    Fit and Finish Issues - '23 4BW

    This is my first car with a wireless charger and I've always heard how pointless they were in cars. All I ever read was they weren't so much of a charger as they were a phone heater. Made the phones get extremely hot and barely charged the phone. I was shocked when the one in my BW actually...

    Fit and Finish Issues - '23 4BW

    Common story with current Mercedes cars. CELs are rampant on all the new generations. It's not an S Class, but the new C43 has a manufacturing flaw where molding sand got left behind in the engine block. It basically ruins the coolant system within a few hundred miles of driving. The only fix is...

    Dealers That Are Not Charging Above MSRP

    If anyone buys from this dealer they need to make a point of going up and getting the car themselves so they can stop by Paula's Donuts in Buffalo.

    Moderators

    Like was previously mentioned, the ads are targeted. Are you sure you wife's boyfriend isn't using your computer to look into buying a Honda? I know when that happens to me I get all sorts of crazy ads.

    5BW 6sp - heel and toe issues

    I haven't had a problem with this at all. I just brake with the left side of my foot and blip the throttle with the right side. The pedals seem perfectly placed to me.

    Dealers That Are Not Charging Above MSRP

    For the 5BW you can buy the carbon package 1 pieces a la carte after you have the car and just install them yourself. That's what I've done and have everything but the splitter right now. Not sure how easy it would be to do that with all the CF2 parts, but it can probably be done.

    Wait times for normal orders

    Talk to a different dealer, no reason to wait that long. Took me less than three months from when I placed the order to when it hit the dealer. Buying out of state is very easy in 2023 if you need to.

    Hello BW fans - just put an order in for CTV 4 BW

    I know what you mean. My wife did not like the Blackwing and told me it was either her or the car. Obviously I chose the car. She's been nice though and lets me park the car in the driveway, so I'm living in the Blackwing and she's in the house. I was able to move most of my things into the...

    Dealers That Are Not Charging Above MSRP

    If you're looking for a amazing dealer call up Howie at King O'Rourke Cadillac on Long Island. Not sure what their inventory or allocation situation is right now, but he's a big car guy and will treat you right. They're a pretty big dealer and get a lot of allocations.

    Dealers That Are Not Charging Above MSRP

    Good lord, what a bunch of crooks. I tried them for my 5BW and was told $25k over. I posted that in this thread and I'm pretty sure there was a salesman from Gold Coast who responded saying that was before he started and that he wouldn't markup. I guess that was a lie.

    Needs moar sound

    Another comment agreeing with how loud it is outside. I was backed into a parking spot in a parking garage so the exhaust pipes were close to the wall. When I turned it on the noise echoed incredibly loudly and scared an older guy walking by.

    Maverick Noir Frost

    As someone who had a matte paint C63S for three years I just have to make sure you know it's very very difficult to fix those inevitable chips and scratches. To repair a small scratch you have to repaint an entire panel at minimum, you can't just buff them out or repaint small areas and blend it...

    Is it a toy?

    For me it’s a weekend toy mostly. I drive about 40,000 miles a year for work and wouldn’t ever want to buy a car like a BW for daily driver purposes given that. I’m also parking in NYC a lot. So for me the BW is for the weekends, trips, most non-work driving, and the occasional weekday drive to...

    Post your current drive modes

    99% of the time I’m in the default V Mode or My Mode, which for me is everything maxed out except suspension which is at its softest. Only time I’ll drive in Tour is when it may be a little disrespectful to make a ton of noise, like a funeral procession or something.
