He's back! As I think I mentioned earlier in the thread, I had a Lyric loaner for a few weeks when my BW was in for service and waiting for parts. I really liked it for what it was, i.e. a large, comfortable SUV. I took my family on a small road trip in it and it was great on the highway, super...

The video compares sounds in Tour and V-Mode, but V-mode isn't an exhaust setting. To my ears the AWE exhaust sounds good in the drive-by portion, but idle straight up sounds like a fart...way worse than stock. Build quality looks impressive as always for AWE products...I had an AWE exhaust on...

That is Wave. That specific car (#17 at Spring Mountain) has already been posted in this thread twice! First by Mirza, and next by bloominguez. 👍 I also found it in the background of some of my SM photos as well.

In my opinion, this is the perfect Blackwing: 5BW, Wave/Bronze/Sky Cool Grey/Carbon. If you tell me it is also a manual with carbon ceramic brakes, you may need to up the security on your garage.

In case anyone was wondering what Wave Blue and Coastal Blue look like next to each other, let me show you my driveway: Wife got a new Honda Prologue, which is made by GM, right down to the colors. My verdict is that Coastal Blue is a fine color, but Wave still looks best on a Blackwing.

So that would make Brandon Graham the Porsche Panamera Turbo S?

Cry-stall strikes again!

Now this is the best idea yet. A beater Blackwing!

A few ideas: Bronco manual WRX Audi B6 S4 manual Find an older X3, X5, or Cayenne with a manual (rare, but they do exist) Man up and get snow tires for the BW

I have two pairs of Pilotis and I really like them. I wore them at Spring Mountain and they were great.

By all accounts the Lucid is a fantastic sports sedan, but I will never buy another car without Apple Carplay. We don't have it in my wife's Tesla and it is infuriating.

It's actually 40 and 20 degrees, but obviously if you live in a climate that sees winter you get winter-capable tires. It's not an excuse not to drive the car.

Your car has heat and heated seats, right? How is it too cold to drive?

You need different polarized glasses. They are great for driving, and cut glare way better than non-polarized. Try Costa or Maui Jim.

Yes, my noise was coming from the valves themselves at the rear of the car. It was hard to hear with the windows up, but very obvious from outside the car or with the windows down in a parking garage.

You sound like someone who needs to get to Spring Mountain! If you use your car for any type of motorsports the PDR is super useful. You can also use it to record "laps" on your favorite back road section or cloverleaf. The PDR records a LOT more data than just the video you can watch back in...

You're only a moron if you don't end up going to Spring Mountain.

It's funny, before I got my BW I thought I wanted the HUD too, and was looking forward to it. Now even though I have it on all the time, I hardly ever look at it. It is also barely visible in the daytime with polarized sunglasses.

15 degrees on the stock Michelins, eh? Here is what Tire Rack (and your owner's manual) says about that: "Note: Tires exposed to temperatures of 20 degrees F (-7 degrees C) or lower must be permitted to gradually return to temperatures of at least 40 degrees F (5 degrees C) for at least 24...
