I installed the Desert Dies It seat jackers. Initial impression is they help support my long inseam legs.

You caught me at the exact right time time. I have the car up on the lift for oil change and brake pad and fluid service. Pic of the car on the lift and also close ups of front and rear jacking points.

Congrats on the car. Love Coastal Blue. We should start a thread with cars parked in front of Buc-ee’s.

If you track the car, the 25-26 has PDR v2.5 which is a nice upgrade from v2.0 in 22-24.

Congrats on the new 5BW. One more addition to a nice selection of cars you have had.

Competition mode is supposed to disable traction control completely. Try that and let us know.

You should try using Launch Control. You are going to need the car in Track Mode with a PTM mode selected or in Sport with Competition Mode set. Check out this link for details on how activate the modes and to get wheel spin if desired...

CT5 BW production will continue “until the end of the year”. No specific date yet, but assume that means sometime in Dec. Orders close about 2 months prior to end if prod, so assume the dealer would need to have an allocation and your order submitted by end of Sept at the very latest. Getting...

I doubt there is a difference between 2025 and 2026 in general. More likely is no one has yet tried to install Eibach on a 2025 to give them the same feedback you did. Difference could also be due to the Precision Package. One thing you can do is see if the spring perch part numbers are...

I doubt this helps, but here is a pic of the back of the new pad with all of the codes.

When I was at the V Performance school, I asked a mechanic about the change in pad compound. They found the original compound would not hold up to constant track use as it would begin to crumble after repeated cycles. This was only on the front pads. He said that they contacted the pad...

Confirming that PP/CCB do not have rear deflectors and that you are only missing the fasteners. I checked my car and it looks like yours but GM deemed me worthy of fasteners.

My other car (not BW) is white and I went with a clear lens side marker. Looks great. Better than a smoke lens on a white car I would think.

photo pulled from Hagerty of the installed PP rear toe links.

Congrats! A light colored car in Arizona is a good idea.

I had them do the track alignment before I picked it up. The before alignment specs were terrible. Especially the toe on one of the rear wheels. If GM will align it free within the first 12mo, then I recommend taking advantage of that if you have steering that does not feel 100% perfect.

Spotted a bunch of BW at Spring Mountain. Yes, I know it is cheating when it comes to spotting. :devilish:

Congrats on the manual slick top. Glad you got what you liked without having to go through the goat rodeo. Agree on the reasons to get the car. 5BW is a super fun car for grown ups. Couple of answers/comments to your questions/comments: - agreed on the turning radius of the car. It is...

I do not what it is. But I certainly know that “dusty brake calipers” do not cause a noise when turning the steering wheel. The tech just threw a dart at the generic excuses dartboard hoping you would go away. Try to get a different tech when you go back.

Congrats to the owner of the manual with PP but without a sunroof. Someone must have looked up my preferred build. :thumb
