I was also there thrashing Blackwings this week and was also in 565565's group (although we did not talk about this forum). Our group was indeed pretty damn fast, led by 565565's most excellent last track session. My track sessions were cut short because I was experiencing nausea if I ran more...

For those with CCBs, did you burnish them on the streets? Also, did you burnish before the 500-mile break in or did you wait until the entire RPM range was available (at least electronically)? I'm trying to figure out where to do this where I live in North Scottsdale. My guess is sometime...

We have to have manuals in our sports cars, so the choices out there are pretty slim right now. We have a 911 T with a manual and a Ford Focus ST with a manual. We've owned BMW M cars, but don't love the manuals (too rubbery) in those cars. We both really wanted a very high horsepower V8 (NOT...

Beautiful car and a great pic. The T is such an engaging driver. We love our garage right now with the 5BW, T and 3 Performance. They are all very different, but great at what they are engineered to do.

Properly ensconced in the the garage 😬

Thanks! Now it can be properly driven without upsetting my OCD self. We've done the same with all of our cars over the last seven years with no regrets. For those still waiting, stay patient and enjoy the process. All frustrations disappear once you feel the torque!

First pics after taking delivery on April 11th. Car ordered July 2021, 3000 status July 2021, initial TPW September 2021, built January 2022, delivered to dealer March 2022. I drove ten miles straight to our detailer and picked up today after 11 days. Paint correction, full PPF and ceramic on...

Ha, not weird at all, and certainly glad someone other than the dealer has seen it in person. I was assured that it was locked up tighter than the Autoport Lot in Lansing, so it's also reassuring to know that people aren't standing in line to sit in the car. Key Cadillac has been top notch to...

Mine was built on January 25th and arrived at the dealer on March 25th. I'd love to share pics, but I haven't been able to take delivery due to life things, work, etc. It's sitting on the showroom floor and I take delivery next Monday. What a journey...

I'm 86-318 and am patiently waiting like you. Soon enough, my friend!

Thanks, EWS. The backlog now seems worse than ever (some have had produced cars since November). They were able to clear the previous backlogs in September and December (Mirza posted on those previous efforts), but it sure does not look like the case right now according to the tracker. It's...

Along the lines of there is no such thing as a dumb question--what exactly is the Lansing Autoport and what is its significance in the shipping process? JCT delivered my car to the Autoport a couple of weeks ago.

Ordered early July 2021 Allocated late July 2021 Built late January 2022 All good right now. Fun to hear reports of everyone getting their cars. It will get delivered when it gets a ride from the mothership.

Many, many cars produced with VIN numbers sitting at either 3800 or DELAYED. Some have sat for several weeks or even months at this point. There is a huge shipping bottleneck right now and no one is sure when any produced cars will be delivered. Here's hoping that it will be during warmer...

Could be my dealer--Key Cadillac in Edina. 5BW ordered in July, built on January 25th, still waiting on whatever before shipping. Would be great if it took another 6-8 weeks to get to MN given the weather right now. Not sweating it either way at this point. Others have had it much worse.
