Sounds similar to the Ford Performance GT350 Track Attack that original GT350 owners are given (I did pay $225 to make sure I wasn't going to have to buy the whole car if something went wrong). There they also covered heel/toe downshifts and went through the different mode settings. Also...

So far, a bit over 500 miles mostly driving back from Phoenix late at night and between detailers in AZ and CA. Only sticky issue so far is the car failed the smog test this week when trying to register in CA due to the O2 sensor system not being ready. I would have thought 500 miles would be...

My older CTS-V is closer to the wheel (no finger stretching) so I noticed this too and causes me to keep checking that the high-beams aren't on by trying to pull it back. I find I have to use the signals more often in traffic with this car since there always seems to be somebody shadowing me...

It could have been much worse. The first generation CTS-Vs had 6 lug wheels (probably a similar predicament for Vipers). It was an order of magnitude in difficulty for people to find aftermarket rims with a car with a truck bolt pattern. Eventually, a couple wheel options were developed and...

I think it can be removed without leaving any residual marks. I still don't know what the story is behind it. I'm leaning toward the idea it was noting a defect or that it was modified somehow after a problem was discovered and that was the note. The car was at 3800 for an extended time...

The dealer says that no one there would add a signature like that but I don't recall anybody else mentioning a signature on the seat back from the factory. It looks like some name(Alteratio?) followed by "of Se" as if they were trying to write "Service" maybe. Or maybe it's flagging a defect...

Finally got the car back from the local CeramicPro detailer who also removed the tinting the dealer quickly applied and added something legal for CA. I had Suntek PPF put on the front buy a guy working out of his 2 car garage prior to driving it back from Phoenix to the LA area. It was...

I'm praying that this can gain momentum in time to save the ICE. It would make existing non-EV cars at least "carbon-neutral" and deflate the argument that all vehicles must be EV. Carbon Engineering - Taking CO2 Right Out Of The Air To Make Gasoline

Should I be seeing a signature on the carbon fiber seat back too? I don’t have a photo at the moment as the car is getting it’s coating applied but I don’t recall anyone else mentioning it.

It was shipped through Accelerated Services so it could be that they applied the protective film. Not sure.

Finally got to the dealer.

As I recall, in CA it's treated like a rebate so it's subtracted after the total amount including taxes.

That paint robot should be demoted to applying the silicon to the windshields.

The JC page for my car (built 8/18) still shows "pending" but from my dealer on 9/4: "No update on shipping yet but it looks like they are shipping the vehicles outside of General Motors normal shipping lanes (trains etc). We just had a CT4 Blackwing show up today that only showed shipped on...

Wouldn’t the transport company’s insurance cover the dealer’s cost? I can’t imagine carrying half a million dollars worth of vehicles without insurance.

The cracking on the rotor surface is crazy. I've never noticed that before.

I'm not sure the best route but here are some numbers. GM (313) 556-5000 GM Regional Representatives 1-800-248-0765 I think you have to get the representative name for that dealer maybe from the dealer themselves. I believe the field representative will want to meet you at the dealer. You...

My choice was either to return the car and wait for the next model year or have them do the repair again to match the color better. I preferred that year over the next model year but they were hard to find (even that dealer was 500 miles from home). I was also getting GM employee pricing...

I don't have the car yet but the manual doesn't mention breadcrumbs or "back track" so that's another feature that's been dropped. My 2005 CTS-V even had it but I don't see many references beyond 2016 for GM products anymore. That car also kept track of the maximum lateral Gs the car...
