    Regarding the sunroof, I suffered with constant squeaking and creaking until I figured it out. Turns out the panel wasn’t closing completely. To get it to close fully, you need to use the “override” feature by pressing the close sunroof button for more than 10-20 seconds. Eventually, you should hear the panel close a little more and voila, the noise IS GONE!!

    I knew they were going to stop making them, so I bought two. Both are 16's with 9,000 miles. One with ricaro seats and one without those seats is more comfortable. I keep them as an investment. Haven't had any problems. They don't get along with Mustangs.

    I have a 2017 ATS-V. 34k miles. Just got the CUE replaced because it cracked and it froze on the start up screen permanently. Also my carbon inserts have warped as he mentioned. I did crack one trying to see if I could push it back in. No issue with the sunroof. I didn’t get the Recarro’s and my seats are in new condition. The regular seats hold you in place real well. So didn’t need the Recarro’s. I’m not trying to compete so it’s all stock still. I still get heads turning. Just yesterday I got 2 compliments within an hour. Paid 72k for the car and am very proud of it. Other than those 2 issues it’s had no other issues. Twin turbo does raise the cost of gas, must use premium and not a standard oil change.

    My biggest complaint is the paddle shifter delay, you have to hit it about 500rpm before you actually want it to shift.

    Im a H Town stock V3 owner.. same color as yours. I don’t like the brake dust. I prefer the 6 speed from my V2 over the 8 speed. 1st gear is useless.. I always have to put into 2nd gear if I want to fishtail out a lot. Would be nice if paddle shifters were stationary. I wish it would have came with more supercharger whine like a hellcat. Rear tire options are limited. V2 was smoother. My bet is that the next gen V will be hybrid similar to the E-Ray vette. Holler at me, I’m in Houston too. Take some twin V pics for your content. Good to see a \m/ town V content creator. Good job.

I am doing my level best to [not] modify this car which, as it turns out, is one of the disciplines required. They are pretty expensive to maintain. $2k for a set of tires.
