Case in point: it was 38F driving over the Donner Summit just now. Gotta have tires that are safe at these temperatures. 🤷🏽‍♂️

Also WTF? They didn’t even ask if they could paint your ish?!? I’d tell em they just coated my car for free unless they want to repaint my car… and I’d be happy to get 33% off but don’t tell them that!

My thoughts on it are, if I just dropped 125k on a car in cash what’s another $5600? If it means my paint stays protected like new for the next decade then it’s money well spent IMO. Refresh is where they go over it to see where it needs to be decorated in their special ionic coating or...

Correct me if I’m wrong, which means I’m corrected a lot, but isn’t the PDR package required for the surround recoding? If it isn’t why the F did I buy a dash/rear camera?!

Kavaca is. Ceramic infused PPF, and if you get the good stuff they coat it over with some kind of top coat to boot. It’s pricey, and they only allow certain shops to sell it, and then there’s some shops that are considered elite that have done extensive training and only sell Kavaca. It takes...

Was planning the first oil change at around 700 and another at 1500… I thought that’s what I read in the manual, but I’ll have to double check. Good to know not everyone is having the oil consumption issue. 🤙🏽

So glad to hear it man. I saw lots of reviews saying the same, but it just hits harder coming from someone in a BW after 4. Thanks! Do you also get a refresh every so often? I think the owner said he recommends at least every other year or something for $100. I figure since I want this as my...

4sho man. I get it. They’re hella fun to drive, but I will never buy a car with turbos again in my life. Maybe you can get a sweet upgrade to the 5! I only drove mine briefly before dropping it off to get wrapped, but it felt like turbos but better IMO. 🤷🏽‍♂️🤞🏽

Reading about all this stuff makes me glad I spent the extra grand to make it 10/100k bumper to bumper! (Though hopefully the ‘25 CT5BWs don’t run into the same issues! 🤞🏽)

Well shit… I guess I better pick some up before I pick my baby up from from getting the Kavaca wrap. That gives me a few days. Everyone going with the Mobil 1 as directed by the manual or what?

Gawdam man… I’m so sorry you’re going through this. You must be ready to chew nails at this point. I’ve never had good experiences with any car I owned that had turbos. Both my Merc Capri, and Eagle Talon had really frustrating issues. Hope it all works out for you in the end my dude.

Good call. Bro, my dealership’s salesmen honestly aren’t well versed in the Blackwing. I knew more about it than them. I mean it’s not like I’ve been obsessed with the BW since 2021, checked every day for the last year to see if a car with my specific options was available, and read/watched...

Changing up the tire specs doesn’t throw shit off on the car’s computers? I don’t want to mess with anything that could give Caddy a reason to void the warranty.

That’s a pretty good rundown right there. I find Metallica’s black album to be pretty good as a tuning fork. I’ve had aftermarket subs in every car I’ve ever owned, but don’t plan on putting anything in the BW. Granted, I only drove it for 40 minutes after taking it off the lot before dropping...

Why would I see you relating your personal experience as you being a jerk my brother? Yer good. Maybe they’ve changed something up as almost all of the reviews I read about the Invo said they were great… though I doubt many of those folks are ripping 659 torque. What really sucks is that there...

Driving home last night through SF after date night with the wifey… saw a matte black BW (couldn’t tell if it was a 4 or 5 cuz of the dark) semi-double parked in kind of the Tenderloin part of the city. Pretty sure dude was showin it to the homies. There was a crew kickin it there, and it damn...

Damn… this is something I have to look forward to? I’d hope that a new car wouldn’t burn through oil after the break in period unless running hard on a track.

Were those the Invos by chance? Figure I’ll only be able to run Summer tires for a few months out of the year which is why I wanted a tire that’s safe under 40F. September through April (some years through May too) I’ll need tires safe at cold temps.

Damn man! Somebody had their car jacked by the po!?!? That’s cold… imagine being pulled over by your old C8 in the bucket you were forced to buy cuz the car was seized!

Anybody ever run on Nitto tires? Reviews say there ultra quiet and stick like glue. Just curious if anyone here has real world experience.
