    Gas costs lots more in Europe and they just don’t drive big cars. Gas is also formulated differently and crash tests are different, so it costs a manufacturer quite a bit more to get it certified for sale in Europe. Same for here too though, that’s why Bill Gates and other bought a 959 911 when...

    Modern Spare experience?

    I used one of their kits on my GT350 that I had. It was well made and all the pieces did their function. It came with the spacers too. The tire was a Pirelli. I’d say it’s a buy if you drive in places with no cell coverage or tow service.

    CT4-V Disappointed after lengthy Test drive

    If you drive the 4Bw in touring mode. It’s a pretty sedate sedan. Go to my mode and use the slider control to give better throttle response. Or go to V mode, max out all the settings for throttle, brakes, suspension, steering, PTM and exhaust, and you’ll go, whoaa. The sales guy won’t do it for...

    T-Boned a Red Light Runner in my 5BW 😠 Adios collectible value

    Insurance company will probably just pay out the market value based on comparable cars. But you can do your own research and come up with that number too. At least ask to see how they came up with it.

    AFM or DFM ?

    Auto off was used to lower fuel consumption and get a higher MPG fleet ratings for car manufacturers. It had nothing to do with gas guzzler tax.

    CT5-V Default "Mode" when Starting car

    No. It will start in the mode it was when you turned it off. Except V mode. If you’re in V mode and turn it off, I think it’ll be in sports mode on next start. I like this, past cars like my. 350 and 911s always started in normal mode, regardless of the mode when you turned it off

    Sounds like it’s wanting to be a diesel! My GT350 did that, bad enough I got a new motor after only 6 K miles

    Z06 to CT5V BW

    New C8 Z06 has a stop sale order on them right now. Too many gas station fires when filling.

    Z06 to CT5V BW

    Well if you get a 5 BW get one with the precision package. Or if you want better handling with less weight get a 4 BW. Google the reviews of a 5 BW with the precision package. If I was going to move up from a 4 BW that’s what I’d get. I’d fancy a 992 GT3 too, but that’s over 200k. From having...

    Curated by Cadillac - Hand built CT5BW

    A true hand welded full seam chassis would be nice.

    Is the CT4V Blackwing fun at legal-ish speeds

    Had my 4BW up to 150 MPH.......felt fine. No chassis lift or anything. That's with the regular aero. With the full carbon aero, NOO problems.

    For that amount, add another 100 HP or so.

    self duplicating and evolving code was being generated on ARPA net long ago. We called them worms back then.

    Rear Diff Fluid

    I think you can run either one. One is better for track usage but I don’t remember which one. Go look at the Tremec website

    Thoughts on purchasing a used blackwing that was a V academy car. Try to get at bargain price or avoid at all costs??

    When Ford got rid of their 350 Shelby’s after the classes ended people got great deals on them and they seemed to be fine mechanically.

    Auto vs. Manual

    A manual LS is rare. I think was only for the V6 right? That was a nice car that they gave up on. It drove nicely and looked nice. The V8 was a nice car too.

    Dealer Tech Didnt Realize I have PDR

    I think most of us old farts that have been managers for 30 years, would doubt that a tech that acted this way is an otherwise good employee.

    Dealer Tech Didnt Realize I have PDR

    I also have a remote second home and on occasion I let people in when I’m not there. I’ve had a blanket stolen, dishwasher detergent tabs stolen and a pile of loose change stolen by a plumbing company that had to rotor out my main drain pipe. I don’t have cameras yet but the plumbing company...
