What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Use the command \part*{} together with \tableofcontents
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected: The title of the part should not appear in the TOC
Reality: The title of the part is in the TOC
What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Version 4.1. Tried both in OSX 10.7.5 and opensuse
Please provide any additional information below.
I want to have a Part that is not numbered and that does not show up in the TOC. Usually,
I would use the command \part*{Intro} instead of \part{Intro}, but with the package
classicthesis this does not work.
The problem is that the Part (Intro) is still appearing in the TOC, and it also appears
with a different font.

"The main reason here is that titlesec just handles \parts differently to all other sectional units within a document. It sets up a separate handler to manage the titles and ToC-related entries, always writing the latter for \part." http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/199720/titlesec-creates-entry-in-toc-for-a-starred-part
This is where I'd stop. If someone really needs this feature, they can send a letter to the maintainer of titlesec. It's not a very good idea to patch other packages in classicthesis, for if they change classicthesis would stop working.
What one could do is to set the classicthesis option parts=false and still use the part/part* division. This would avoid any redefinition by titlesec. Formatting would be inherited from KOMA-script, and \ctparttext would not work.
