    Prior to the CT4/5, the CTS and CTS-V won 8 times. Not sure about other models, there are probably a handful. https://www.caranddriver.com/features/g15084479/cream-of-the-crop-the-winningest-cars-in-10best-history/

    Anyone Bought the CF Fenders yet? Savage Cadillac

    Do you mean they are for non-BW CT5s? Because the photo is clearly of a CT5. If it's only for non-BWs, that sucks and I'm not sure why they'd aim for that part of the CT5 market.

    Rift Being Rift

    After going to the recycling center to dispose of my Lotus's old battery (went from 36.6lbs Optima to a 3.8lb Antigravity lithium), I found myself amid decent scenery, with a clean car, during darn near golden hour, so I snapped a few pics with my 4-year-old Samsung Galaxy S10.

    At least as far as 0-60 and 1/4 mile, they're almost identical to a 2-generation-old E9x M3.

    Agreed. Also noticed their car only had $8k in options, so had to be steel brakes, and it also had a sunroof.

    Yeah, every manual car I've had has been able to do that, except my Integra had the same problem when I put big lumpy cams in it.

    Funny thing is, they're not THAT limited (1,250) and they're all more or less the same spec/color, so not really that unique? Give me a PTS GT3 manual any day.

    Heh, I know a guy who paid $150k ADM for his. But they did give him two tickets to The Quail. So... $148k ADM...

    Argh, R&T might actually get $50 out of me for an annual membership with this one. Is anyone a member and can post the article? https://www.roadandtrack.com/reviews/a45755125/cadillac-ct5-v-blackwing-vs-bmw-e39-m5/

    QQ: what's latest status on magnesium wheels?!?

    If all this is true, then these aren't actually very light. 26.4kg = 58lbs. If the tire is 28lbs then that's a 30lb front wheel? Rather heavy. I recall the standard wheels are 29lbs front and bronze is a little heavier. So the mag ones might be a tiny bit lighter than the same bronze wheel...

    Not a BW review, but it's funny how without AWD and PDK helping out, a $280k 911 performs virtually identically to a manual, RWD 5BW: https://www.caranddriver.com/reviews/a45547693/2023-porsche-911-sport-classic-test/

    Is it a toy?

    They complement each other so well. I really think I'll have these two for an indefinite amount of time, they're outstanding.

    Is it a toy?

    I mostly work from home, but mine is a daily and I am at a 9k/yr pace due to 1x/wk 80mi round-trip, school drop-offs, and weekends/errands. It's outstanding for me in that application. I do take it out for "fun" drives whenever I can, which is not often enough. My toy is a Lotus Elise, the...

    Huh, I can have text messages read to me and I can respond to them via voice w/Android Auto.

    What "don't" you like about your BW"?

    I'm so glad it has a ton of cameras because it truly is a major pain. I've even had to make a 3-point turn to turn around in a cul-de-sac!

    Have you heard a BW in the wild?

    I've always been into high-revving N/A engines (owned 9,000rpm S2000, 8,400rpm E90 M3, 8,500rpm Elise) and didn't grow up loving American V8 muscle, but the BW is so angry and has a lot of character and bravado. Best-sounded car I've owned even after modding others.

    Have you heard a BW in the wild?

    I purposely left mine in the loudest mode when I took it for the dealer oil change. It was abundantly clear when my vehicle's service began and concluded.
