"I was just rolling through town at 6mph as a participant in a local float parade , when suddenly..."

Did the Spring Mountain thing this past weekend and it was awesome. Didn't set the track on fire (I think my best time was a 1:26 or something) but had a great time and met some cool Blackwing folks. Definitely gave me the bug for wanting to take my car to the track. When I hopped in the car to...

Excellent bit of trivia right there. I remembered that about the tires on the GXP, but not the other two

This is the correct answer. In my experience, the only ventilated seats I ever experienced which I felt were actually good were in a Ford Mustang I rented once. I've experienced vented seats in my 4BW, my wife's old Kia, my boss's Audi and a couple others and they were all lackluster.

Who leaked my plans??

Yeah, I guess I could call it that. It just sounds like... ticking, in tune with the engine when going lower speeds. At highway speeds, it either stops doing it or I can't hear it.

Tbh I can't really hear anything. Mine sounds like a fast ticking, which ticks faster with the engine speed, but then goes away temporarily when I put in the throttle and the revs fall.

Yes I have this same sound and I find it extremely annoying. Note that I didn't have it when I got the car, but it was also the middle of summer, so temperature might have something to do with it. I've meant to complain to a service department about this and see if there's anything they can do...

I think the Blackwings, along with the regular CT4's and CT5's, are going to run their 4-ish year cycle and be gone, which is pretty much what everyone expected from the start.

Will echo some other comments here, have a rear facing seat in the back of a 4BW (Chicco, excellent brand), and it works just fine. The 5 has acres of space in comparison. As for seats themselves, we had a Graco ClickConnect with a couple of bases for the infant seat and they were great. Really...

Lol "FakeTaxy" I swear these list are never not funny

I'd buy like 50 janky miatas and make my own idiot racing series.

Respectfully disagree. The reason people are saying it's going to be a collectible is that we know with almost absolute certainty that the V8, manual rear wheel drive sedan will die with this car. Yes there's demand and they'll make a good handful of cars, but not so much demand because the cars...

So this thread has me wondering if the Snow mode is really for snowy roads or actually for snowy tracks...

I have them on my car, 255 in front and 285 in back (no 275's were around at the time of buying). I really like them. They lose a tiny bit of steering sharpness, but make up for it with a tiny bit of noise reduction and ride quality improvement. They also lose that skittish feeling the PS4S's...

Figured I'd supply an update on my "winter" setup as well, Michelin Pilot Sport AS4, 255/35/18 in front, 285/35/18 on back (which fit perfectly). Very happy with the setup, still only feel like I'm giving up a tiny bit of steering sharpness from the PS4S's, but slightly better/quieter ride and...

No I'm not taking it in til 12/6 since they didn't have a loaner available until then and I figured I'd couple it with an oil change

Mine came without a roof but I thought it was just the Laundaulet edition...

This doesn't really bother me but it is noticeable and after owning many cars that never had this issue I have to wonder "why?"

Update: This noise is really pissing me off so I'm taking it to the dealer to get looked at. Fully anticipating a run-around. Smh
