Hense, the goat rodeo

Not to throw stones, but IIRC, you really need to be at 3300 (scheduled for production) for anything to matter. 2000 is accepted by GM, better than 1100. I'm not aware of 2050, unless you mean 2051? That's just a change to the order itself via the web (2030 is a change to the order). Pretty much...

So many great comments and opinions here that are dead on and I think most are very accurate. The only thing I would add regarding low miles (mine's a 2022 with ~7500 miles) is I think many are like Corvettes. They don't go out much, people bought one as a fair well to the V8, weekend car...

I really liked my 4. It was very good in the canyons, but to me, it felt a little under powered...for 472 hp, and not much exhaust noise. I LOVE my 5. Yes, illegal speeds in fractions of a second, BUT, the exhaust, the power! Much better cruiser on the highway and in the canyons, it kicks ass...

NOOOOOOOoooooooo! I will admit, 8 series BMW's are very cool. I drove a M850xi and loved it. Can't imagine a M8! Congrats!

......And another thing, GM is a little confusing itself. They release allocations kind of willy nilly too. When I was dealing with my dealer, they didn't really know if or when they would get an allocation. I'm going back to 2022-2023, so things might be a little different now. When I ordered...

IDK, I very much trust the car. I think that trust has saved my ass a few times. Take a curve a little to fast, or accelerate out a bit too early, not realize how sharp the curve is, and I've felt those nannies kick in. Granted, smooth asphalt, but I trust it. You'll just have to get used to...

That's where my dealer said they fill up my turbo blinker fluid. Man, that crap is expensive!

Ahhhh, one of the beauties of living out here in Southern AZ with looong, mostly flat, straight back roads where you can drive without much concern about the law....or so I hear

I agree 100%. I was in California last month for a week doing part of PCH. Stayed in many hotels, I should have paid more attention, but I don't recall ANY chargers at any of those hotels. It really made me stop and think, how do we go full EV? As you said, what about all the MDU's. Who's going...

IIRC, once the XT's are killed off, the only ICE left will be the CT's and the Escalade. They will keep the ICE Escalade as their sales are very strong, and it's no big deal to produce it next to the Tahoe/Yukon. So, what's the future for the CT? I read they are working on an EV version, so I...

Radiant Red or it's almost twin, Infrared

Powertrain is 6 yr/70K miles, but at least with an extended warranty, it "should" cover almost everything, but especially electronics. I think that's really the bigger issue long term with new cars.

Congrats @SdBeerManDave ..........pix?

@swoop1156 ....great write and excellent thoughts. I think you were lucky to enjoy that BMW for 24 hours. Many journalists talk about how good BMW is, but the cars are boring. My favorite part: So true....all of it, especially about parking lots. I've said for years, your driving test should...

With a due respect and a little sarcasm, really? The chief complaints are gas tank size and turning radius? Are we men or are we mice? It's probably one of the best cars to come out of Detroit. That's the complaint? That actually says something. No one complaining about expensive maintenance or...

Where have you been @Tall Steve ? When are you selling that BW to me for pennies on the dollar.....I have cash!

@DBordello ..I don't think they are taking orders for 2025's anymore

@DonD ...No, it's an option to buy the battery charger from GM, at an attractive mark up.

I think that is a big part of it. The mirrors a so small. I can bob and weave in my truck with more confidence than the BW, partially because of the big mirrors. A lot has to do with how other people drive too.
