I had a 2016 V3 which had a slighted detuned version of the Blackwing LT4. I daily drove her in Phoenix, put on ~76,000 miles without a powertrain issue. Did have small electric issues (temperature sensor, CUE screen, warped brake rotors x 2, etc) but none with the powertrain.
Seen in real life in Phoenix, and I think it looks horrible on the Tesla's. But I know the metallic flakes in the wave metallic may come out a little different, hence was hoping someone might have done it already.. lol..
I do agree it looks good on Mercedes..

Not sure if this is just lifted from the Cadillac website or an actual review?
Definitely take longer to clean. One of the reasons I chose the CCB (another was my rotors on my V2 and V3 warped here in the Phx summers). I've heard the bronze turns an ugly brown with the regular pad dust.
FWIW, I would've done black wheels again if I was doing the regular brakes.
Agree with this sentiment. I don't mind losing my deposit if necessary, but why be another 100K+ down on something you don't even like?

Many people (myself included) tend to think that due to the objectively measured "track times", and the two cars are subjectively swappable (ZL1 and 5BW). Glad to hear this isn't the case.
I can definitely attest that both objectively and subjective, the V3 and 5BW are not the same, in the...
Unfortunately, yes. HOWEVER, I was able to piecemeal mine together. I ordered without carbon to fill allocation. My dealer then ordered an OEM carbon spoiler, OEM splitter, OEM front deflectors, etc. Others on this forum got aftermarket carbon fiber kits as well (Terrence Sig, Savage...
Ahhhh, yes. Perhaps I should clarify the 18 months comment.
I placed order with dealer first week of Sept 2021, was told I got my "allocation" June 2022, received my vehicle last week of Jan 2023 (approx 17 months, but I count the entire month of Sept and Jan into it cause it hurt that bad...
