Sounds like a 2026 model with blind spot monitoring in your preferred color is in your future. Congrats on sticking to your guns and for sharing your story. Other people need to be warned about dealerships that behave this way so they can avoid them.
Thanks for sharing the link to the 2026 order guide. Changes from 2025 to 2026 seem to be:
- parking package now standard
- performance data reorder standard
- blind zone steering assist on 6MT cars
I could not see anything else different including the colors (exterior and interior) all being...

Can anyone who took delivery of a Precision Package car confirm the following from the original press release?
“a second set of rear toe-control links are provided—they come in the trunk, and are about 0.1 inch longer“
I sold my GT350 to make way for a 5BW. The GT350 is not nearly as much power as the GT500 but it offers a similar experience compared to a 5BW. I have not taken delivery of it yet so I cannot say if there will be any regrets. I certainly understand giving up a car with a very visceral...

CCB should be less prone to heat soak than steel rotors. Certainly should not generate enough heat on a mountain run to boil the brake fluid. Unless a pad is dragging on the rotor or the stock fluid is really bad. But I have not heard that before even from people who track it. I would think you...
Thanks for the useful post. Glad to hear the Blackwing CCB rotors seem to hold up better than Vette. I may just do a couple of track days and see how they look
Did you get Alcon to make steel rotors for the CT5 or for a different car?
Cost is the main factor. Much cheaper to replace metal than carbon ceramic. Plus, I can easily determine if a metal rotor is at the end of its life by measuring the thickness. Carbon rotors need to be removed and weighed.
The extra weight of the metal rotors is only a minor concern. I don’t...
Now that the CCB is a requirement for the Precision Package, the only way to get both the Precision Package and inexpensive rotors (relative to carbon ceramic) is to go aftermarket. I have been emailing GiroDisc regarding creation of steel rotors for our CCB setup. They are willing to make us...
Chat will not give you the VIN (bot or a person makes no difference). You need to contact your dealer.
Also, I want to confirm if this is a thread about the precision package. I thought it was at some point.
Make sure it has not been sold previously as it could be a buy back (laws differ on disclosure from state to state). Also, check the miles. Could have been driven by the dealership owner as a loaner without having been sold.
Most likely scenario is they have had a huge markup on it thinking...
