I have to agree here, I had the 1-4 skip shift on my 1999 corvette. you had to shift before 10 mph, or after 19mph to avoid it, or give it at least half throttle. It was so annoying,I bypassed it with a dummy plug I got from Ecklers.

I’m considering when I need to replace my summers, going to the gloss bronze sv104 wheels. I fig I should get 1 more summer out of them before they need to be replaced.

Hey Terrance finally mounted and installed my snow tires. Here are pics - they are beautiful.

Just out of curiosity, how many of you guys would be willing to go through the goat rodeo again if a refresh comes through for my2025, and Cadillac announces that this will be the final year for the Blackwing?

I just got the first oil change @ 1100 miles so the car is now broken in. I have to say that this car is amazing. You are right about not realizing your speed as I had a Kia inches from my bumper at 80 mph. So I wanted to see if he was going to try to keep up. Before I knew it I was going 103...

I have to say that my last 2 bmw‘s ( 2022 x5m, and a 2020 m5c ), the ventilated seats were one step above useless. On the other hand, the seats in my 2015 ford explorer were great.

Boy I lucked out when my Blackwing was ready for pick up, it was 50 degrees and sunny. I was able to put 250 miles on it before last night’s snow. Hopefully this doesn’t kick start winter.

Went to the dealer on Saturday afternoon and picked up the Blackwing. It was only a 15 mile drive back home, but I can already tell it was worth the over 8 month wait.

Well I just got back from the dealer, and my Blackwing is at the Jersey/ Pa. Border, and will be here either later today or tomorrow. My journey which started last May, is almost over.

Like a lot of you guys, with this latest update, I now have a EDD of 1/28. I know not to get too excited, but I believe I see a light at the end of the tunnel. We haven’t had any snow yet this winter, so I guess I know when winter will officially begin

When I did this, depending on the car,and position on the trailer, you could get out the door. Bigger vehicles and pickup trucks, you went out the window. I know it seems impossible to get out the door, but it was possible ( this was back in 1980, a I was 170lbs with a 28 inch waist 😄)

As someone stated, it’s best if you check with multiple dealers in your area. I called all the Cadillac dealers in my tri state area, got on their lists and waited. Luckily, the dealer nearest me got 1 allocation for a manual transmission 5bw. I went from 1100 on 5/24, to 3800 on 12/21. The...

I spoke with my sales representative just now, and he emailed me the window sticker. After seeing the sticker, I admit I’m getting excited. He explained that the Blackwings are not shipped in the same manner as regular cars, so there is probably no way it would be shipped until after the...

After being on this forum since my order was accepted, I know my chances of a quick delivery, especially during the holiday season, aren’t great. Back in the late sev and early eighties, I worked for Anchor Motor freight, out of Tarrytown NY. delivering new cars east of the Mississippi River...

I‘ve waited this long,( order was accepted by GM on 5/24 ), I just as soon wait until winter is over, but I know it will be delivered in the middle of a snow storm.
