    No Refresh for 2026 CT4-V Blackwing?

    GM being GM, I think you have to look at sales. I'm surprised it'll be back for 2026, but that might be it if sales are down. That being said, GM is a bit fickle

    Blackwing Option Rarity Estimates?

    I'm not sure that's correct. 2022 MY, CF was heavily constrained. They changed suppliers 2 or 3 times. CF started to be "easier" to get for 23's and now 24's. There were times during 23 and 24 CF was constrained due to the special editions getting most of it.

    Blackwing Option Rarity Estimates?

    Rob has almost all the data for 2022. Most data for 2023 and 2024 he's still working on. Apparently, he has a life outside of the forum. You could look at the registry for 2022 options/colors/rarity as a guesstimate for later years.

    Brutal Winter Car

    Depending on what they're using, brine is worse (but cheaper) than salt. Many DOT's are learning now that their bridges are rotting faster due to brine. Many have now changed the make up of brine to more "organic" mixtures to stop the wear.

    Order bank open date 2025 CT5V BW?

    I think it's wrong to take a sold unit, especially an ordered car, on a test drive (other than the buyer of said unit). What if they were to have an accident? I've had dealers tell me no test drive on sold units.

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    What is this sno you speak of? Is that the weird white stuff in those pix? Gorgeous here yesterday. Think it was around 70*

    In a dilemma… Help.

    This is correct. It records, basically, 360 degrees. PDR only records front view. The surround vision (not available on 4BW, IIRC) would be good in a accident situation, or better yet, valet or dealer service. Records when the car is on. Records to a SD card that you supply in the right side of...

    Camden! Between going to the hospitals with/for different family members and a former girlfriend going to Rutgers, I can tell you many stories about Camden too.

    Multi-topic thread on retirement and second car

    I agree 100%. Most of us here are truly blessed with wealth, good jobs, good families and good health. My wife works in senior living and she has some real (sad) horror stories. The saddest ones involve folks who have cancer or Alzheimer's who, they and their families, need help.....and not all...

    Media dumps

    I just got my issue Sat. I was very surprised by the results. I haven't read the article yet, but I thought for sure the BMW "check" would have tainted the results....as usual. With C/D, you never know what dumb thing they will focus on and give the win to another vehicle.

    CT5-V CT5-V BW Reliability/Maintenance Issues

    I've had mine at or over 100, well, almost every time it's out. I've been 120-155 (allegedly) and it is 100% stable. I have around 7300 miles and I've had zero issues. I do believe with newer vehicles it's a crap shoot in terms of reliability. The only thing I would highly recommend is if you...

    6,000+ mile owner review 2024 CT5-V Blackwing

    My only real complaint is the fuel tank. Sometimes you really need to plan out fuel stops. The power is amazing. It does have power all thru the band width, and I have found it's very stable at very illegal speeds. @MookdocOE , @VBhak , @rubberduck and anyone else is AZ...... we should all...

    Multi-topic thread on retirement and second car

    I did a calculation regarding both terms. Overall, I made about 8% a year under Orange man (factoring out the bad Covid down year). Close to 16% with the current guy. I am dumb founded how much money we've made in the last 12-14 months. I don't know how any administration can keep cutting...

    CT4-V Disappointed after lengthy Test drive

    I bought a 4BW new while I waited for my 5BW. It's a really nice driver. Handles well in the twistes, around town and on the track. Just a fun car to drive. BUT, I always felt it was under powered for 472 HP. I thought it would have been quicker. I often wondered if it was just my car?
