    Sorry to hear this. That's disappointing to say the least.

    CT5-V 2023 CT5 Blackwing Engine Failure (Shavings)

    We already went through the whole “who built your engine” thing the last time there was a rash of blown engines. I don’t think there was any correlation if I recall.

    Dealer racing new 5BW

    I stopped it when he started telling us how to recognize a BW from a standard V. And I'll watch any BW content till the end!

    What did you all drive back in the day?

    They were Cheviot wheels, Centerline knockoffs (no pun intended). I bought them used from a friend after he sold his Mustang. With my $300 car payment and $400 insurance payment I couldn't afford Centerlines!

    What did you all drive back in the day?

    Love the ‘68 Roadrunner. My first car was a white ‘68 Belvedere. Slant 6/auto. My dad took it in as a trade at the C-P dealership where he worked. He intercepted it for me for less than $500. It was clean too. This is my first new car, 5-speed 5.0. 0-60 in 6 seconds never felt so fast lol. This...

    Dealers That Are Not Charging Above MSRP

    We can start the local chapter of the Covert Haters Club. I bought my ‘18 V3 outside of St. Louis (s/o to Elco Cadillac, always MSRP) at a deep discount at the end of the ‘18 MY. I really liked it a lot but the 8L90 trans concerned me after I had the flush done. It just shifted weird after that...

    Dealers That Are Not Charging Above MSRP

    Yo! Yeah, I’m with you there. They’re the reason that I don’t have a BW today. I’m so put off about the whole thing I don’t even want to go there for service again (I had a V3). Fuck ‘em.

    My mk2 is probably my favorite car that I’ve owned and I’ve owned some good ones.

    Advice for A Daily

    As a wagon lover, I always wanted the RS6 but trying to get one during Covid proved difficult if not impossible. I still want a Blackwing but I’m also really excited to see the G99 M5 Touring when it’s officially unveiled soon.

    Advice for A Daily

    Though they share the same architecture, the m550 has the N63 engine while the M5 has the S63. I researched this heavily as reliability was one of my main concerns in purchasing a German car with a complex engine. I’m fairly confident that with proper maintenance, my S63 will serve me well...

    Dealers That Are Not Charging Above MSRP

    There’s a 5 BW (auto) at my local dealer listed at $2k under MSRP. Covert Cadillac Bee Cave.

    Advice for A Daily

    I’d recommend the M5 as the ultimate daily, Blackwing aside. 🙂 It really is great, bulletproof after 2 years so far (one unscheduled dealer visit), comfortable, fast, 2WD, 4WD it will do it all. My wife has a 2020 F-Pace S (not SVR) and that has been great as well. Just scheduled maintenance so...
