Same question I had lol

Further reinforces sponsorship bucks ;) Really did feel like they glossed over a lot of the issues I have with the M3. The fact they don't even discuss the xdrive pushing into 4k lbs seems... odd. Not that the 4BW is a feather weight but I'd sure notice an extra 200 lbs or more depending on...

I must ask how high Motortrend was when they did this test. Having driven a comp, the steering is numb with zero feedback just like every modern BMW. Precise certainly but I'd have a hard time calling the steering exceptional. Won't argue the engine is great on the Comp. Absolute shame it can't...

I think you'd need to drop the CF1/2 packages as well to really improve your chances. The CT5's are just barely getting built to my understanding. My dealer said there were sub 10 digits when he was allocating my BW4.

The couple smaller data centers I've planned out and built have been fun. I could see that being a great gig when/if I get tired of my current gig running the IT of a bank. The research facility was a lot of fun but way more work with a smaller budget and strangely way more money flowing through...

Hi everyone! Finally put down roots in Albuquerque, NM about ten years ago. Met my wonderful wife and decided to do a bit less hopping around. This will be my second American car and hopefully less of a pain in the neck than my Jaguar. Looking forward to meeting some of you fellow enthusiasts at...

I wondered if that was the case as to why we never heard those numbers. Appreciate the candor! No way would I ask you to break that rule but danged if I wouldn't like to know those numbers.

The more money I make the more tight fisted I get with this sort of b$. I'm already paying you quite the premium and you want more? Earn it like the rest of us that weren't born into wealth!

Thanks for doing this powwaah! While I am sorry for everyone else, this is great news for me as my order has no CF on it and the guy ahead of me does! Here's hoping they got an allocation and he/she can't live without CF!

That feels painfully accurate. Feels like a lot of the dealerships lately have been getting more "fratty" too. This mentality of not wanting to sell cars to you if you're not part of the club is bonkers. I may be showing my age a bit but it seems like it wasn't that long ago marques would be...

Seems like it's ADM or a colossal wait. Pick your poison! Considered a 911 or Cayman GTS 4.0 but they're all saying 2 years wait plus their version of ADM for the more rare cars. They call it a "relationship fee" if only I'd bought my previous Porsches from them I wouldn't have this problem...

An excellent question. I just had to hear the whole thing since it was just so patently wrong. Guy was completely on a rage train about just about everything especially the electrification of Cadillac. Won't be doing any of that at this dealership while he's still alive!

Sounds like my local dealer. They got a single CT-5 V Blackwing and sold it with 10-15k adm. Said it was the only one being produced for my state and all that jazz. Also, the 4 Blackwing is a "vapor car" that isn't being produced followed by a sales pitch for an Escalade. I'll be making the...

Simple solution is Lockhart needs to just stop stocking Escalades! lol

No need to apologize I think everyone here is equally frustrated... at least those that don't have their car yet. I imagine your situation is even more frustrating than mine since your car is just sitting there. Given the chance, I'd fly over and pick mine up when it's made. Driving it home...

It really seems random which dealers get an allocation. I'm at the top of the list with a deposit down over at Lockhart Cadillac and they didn't get a single allocation. Sad day for me! I'll keep hoping that one day I get a car haha!

Man, if they keep back sliding I may end up with an M3 before a Blackwing. Ah well! The idea of going back American for a bit sounded fun. Maybe GM will still manage it. Only time will tell!

I can confirm. Was seriously thinking about a Cayman GTS/GT4 to replace my F-Type but the 25k "relationship" fee at the local dealer got rid of that consideration real quick. I'll join the collective to tell these dealers to pound sand.
