    2024 Configurator live

    Like that super cruise is available. Don't like that it's only with automatic. Maybe I need to keep my car 5BW #26 six-speed manual car as a low mileage toy and buy a daily driver automatic with super cruise CT5-VBW. That would be a fun garage combo. :D

    Got a quote for a custom exhaust

    But, will headers require a tune? I agree headers to stock exhaust will likely be perfect, but I don't like tuning new cars personally.

    Got a quote for a custom exhaust

    4-6k if it includes headers all the way back. Otherwise, I'd just give it more throttle. It's quieter on the inside than the outside at full throttle.

    First 1000 mile impressions with the CT5V Blackwing.

    They did the math and decided it wasn't worth the cost. I would have paid an extra thousand or fifteen hundred for ACC and remote start with my six-speed manual. Call it the tech convenience package or something. It's technologically feasible for sure, but it wasn't meant to be apparently. I...

    Of course, they could make it work for sure, but chose not to (engineering dollars). :)

    First 1000 mile impressions with the CT5V Blackwing.

    No ACC for manual cars. Just like no remote start. No workie for six-speed.

    Spring Mountain Track Times

    Andi and I were pushing the instructors in our hot laps, but I wouldn't say I was catching them. It was really cool that they carved Andi and I into our own mini-group and we could really push. We both have a lot of track experience. The instructors rotated through our mini-group and said...

    Anyone get their Blackwing badge yet? And are you putting it on?

    Shockingly, after months and months and immediately responding to the first email a long time ago, the subsequent emails, and going through V-Club, etc., my badge FINALLY showed up. Got it installed this weekend. My Blackwing is now complete. I was close to selling it for a big loss because...

    CT5-V Engine failure

    You'll get a new engine. It's a complex machine and engine. Crap happens. Some of y'all don't need to make a mountain out of a mole hill. Buy extended warranty from GM (if it gives you a warm fuzzy) and run the car hard. It's designed for it and the engine likes it. If it doesn't, you'll...

    You don't hit the brakes until you really feel like you might die, then jam them hard. :D :D

    More badge goat rodeo :

    Got an email after I’ve already tried twice unsuccessfully to get a badge. Maybe they are trying to get organized and try for real this time. Link goes to a form to submit your name, address, and VIN

    Blackwings and Watches

    I still don't have my damn badge. Thinking about dumping my Blackwing. It's worthless without that badge.

    Make sure you test drive it as I've read it's a harsh ride. The S58 engine is a monster though and I'm sure it's a blast. May not be comfy enough for your wife though.

    If the size is good for y'all, the Macan GTS is one of the nicest and best driving SUV's on the market. You cannot go wrong with one.

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

    I went with blue calipers on my shadow car with the bronze wheels because I also have the blue calipers on my C6 ZR1. Plus, I like blue.
