    Next Gen ICE CT5 Officially Confirmed!!!!

    I'd be happy with an upgraded LT4 AND a concerted effort to get the weight down to just under 4,000 lbs. It would awesome to have a standard weight starting with a 3 when too many are close to or over 5,000!

    2025 gauge glitches and software updates

    If you can leave your car outside overnight, you will catch up on OTA updates (it's been awhile but if my memory serves, anytime outside for more than 90 mins will do).

    CT5-V What don't you like about your CT5-V Blackwing?

    I have a S24 Ultra with a slim case and it fits perfectly, never moves and has survived several drops - see attached photo.

    Totaled?

    Looks totaled. If not, sneak into the wrecker yard and light it on 🔥 :)

    CT5-V What don't you like about your CT5-V Blackwing?

    I found that if I forced myself to use it for a couple of days I adjusted quite well (started with the V3 CTS-V so I have over 100k miles with it now and I'll be er go back - no blind spots, ability to zoom, etc..)

    CT5-V What don't you like about your CT5-V Blackwing?

    I have a '22 so no built in, just phone projection. Like I said, phone projection on our older BMW integrates turn instructions in the HUD but not on the BW. A minor nit.

    CT5-V What don't you like about your CT5-V Blackwing?

    I have this clear case that always grips the phone in the corners. I put it in the center console for track session though.

    CT4 BW Red battery light/voltage drop?

    Occam's razor - start simple meaning battery failure (due to age) before alternator. My 5BW is throwing codes now 100% consistent with needing a battery after 4 years.

    CT5-V What don't you like about your CT5-V Blackwing?

    My only nit is that third-party navigation apps like Waze and Google Maps don't integrate with the HUD like they do on our older BMW.

    Strange brake assistance

    I had a chart from Spring Mountain that shows the differences in stability control by PTM mode but I can't find it. Does anybody have a version they can post?

    Strange brake assistance

    I simply drive in Track on the street and on the track for a very consistent experience. It's even fine in chillier rain periods since I know better than to push the car hard in those scenarios. Once it dips below the low 40s I drive something else and I know my track season is over here in...

    Maintenance at 1521 Miles Plus Some Other Questions

    Not only did I change my oil at 1k, I also changed the rear-diff fluid at 1.5k (right after diff break-in).

    Stolen 5BW

    I don't understand why he doesn't activate the OnStar account, find the car in the app, and go there with his key.

    3,000 miles, rotors warped, GM won't replace

    Any chance another shop or you have ever removed the wheels that the dealer would be aware of? If so, there's a small chance they think the issue is that over tightening of lugs caused the problem. That said, I'm going with pad deposits. I wasn't able to complete the craze burnishing...

    T-Boned a Red Light Runner in my 5BW 😠 Adios collectible value

    With an uninsured at fault, that's the only recourse with no option for subrogation.

    T-Boned a Red Light Runner in my 5BW 😠 Adios collectible value

    The manual take rate will put it at just under 5k units but they're still making more. Unless you're planning to not drive it for decades, it's a poor option for a collectible from a financial return perspective. It's not exclusive enough to be frank. A high end Porsche built in similar or...

    T-Boned a Red Light Runner in my 5BW 😠 Adios collectible value

    Wow, glad you're OK though. That's the most important part. FWIW, I don't think these cars are going to be that collectible. There's over 10k of them in the road and growing and with EV-only focus waning, it's only a matter of time before GM announces a hybrid or maybe even ICE (I can dream...

    Media dumps

    I ironically, I call my car and the V3 before it the, "Cock Magnet". I've never had so many dudes want to talk or compliment my M3 or any other car. It's always dudes. Good thing I'm married because this car would not help a single straight guy (I'm guessing that requires a Porsche or up if...

    Tire shop damaged my car! Advice?

    Maybe find a pro who can do it on the side? Either way, definitely keep something that minor off the history report even if it means doing it yourself.
