    Apex Wheels for CT4-V Blackwing

    Man, I'm itching for VS-5RS in 19" for my CT4. Too bad there isn't a good 200 TW tire in the sizes they recommend.

    Good condition ones go for a good bit, and they're few and far between.

    I still love the styling of the MK5 Jetta and Golf. It was such a departure from the MK4. It was so unlike anything else when it came out.

    Wanted CT4V Blackwing Wanted - 6spd

    I have heard almost VERBATIM the same comments on the G80 and G87. One selling point to me on a new car was a warranty. I have a GMC Canyon, my girlfriends X3, and the E30. All in great shape, but not without the occasional repair needed. I didn't want to add a potentially problematic (Let's be...

    Wanted CT4V Blackwing Wanted - 6spd

    Most of my F87 experience is either as a passenger, or HDPE situation, so I haven't really put in the time to give a fair evaluation. The interior layout is nice, suspension is firm and the shifter rubbery. The real gem is the handling and S55. BMW seats are hard, that's an issue I have across...

    Wanted CT4V Blackwing Wanted - 6spd

    We have similar automotive interests. I love the F87 M2, I have had an E36 M3, F30 328i M-sport, currently I have a fully restored E30 325i and I replaced my 1LE SS with a CT4-V. The CT4 is definitely fun to throw around on mountain roads and in touring suspension mode, it's very docile. You...

    Seat Belt Chime Disable

    Tail of the dragon? Good god... Flipped an NA without a rollbar.

    Seat Belt Chime Disable

    Nope. I have had to put my foot down in the past due to this. In addition to the safety, I'm not getting a ticket because of you.

    Is the data sharing completely over with?

    I have yet to log into the account via my infotainment. Idk, seems like I'd need a paid account and I don't pay for OnStar.

    Something odd

    I'd start by looking at an EGR diagram, and use that as a starting point for checking.

    Something odd

    I had to look it up. "A P1400 code is a diagnostic trouble code that indicates a problem with a vehicle's exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system" Without being familiar with the LF4 EGR system, is it possible you left a hose unplugged?

    Yeah, old lady turned left in front of me. RIP my 1LE. We both walked away, really the best thing I can hope for. I liked the Camaro, but I LOVE the CT4.

    The M54 is such a great engine as well. Fun to thrash on.

    Also, it's not surprising to find a lot of Euro fans on the CT4/5 train. GM was definitely peeking over BMW's shoulder when engineering these cars. They really are the evolution of the E39/E46 chassis. E90 was also a great car, that 4.0L V8, hnnng.

    I feel called out! HAHA. Us car guys will always complain. We are a very picky lot. I need more money and mostly garage space. Also, before I got my C5 I was looking at GTO's like the one in your avatar. I have a thing for blue.

    E36 was sold for the Camaro, fun car, but it had 185k miles on it, and always needed something despite me having gone through all the systems. I even did a full top end rebuild, cylinder head off. I would have loved a Z3M with the S52, plenty of power without the S54 price premium. I really...

    RS3 Sportback + Manual would be epic. Any Audi avant + manual would be welcomed, but probably wouldn't sell well. I still eye the Golf Allttracks that pop up on Bat with a 6MT. The new M2 doesn't do much for me, I've even seen them in person, and while they look decent in person the F87 will...
