    anyone have a Z06 and BW? or trade to a Z06?

    Yes I’ve been reading about all those things. Found a used one with CF wheels but having to hunt down a place that’ll change tires on them seems a problem. I agree that I don’t need the CF body aero package. Or the ceramic brakes. The Z07 package might be a bit much too. Do need the front end...

    anyone have a Z06 and BW? or trade to a Z06?

    I’ve only got one parking space, so if I pull the trigger it’ll have to be my only one. But most of the time I drive for fun unless it’s to the dentist or doctor. I have my eyes on a used one that has the CF wheels and carbon brakes, but it seems that most places will not mount tires on CF...

    anyone have a Z06 and BW? or trade to a Z06?

    I’m tall with tall torso, so it’s hard for me to fit in some cars. I went to dealer and sat in the HTC and after 15 minutes of seat fiddling was able to make it work. That’s cross plane crank engine sounds so good.

    anyone have a Z06 and BW? or trade to a Z06?

    Think I might get a Z06, been looking and great deals out there right now with prices lower than MSRP. Good selection too before the 26 refresh. Thinking carbon fiber wing package and front end lift, looked into the Z07 package but don't want the Cup2s on the street. A few I've found have the...

    Buying a pre-owned high MSRP 2024 CT5VBW or a new 2025 model?

    It transfers and the car should be CPO which gives you an extra two years I think. If you buy at the dealer. I’d get the 24 due to the carbon packages and the CCB.

    Dealer Couldn't Set Up Track Alignment?

    So the pin gets punched out, what's next? Is the camber adjusted how? some sort of bolt or nut to adjust? Loosen the three nuts/bolts and move the strut inward till you get what you want then re-tighten them?

    Dealer Couldn't Set Up Track Alignment?

    Well I looked and you can see on top of the shock tower, two divots in the cap that look like they can be drilled out for something, plus a metal plug of sorts poking up through a divot that’s drilled out.

    What did you trade?

    Same with a 911. Once it’s out of warranty and something big goes out, well bend over. Engine, PDK, AC, turbos, front radiators, info system and more. Now with the hybrid S ….geez it’s a complicated drivetrain. It’ll be huge to maintain with the turbo motor and the electric drive motor. All...

    CT5-V CT5V BW Burning 4qtz/Thousand miles

    By 2019, lots of 350s were turning into diesels. Ford replaced them and kept the bad engine. They never made a public announcement as to why it was happening. But many suspect it was due to bad rings. They also did a compression test, leak down and bore scope of my bad motor. Ford lost their...

    CT5-V CT5V BW Burning 4qtz/Thousand miles

    It happens. I night a brand new GT350 and at 6K miles needed a new engine due to oil consumption. At the end it was burning a quart every 200 miles. Ford made me do two 500 drive tests. But I got a new long block and it never really burned any oil.

    CT5-V HORRIBLE experience with Bayway Cadillac SW

    True but the TL was manual AWD, I should have been more clear. The Type S is FWD. I mean manual and or RWD and AWD

    CT5-V 2025 CT5 Blackwings - have your dealer check oil plug on the front of the engine (Service Bulletin attached)

    Better get it fixed and flatbed to the dealer. I would not drive it.

    CT5-V HORRIBLE experience with Bayway Cadillac SW

    Those are nice. Too bad Acura won’t make any manual cars anymore. One of the rarest cars is the previous TL with 6 cylinder and six speed manual. I think they only made about 1000 of them in total. Both Acura and Audi have dropped the ball on this, going with tech tech tech instead of the actual...

    CT5-V HORRIBLE experience with Bayway Cadillac SW

    Yes, I’ve been through that and it’s the financial person that always tries to get the add ons. I bought my 4 BW last November and as I was signing the papers the cutesy 30 something woman in a short skirt tried her charms to get me to buy extended warranty, wheel and tire protection, paint less...

    Engine Failure

    True, now even in the 992 GT3 and GT3RS.....there is an issue of the small steel puck, that sets the valve clearance, that sits on top of the vale stem popping off...getting into the oil system and grenading the engine. On the 991 GT3 and RS, the DLC coating coming off the cams and also...

    2025 Surround Vision Recorder switched to USB?

    It's really weird to see the little man icon of a pedestrian on your display screen. First time mine did it I was what?? then I saw some nimrod jump right out in front of me to cross the street. So, it works, but once it thought a fire hydrant was a pedestrian too.

    Be neat to use a 3d metal printer and make them.

    So, a manufacturer will not self-report to fix this.......consumers can go to this site ad file a complaint....but given the cuts to agencies under Trump, who knows if it'll be processed...that's NOT being political, just a fact. https://www.nhtsa.gov/report-a-safety-problem#index A few years...

    CT5-V Ikon anti-theft

    you have a MT........that IS an anti-theft device. Yank that spy thing out of there like right now, and get your money back. Who knows what this third company does with the data, possibly selling it to Lexus Nexus or some other data grabber. We went through this with GM when they were doing it.
