How much discount with group buy and would you recommend 300 cel vs 400 cel for cats for 5BW? Thanks

Your Le Monstre edition looks amazing!

I have sequentially used ptm dry and sport on a familiar twisty road and indeed the back end kicks out progressively more when getting on it but in a controlled fashion. If you have a car like this, you can enjoy it on the street but still be responsible and mindful of other drivers and driving...

What are you going to buy as a replacement?

On my 2024 5BW, I have V-mode programmed with everything maxed out except suspension in middle setting. When in V-mode, I can access the various ptm settings from the steering wheel switch (dry, sport, race 1, race 2, etc).

I had a 997.2 turbo manual several years ago…I didn’t like it at the time due to lack of exhaust sound and long throws on shifter…in retrospect these issues could have been remedied with mods but crazy to compare to blackwing today and how good GM oem shifter and exhaust can be.

I still daily an RS4 in winter but we added a used 25 X3 M50 (turbo in line 6) for our kid and I have to say in sport mode the M50 makes for a great winter ride with good tech and features as well as rear seat and cargo space. Worth a quick test drive. I do agree about the plastic inside but the...

Do the 26 models have blind spot monitor?

5BW Coastal blue 6 speed is my vote but I’m biased…I don’t think interior color is a dealbreaker on this car as it really feels good driving the 5 and you will grow to like the interior I suspect

OG! Love the BBSs too!

RS4…Agree AWD, manual, and snow = hooliganism!

Love these retro comparison videos. I still daily an RS4 (especially in winter). Anyone else running one of these older V8s?

Expected gains with kooks headers and green cats? CEL with green cats?

Just curious…can they do any caliper color or just standard ones? And how about the steering wheel center marking color?

None that I am aware of unfortunately. I’m in same boat…considering headers at least with green cats.

I have experimented on the same tight turn with different ptm modes and noticed the car braking and cutting off power when ptm inactive and slippage detected and then increasing degrees of rear end tail wagging with dry ptm and then sport ptm (need to be careful as rear will come out a bit to...

Your car looks so good especially in black with bronze wheels and on those roads! Great pics!

I would write a well deserved google review and include a pic or video from PDR. That will force change to occur quickly.

I think this is true for a lot of cult cars out there…as years go on and people recognize how good the blackwing is without new models being made, people may search for cars with particular options that add value for them. I spec’d mine as I couldn’t find the combination I wanted used…6MT...

Great video! Really highlights capabilities in canyon driving and how blackwing is such an overall complete package.
