    Order bank open date 2025 CT5V BW?

    My 5BW has been in "produced" status for the last two weeks, has been issued a VIN, but is being held at factory due to a missing component with no delivery ETA. My dealer says they cannot determine what that component may be or when to expect the release. Sound about right for the Goat...

    CT5-V Manual 25 Blackwing no blindspot monitoring. Why

    The things you listed are not asterisked in that list, which means that they come on manual, too. But if you don't have adaptive cruise, then that calls into question the accuracy of that list, regardless.

    CT5-V Manual 25 Blackwing no blindspot monitoring. Why

    All the items with asterisks are not available on manual, all other features according to that list are available on manual. So do you have adaptive cruise?

    CT5-V Manual 25 Blackwing no blindspot monitoring. Why

    Not sure steering assist is the same thing as just the monitoring? "Steering assist" suggests that the car will intervene automatically and steer back into your lane if it senses a car in the blind spot, like automatic braking when it senses a collision. Are we 100% sure there isn't a buried...

    CT4-V CT4 V blackwing vs RS3 6 months later

    Another car I wished I had kept, mine was a '93 black with a tan interior. Loved the hell out of it, especially that motor. I remember my first time driving a VR6 and swore I had to have one in a Corrado and scored a low mileage used one a few months later. Tried to relive my youth and buy a...

    CT4-V CT4 V blackwing vs RS3 6 months later

    Not anymore after this year. But there’s still the GLI in MT.

    CT4-V CT4 V blackwing vs RS3 6 months later

    That surprised me too, so I just fully loaded one in the Audi US configurator and came up with around $163k before transport and taxes. Base price on an RS6 is now $127k. That’s about what I paid for mine nicely optioned back in 2022. But now the RS6 is called the RS6 Performance and comes...

    CT4-V CT4 V blackwing vs RS3 6 months later

    I had a similarly modded MT B5 S4 Avant back in the day and absolutely loved it. Used to run it in Driver Education events with the Porsche Club and blow by them in the straights, with a Baby on Board sign in the back window just to piss them off (and it did!). Have had a bunch of high...

    CT4-V CT4 V blackwing vs RS3 6 months later

    I second that opinion, having owned an RS6 for the last few years. Came from an AMG E63S wagon. The RS6 is soft and boring by comparison, despite the "specs". Very comfortable daily driver, and long distance cruiser, but... boring. The appearance though, that's where I never get tired...

    CT5-V Max tire size (diameter, width) you can put on stock 5BW suspension w/no rubbing?

    Never mind. I just saw the post where the 325 Michelins are actually wider than the 335 Contis.

    CT5-V Max tire size (diameter, width) you can put on stock 5BW suspension w/no rubbing?

    So you’re saying that things are real tight in the rear wheel wells with the 335s, to the point where you’re uncomfortable with clearances? I’m starting to tee up my wheels and tires in anticipation of an early Feb delivery. I’ve always been a Michelin fan, but wide 335 rear meats are tough...

    20” wheel/tire specs for 5BW?

    Very sweet. How is ride quality with those springs? Looks to be over an inch of lowering?

    20” wheel/tire specs for 5BW?

    Cool. Any photos of your car? Owner wheel and suspension mods seem to be rare on this car for some reason. Not a lot of photos out there!

    20” wheel/tire specs for 5BW?

    Nice. Are you at stock ride height? I am thinking of a slight lowering. Any rubbing?

    In a dilemma… Help.

    I understand that when just using pdr. Well, I guess I wasted $1600. Didn’t even know about SVR. I assume that is a standard feature on a 5BW?

    In a dilemma… Help.

    I think this thread suggests otherwise? https://www.cadillacvnet.com/forums/threads/is-pdr-a-option.4026/

    In a dilemma… Help.

    Correct me if I’m wrong, but the PDR can also act as a 360 dash cam? That’s why I optioned it on my 25, I have no intentions of tracking, but after installing integrated dash cams on prior vehicles, I’ll gladly pay $1600 not to do that again, and to have it fully invisible.

    Make Blackwing Great Again

    lol, embarrassing for me. I am so fixated on a 5BW in Drift that I didn’t notice it was a 4BW.

    Make Blackwing Great Again

    Rare beast being a 2025 in Drift with CF (can't tell if that CF1 or 2). What's your full spec? Are the 2025 BW side badges coming on the doors now? I think I missed seeing that before.
