BW, but couldn't secure a non-Blackwing 5V, needed a car and in-stock pickings were slim when I got mine. I never seriously considered a 5BW, because I didn't need the bigger car, the bigger engine (I also have a C7...

One of the fuel economy related pages (right side I believe) will give an indicator of V4 or V8, showing if AFM is engaged or not. At least on my A8 C7 Z06, that indicator is really the only way I can tell it's activated.

Have you M6 5BW owners tried driving in snow/ice mode and seeing if AFM activates?

At least on the M7 C7 Z06s, the LT4 AFM would only engage in Eco mode. In the other drive modes it would not engage. Also, the A8 cars won't engage AFM if in manual shifter mode. I don't know how the 5BW functions, but my guess is it would behave similarly. The LF4 doesn't have AFM nor auto...
