Echo everyone else in saying RIP CT4. That said, I can't imagine there would be a new CT5 but not a BW. The 5BW brings a ton of hype to the line, and the powertrain for the BW will almost certainly be a carry-over.

Thanks man, made an appointment to get it checked out.

Interesting. I just fired up the car in the garage to see if the battery light would appear. I did not put in back on the trickle charger after returning from my trip yesterday. It fired up just fine, no battery light. Started at about 12.5 volts and gradually made its way up to around 13.8/13.9...

Thanks, I think I might do that. It happened again today, though under different circumstances. I disconnected the trickle charger, got in the car, drove 50 miles without incident. When I fired up the car to drive the 50 miles back, the red battery light appeared again. At this point I realized...

It's possible, but the light on the charger went red to indicate charging and then green to indicate/charged maintaining, so it at least thought it had charged the battery. Typically when I see the red battery icon I think alternator issue. Anyway, going to fire it up and go on a long drive...

I have a third car for a few months so the Blackwing is mostly chilling in the garage, and I purchased a Noco trickle charger to make sure the battery doesn't go dead. I placed it on the terminals under the hood, it blinked red for while indicating that it was charging before eventually going...

I have a rear facing convertible on the passenger side rear of my 4, and a front facing toddler-booster behind the driver's seat. It's tight but the front passenger seat is still usable, as is (obviously) the driver seat. It works for day-to-day, but we also have an SUV which we use when we...

I didn't see any. It had the correct seats but I don't poke around too much in the interior

I visited my local dealer to test drive a Vistiq. It is a nice car. If you have not experienced Vistiq, I highly recommend it. Vistiq will rock your world. That was only the second most interesting thing about that visit. This coastal blue CT4-V non-blackwing apparently erroneously left the...

Yeah I just do normal and don't drive like a goon

Fun fact: that penguin thing on the floor is a travel potty, but my 4 year old utterly refuses to use it for reasons that only he understands.

I've got a dirty car in a snow bank and a happy baby to contribute.

This is a great idea. I'm shit at gift giving and also telling people what I want for gifts, but I can always get down with some meats.

If I were in your shoes I'd probably just shell out for a nice red wrap and some gold wheels that are nicer and more unique than factory.

Make sure they take the shipping blocks off the springs.

A little over 14k on mine. I was piling miles on initially but then I moved, work from home, switched to a daycare a mile away, and now only tack on a few miles a day.

Are you one of those people who lives out east all year? Are you perhaps a grizzled fisherman? Joking aside, I had a friend whose family lived in the Hamptons. They'd skedaddle and rent out their property for three months a year and make bank over the summer.

I do love the Macan (although it is stupid expensive for what it is) but unfortunately its just way too small for my family purposes. Did you not like the X5?

Sarant Cadillac in Farmingdale, which is also where I bought the car. I hope to never be there again. I've been getting my regular maintenance done at Paul Conte Cadillac in Freeport, and I haven't had any issues with them. Granted, it's hard to screw up an oil change.

The problem really came down to (1) the finish on the wheels; and (2) the little V graphics on the side. The finish is part gray and part highly polished aluminum. They could replicate the gray just fine, but they could not get the fine mirror finish on the chrome-looking aluminum part. The...
