Wow that was quick. What dealer did you place an order with? I placed my order with a dealer 2 months ago and it has not been accepted by GM yet.

Are the base seats in the CT4V not leather? I thought they were.

How do you like them? How do they perform on track? Do you wish you had the upgraded seats? Anyone who has had both that can comment on the differences I would appreciate your feedback. I’m shopping for a 4 BW and found one I like but it has the base seats. This car will primarily be a DD but I...

I went with the Michelin Alpin PA4, 265/35/18 in the rear and 255/35/18 up front. I’ve used these tires in the past on my Focus RS and CLA 45 AMG and they are a fantastic winter performance tire and also do well in the snow (on those platforms). I ordered through fitment industries, the rears...

I received confirmation the dealer does NOT have an allocation, but I am first on the list. I don’t want to thread jack, is there another thread on orders and allocations? I’m curious if there is any more info out there on how/when dealers get allocations. They have sold a 4 BW recently. My...

Do you have first hand experience with this in your line of work? I’m genuinely curious, I’m not in the industry but I have been pretty active in various car forums over the years. While I have personally only tuned one of my vehicles, I have read a lot of information across various platforms...

My understanding is the fact that a vehicle is tuned does not automatically void the warranty. The manufacturer has to prove that the tune (or modification) caused the part in question to fail to deny the warranty coverage. Also each platform is very different with respect to built in...

I love driving barefoot, do it all the time in the Miata, but I have to set my flip flops on the ground outside to get back in them.

I’m newer to this platform and am making an assumption here but you seem to be concerned about failing emissions. I think just a tune will yield big increases and I can’t imagine that would cause you to fail emissions. In Illinois all they do is hook a sensor up to your tailpipe at idle and it’s...

Thanks for this, I went to that link which redirected me to cadillac.com where I initiated a chat and was able to check. They advised that the dealer has submitted the order but it has not been officially accepted by GM. I will check back with the dealer to ensure they have an allocation. I...

Im not sure if there is a list. I specifically asked that question and was sent a build sheet with my build number. They also took my $1,000 deposit so I assume they have placed the order.

I ordered from Patrick Cadillac in Schaumburg, I have been working with Erin she has been great so far. I talked to the Cadillac in Naperville and they did not have any allocations. I also talked to Heritage and they said they could order me one but only seemed interested in selling me something...

Earlier this year, I upgraded my Focus RS to a 2022 CLA 45 AMG. I loved the RS, but wanted something a bit more comfortable and grown up, that also needed to be able to haul two kids around. I knew I wanted to get back into a sedan and out of the hatchback. When I was ready to upgrade the RS...

Agree it is a good deal. I have been shopping around in the Midwest and the best deals I was coming across on new 2023's was $4K off MSRP. Those were primarily autos at the time and not the M6.

Thanks. I do plan on looking at new inventory while I wait to get some more confirmation on my new build and see how that progresses. I hadn’t realized about the tax savings and buying private party. Unfortunately there have not been many local used Blackwings, but I have been searching. Most...

If something is not a constraint, what is the typical lead time for a custom build? I was quoted at 3-6 months and specifically asked about the UAW strikes and was told the 3-6 months is reliable. I did not order any carbon bits. CT4-V Blackwing Manual in Black Raven with sunroof and tan...

I have been shopping around for a 4 BW manual. I’ve seen $4K off MSRP on the 2023s (did not get as far as negotiating more on those). I’ve shopped around on some of the 2024s and been told MSRP and $2,500 off. I think the $4K plus for a 6 spd and it being a 2024 is a good deal.
