Finally on the car... (had to revive it from my previous 2010 CTS-V)

Thanks for the clarity, yet I can't seem to find that fact in print. (I seriously intend this response in the nicest way.) Reading through this entire post, poor-sha's post #140 is the closest that I can find (to fact), which states just inside the seem, not on it. Does anyone have definitive...

Thank you for this post. Seriously helped me settle on a way to lift my 5BW. Instead of rubber blocks, I used some 2x4 that ways poplar (soft enough to confirm a little). Here are some photos...

My SS had 21k miles on it. Never needed anything, so parts weren’t an issue. On the other hand, I started having issues getting parts for the GTO, like brakes, rotors, tie rods, etc, until the G8 came out. Yet, my insurance kept going up due to cost-to-repair (meaning, the body parts were...

Thank you for reviving this thread. I seemed to have followed a path similar to a lot of folks on here. '05 GTO => '10 CTS-V => '17 SS => '23 5BW (all MT's) First, the GTO: Blue on Blue. By far, the most comfortable rear seats. Drove that car for 100k miles. Only issue were the rear tires...

Yepper. That was my first attempt. The clip where the X is in the photo just wouldn’t hold. I had to space clip down slightly to relieve the tension. That is where the toothpick came in. Inserted it into the nose of the metal clip, which prevented the clip from seating 100%. It was just...

Hello Everyone. Does your console look like this? My did. And, so does the new 2023 at Smail Cadillac. What are the odds that they were poorly cobbled together in the exact same way(?) Nonetheless, the section with the purple arrow snapped together with little effort. For the red arrow...

Ken was my finance guy. Good dude as well.

Pontiac blue?

Also, been waiting 9 years to re-register this plate…

Of course…

Looks like Sewel is getting one. It is listed on here Cadillac.com. (IMHO the color combo on it is the BEST)

Hello Everyone. Maybe this is the one that I picked up this weekend (?) Matched everything on my order except the gray seats. (just can’t wait any more) Here is the story: Messaged Bayway when it showed up on Cadillac.com. Worked with Rudy. We started at +$10k. I asked if letting them do...

Hello Everyone. Dale here. Telephony, network, automation guy from Pittsburgh. Hoping to pick up a 5BW today. 2023 Blue/Bronze. Sold my 17 SS in April and have been waiting in line. In the meantime, one very similar came in and the dealer will do msrp. A little history… Car guy and...

Maybe it could be worse? Brother-in-law txt’d me this morning regarding a black 2024 CT5 BW that showed up at the dealer. It has no paint at all on the bottom of the doors. They are going to paint all four doors :O One can safely assume that I’ll be getting out the mirror and creeper...

Hello. AFAIK the MT wasn't on constraint on July 20. Back on July 20th, the dealer that I am working with said that an allocation was available with MT, yet coastal blue was constrained. They got another allocation yesterday, constraints were the MT and blue. She said that there were 100...

Thank you. Yes sir. Had the SS since new, yet already sold it to fund the bw.

Hello everyone. Was just called that there is a 2024 CT5-V Blackwing allotment available, yet there is a restraint on the color. Only these colors are currently available: summit white, black raven, midnight steel, argent silver, and radiant red. No: cyber yellow, coastal blue, velocity red...

Had the same problem on a Gen2 CTS-V. The rear ones are easy to diagnose once removed. I have a crude video posted here.
