    Engine power before 500 miles

    I understand but just to be devils advocate, if break in is 1,500 miles why should our tach change to 6,500 rpm’s at 500 miles? What message are they sending when the training wheels are taken off at 500 miles?

    Engine power before 500 miles

    Thank you sir I get that but even the C8’s RPM’s are limited but with in the available RPM range engine up/tq are reduced until 500 miles. Are our 5 BW the same?

    Paint question.

    I don’t think it’s a tri color paint. However any lighter color metallics especially silvers are very difficult to match due to side tones being different between the factory flake and repainted panel. It can appear to match looking straight at it but walk to the left or right and can look...

    The Eagle has landed

    Thanks guys I’m in love, really missed my 17 SS sedan with a 6 speed and this car is so much more for obvious reasons. Had a Shadow Grey on order but got pushed to a 23, really happy with this new color.

    Post your dirty photos

    If someone can hack into the camera system in Michigan mine is built and should be covered in snow. Just look for the 5BW Argent Silver, dark gray wheels and red calipers.

    CT5-V C7 Z06 or CT5 V BW?

    Just my two cents, owned C7 Z06’s great car, 5th gear ratio sucks to me, if you get a car with level 3 aero you can really feel it holding the car back. Currently own and prefer C6 Z06 H/C car, more fun to drive. With that being said bought a 17 SS sedan M6 new and regret selling that car. Hence...

    What made you choose a Blackwing and what else did you consider?

    Due to the long wait I almost purchased a 2021 BMW M5 Comp with low miles. Luckily the dealer didn’t take my offer and 2 weeks later my allocation came for my 5BW. This next day the BMW dealer called asking if I’d consider another offer.

    CT-5 BW Exhaust - Pre Production

    I was gonna post something the same. Every car I had with exhaust valves that was the first thing I did was open up the exhaust valves. I’d really like to know the dyno numbers to see if it added anything and the difference in weight between the factory muffler and the Paragon set up.

    Thank you sir, I like a bit of both. I have the 13 Z06 RPM Motorsports Stg 4 H/C for the noise and 3,200lbs of fun, but hope to enjoy the 5BW for its easy of… well everything the Z06 isn’t. Very excited to get the car
