    Former/current BMW owners: your thoughts?

    My opinion as a former BMW M3 owner (E46, E90, and F80), and jumped to the CT4 Blackwing. I absolutely LOVED my E46 M3 and my E90 M3; the F80 was a "great car" but I did not love it. The F80 was missing the sound I enjoyed, and the turbos somewhat killed what I thought a M car should be. With...

    4Bw IMSA Edition-Decals, keep or remove?

    Keep the details. It's literally the reason for the special edition. If you're going to take the decals off, just buy a "base" Blackwing and save the money. My two cents.

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

    Another nit pick I have realized....the red stripe on my steering wheel is a little crooked/off center. The left hand and right hand borders of the stripe are not parallel. Left side is straight, right side is a little crooked. I hate it. I see it all day. I told my dealer but they offered...

    Cabin Air Filter Change

    So I may be able to help. I have a CT4BW, but hopefully it's similar. On the CT4 the cabin filter is inside the glove box. Had to open the glove box, "pinch" both sides so it drops down and then access to the glove box. If you want message me and I can text you some pictures. Took me less...

    Why choose a CT4 BW over a new BMW M3? Sincerely asking.

    Long time BMW M3 owner (E46, E90, F80). I had every intention of buying a G80 M3 (deposit for Isle of Man green on orange interior with 6 speed) despite the front end. I cross shopped the Cadillac and BMW for months; put deposits at multiple dealerships for both. Ultimately I found the G80...

    Do you plan to keep your 4BW stock?

    Very happy with the platform. I don't necessary want more power, but would LOVE to make the 4BW sound a bit better/louder/more "throaty". If there was an exhaust solution without cutting factory parts (aka bolt on) and no check engine lights, I would be interested.

    For the sake of resale value I hope this is a mistake

    ^THIS, would be my ideal spec. V8 in a small sedan, with a 6 speed. Would be "perfect" in my eyes, ala E39 M5 or E90 M3.

    CT4-V 4BW winter tires?

    I put snow tires on the OEM Caddy wheels. I used Bridgestone Blizzak WS90 255/35/18 front and rear, worked fantastic. Recommended by TireRack specifically.

    CT4-V 4BW OEM brake pad life

    4BW with about 12K miles. I, too, noticed my break pads squeaking more now. Never noticed it until recently that weather is nicer and I have the windows down.

    2023 BMW M2

    Looks like a bad body kit for a 1990s Honda Civic.

    Brutal Winter Car

    I.....drive my Blackwing all year round with snow tires/summer tires. No need for a winter car, and it's not boring! My two cents...just drive it unless you need to have a second car. Christopher

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    Any initial impressions, sound changes, etc? I'm debating buying a similar set up as I want it to look stock and have a matching intake cover/engine cover.

    Spring Mountain Impressions

    So I hope this helps others. I purchased my CT4BW in May 2022. I tried to sign up for Spring Mountain last year but it was always booked and I didn't pursue it much; thought I had lots of time. Went online today and it's still booked up. I now know there's a one year timeframe from delivery...

    Pics of your Blackwing in regular parking spots

    Thought I had the perfect color CT4 BW (Electric Blue) until you posted this. Looks great!

    How many of you with a 4BW or a 5BW actually took one for a test drive before buying?

    Unfortunately never had a change to test drive a 4 or 5 Blackwing as the dealerships were not allowing this. Couldn't even test drive the 2022 BMW M3 I was cross shopping either, and I was a current BMW owner! Ended up with the 4BW after watching numerous video reviews and reading magazine...

    Did you pay over MSRP

    Bought my 4BW May 2022. Dealer tried to make me pay $5K markup right before signing paperwork after we negotiated in email that MSRP would be price. I told them I'll walk out on the deal. She called me an hour later and said "ok we'll do MSRP as we agreed". I was absolutely ready to walk...
