    CT5-V What don't you like about your CT5-V Blackwing?

    yes, thats exactly what happened to me. So how do we solve that? Can we just not drive that way at all? Or is there some trick? Because if we can't drive like that in short bursts to get from 15 to 65, and we aren't willing to drive way over the speed limit.....exactly what *can* we do with...

    CT5-V What don't you like about your CT5-V Blackwing?

    sure, but then the problem is by that point by the time you really get going and 'feel the whoosh' I'm going to be going way faster than I want to be going. It's my fault- I didn't research it enough. I shouldn't have bought a RWD car given how I like to drive(going fast in spurts but never...

    CT5-V What don't you like about your CT5-V Blackwing?

    So how do I control that? Thats the one where after you press V mode like 6 options come up, and it's the last one and I just make sure it has zero or 1 bar showing right? I don't think traction control was off when I tried to floor it from 15 mph or so. When traction control is off there...

    CT5-V What don't you like about your CT5-V Blackwing?

    well yeah, and thats what I will do now. I just won't slam the throttle down like that from 10-15 mph. In an attempt to go from 10-15 to 70 real quick. But that's sorta my point- with the AWD F pace svr, I *could* do that. And it was fun. the fact that I can't do the same with this car- a...

    CT5-V What don't you like about your CT5-V Blackwing?

    I'll go with 2 things I don't like about my 5-BW after about 800 miles: 1) The interior is definately subpar. My last car was a jaguar f pace svr(it's a powerful SUV). That interior was *much* nicer. No comparison really. In fact the car is getting ppf now so I have a rental for several...

    window tinting Blackwings....

    Do most of you guys do this? I recently bought a BW-5 Electric Blue manual, and want to do this. In general do you think they look better with window tinting? How strong/percentage does one usually go? Pics to help compare would be good.... I think no more than 35% here is the law.... Do...

    reasons I think (unfortunately) our Blackwing-5's won't be the 'collector cars' with huge resale over time some think.....

    how do we know that though? If 15 years from now when electric cars dominate the road(new and even used by that point to some degree maybe) if there is demand for a manual V8 RWD sedan(and remember demand is required for it to be a collectible anyways), who is to say GM or any maker won't...

    reasons I think (unfortunately) our Blackwing-5's won't be the 'collector cars' with huge resale over time some think.....

    The first and main reason is that for the most part all the cars that *do* become collector car classics that get a huge resale premium 5, 10, 15, 20, 25+ years later are cars where it *wasn't* initially predicted. When the Integra-R or Nissan Skyline or the old supra tt's or even more...
