    Am I crazy? Honest feedback wanted

    Mine only has 13k miles, but I don't drive it in the winter and I work from home, so don't need to put a lot of miles on it.

    Lotus Emira

    The V6 not passing emissions is something they knew was going to happen eventually, they said that from the beginning of the Emira. The Toyota V6 Lotus has been using for years is an old engine design. This is why the AMG i4 version was also planned at the launch of the Emira, because it would...

    Lotus Emira

    I have owned 3 Lotus. Elise (used), Evora S (used), and Evora 400 (new). I was excited for Emira (pre-announcement) until I saw the specs and felt it was too much if a lateral move from the 400. Was hoping it would be closer to 500HP. Awesome looking car though and I imagine is very similar to...

    2024 CT5-V Blackwing engine failure

    Getting the point where we almost needs a sticky for all these engine failure threads. Seems like a new one every week or two.

    Anderson composites Rear spoiler

    Not all of those holes you see on the trunk in the linked pictures are used for the OEM spoiler. In fact you need to add 2 more holes. OEM uses 6 bolts to attach the spoiler, but the outside 2 bolts use retainer clips instead of nuts to hold them down because that area is the trunk is very hard...

    CT5-V 2025 CT5-V Blackwing pricing

    When allocation came through for my 22 the dealer said I could get it if a dropped CF1 and CF2. I really wanted the CF1/2, but I also had a bad feeling the price of the 23 was going to go up significantly and it did. Not only did the base go up, but each CF package did as well. Considering there...

    The Blackwing Spotting Thread

    Believe I saw a gray (forget name of color) 5BW going west on I96 in Michigan yesterday (Sunday, June 2). I was in my Infrared 5BW going east.

    Hoo boy- 90 mile Auto CT5 BW 74k reserve not met

    Yikes, wonder how much difference a manual would have made. Also, how the hell does a 2022 only have 90s miles?

    The Blackwing Spotting Thread

    Believe I saw a black 4BW in Salem, Ohio today.

    Marker Light Removal

    Funny I just did those today. Here are basic instructions for 5BW (or any CT5 I assume): 1. Turn wheel all the way so you can access. 2. Remove 4 screws in the front of the wheel well (requires a small torx bit, don't remember which size). You may need a shorter driver or ratchet with hex...

    2025 5BW updates

    Makes me more glad I dropped the CF on constraint and got the '22 when I did.

    The Blackwing Spotting Thread

    My experience is quite a bit different. My 5BW seems to get noticed quite a bit on the road. I have people wanting me to roll down my windows at stop lights, people telling me nice car all the time, etc. Not sure if all of them know its a BW, but some do mention its a BW I also took it to a...

    2025 5BW updates

    Yeah the side view of the 5BW is by far it's worst angle. I think this is because of the 19" wheels and that you can't see the vent on the 5BW from the straight on side like you can the 4BW. I think the front looks good with the wider fenders. The back isn't bad, but would have been better if...

    2022 Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing Collector Series 6-Speed…..BAT

    The original 250 would probably have had more cache if production ended in 2024. However since its receiving a mid-cycle refresh and I assume will probably be produced for another 2 or 3 models years I don't see them having that much collector value. This will be especially true if performance...

    More Aggressive CT5-V Blackwing Carbon Front Splitter

    @Terrance Sig how does your carbon look with the OEM in person? I see you haver carbon side pieces which I assume are OEM. I heard the OEM carbon is more yellow than yours (or maybe its the other way around), I was wondering if its even noticeable since they aren't exactly side-by-side? I am...

    2025 5BW Honest Opinions

    Honestly I would have just kept the front as-is and updated the sides and rear end. I think if they could have updated side vents to be more like that famous render that gets posted occasionally it would have helped the looks of it a lot. I wish the rear end fenders flared a bit more like the...
