Somewhat related: I have a 6MT in my 4BW but booked an auto for my upcoming (June) Spring Mountain trip just so I could experience it. The 4 vs 5 swap sounds interesting. I'll definitely see whether anyone in my group is interested. Thanks for the suggestion.

I got my first oil change at Sewell-Houston this morning, and was surprised to find three new 4BWs on the lot. All with manuals. I waited 8 months for my car. Now 3 months after I picked it up they have multiple cars on the lot that someone could just drive off with today. One was a...

Grats! Guys are hardwiring radar detectors into the power that goes to the rearview mirror. You could maybe check out one of those threads in the Blackwing General Discussion forum.

Grats! I happened to be at my dealer today getting my first oil change. I saw three brand new 4BWs on the lot - all with manuals. One appeared identical to my car except for the caliper color. I waited eight months for my car. Three months later they have multiple that people can just walk...

Nope. None other than Mirza has opined: "Its just paint, and you can repaint" Source: a voice of reason As a reminder, Mirza has an all-black fleet: 4BW, Camaro, Corvette. Source: pics Of Mirza's fleet

Welcome! At least a couple of us, including me, test drove non-Blackwing CT4-Vs to get a feel for the car. I was able to get a feel for the manual - and the top tier seats - by sitting in a pre-owned 5BW in a showroom - though that was after I had ordered my car. (Mid-tier 5BW seats are...

Damn. Mine is SA2000 and I thought it was old. Where's a good place to go helmet-shopping in the Houston area these days? I need to buy in person so I can check fitment. Pretty sure I got my current helmet at ProAm on Richmond back in the day, but don't see any helmets on their website...

Blackwings are built on the same platform in the same factory - but in far fewer numbers. I don't see how the Blackwings survive this.

Can you bring your own brain bucket, or do they require the use of their helmets?

Appreciate all you do with this stuff. Cool to see my '23 4BW in there. Bug: When I use the Search feature against 4BWs, the results grid shows nothing in the Serial column, and the Serial value is the Model Year column.

I can take my car past its limits without leaving my driveway. I did about a dozen track days back in 2004 thru 2007. Offhand I can recall two wrecks at events I attended, one of which involved a car ending up on its roof. I also recall two off-track excursions that I am not calling...

I have the horn issue as well. I might bring it into the dealer next week.

I did the same. While waiting for my car I got to sit in a pre-owned 5BW that had the exact same seats as my 4BW was going to have. Feeling the seats and feeling the godly shifter affirmed that I was making the correct choice. My dealer, Sewell, also required no deposit and no requirement to...

The driving and exit seat position functions are enabled under Settings -> Vehicle -> Seating. The positions are set using the buttons on the door. There is a Set button, and buttons for 1, 2 and a 3rd button with a car icon with an open door. 1 and 2 correspond to the 2 key fobs. The 3rd...

I traded my car in to the dealer when I got a TPW. I didn't get actually get the car until a little over 5 months later. I got my tax credit. Their process was that they mailed me a check for the trade-in amount, I desposited it, and then 5 months later I paid it back to them when picking...

Interesting topic. On my 4BW I have settled on Sport for daily driving. I prefer the effort in Track, but the feedback feels like a video game controller. When I do Spring Mountain in June I'll experiment to see whether the Track setting is preferable on an actual Track. The My Mode...

Inexpensive phone. Motorola Moto G7. About $250 when I bought it 3 years ago. After having two successive $600 Samsung phones each last about 3 years before dying, I went with an inexpensive Motorola. This is the first time in 3 years I have found it missing any features I might want. A...

This is the first vehicle I have had with Android Auto, so have no background with it. My phone won't do it wirelessly, which is a disincentive to experiment with it. My main music source is a USB thumb drive. The factory head unit does everything I need - though it does none of it...

The icon on the nav system that shows my position. It's a way-too-big circle with an arrow on it. But your position is not centered on the arrow, it is centered somewhere in the circle thing. So you when zoom out far enough, the arrow is pointing past where you actually are. It is just...

Already have a '23 and am thinking about replacing it with a '24! I accepted a dealer spec order to get my car sooner. (This spec order was at 3000 at the time when manuals were on constraint, and my faith wavered.) Same exterior color I wanted, Rift, but different interior: Black rather...
