Had a mid 90s (1995) impala SS and also later a 1991 Syclone (unique Marlboro 1 of 10 edition). Back in a GM vehicle with Blackwing after long hiatus and loving it.
I’ve been driving manuals for 20+ years and always leave in neutral with parking brake on a flat surface. Except when parking uphill or downhill, why leave the car in gear?
Disclosure is I’m biased as a ‘24 owner but I think the new front is too busy with the boomerang black plastic pieces breaking up fascia. I also prefer the older headlights as opposed to the vertically stacked ones which look older CT6 or truck like. It’s hard for me to “like” the front end and...
Make sure you are working with a high volume blackwing dealer…I ordered one out of state for that reason. I’m still partial to the ‘22-24 as that’s what I own…if I had to order a ‘25 I’d probably get black to mask some of the distracting lines I find in the new front end. Good luck! Drift is...
I’ve had to order colors on a couple cars without seeing them in person…you have to get an order in the system in order to have a chance at an allocation at your dealer. You’re not likely to see typhoon or drift soon at a nearby dealer. For me, having an order in the system early last summer...
I think ‘24 is much improved with respect to carbon fiber. I got all the carbon fiber options and didn’t have to wait very long and as mentioned above national searches will show several cars available with all carbon fiber options. Once you start to limit to manual transmission, there are fewer...
‘25 model if it happens (seems likely) will probably have the new front end and full digital screen inside. I am biased toward the older design and picked up a 2024 model last month that I ordered in the summer.
Love those older bmws. I had S52 Z3M roadsters…fun, fast, and light cars. Had an S54 Z4M coupe as well. Cool to see other peeps here with similar prior cars somehow end up at Cadillac!!!
There will definitely be some good deals out there for used ct4 and ct5 blackwings. These cheaper 6MT ones seem to not have carbon fiber exterior options and upgraded seats although I have seen at least one at a Porsche dealer with these options and a bit of miles sell in this same range. I...
I agree…GM should learn from Porsche PTS, exclusive manufakturer, Audi exclusive, etc. I think there is demand for custom stitching, variation of leather colors, paint colors, caliper colors. Thankfully there were options for the blackwing to customize a bit but not nearly to the extent of these...
