    Manual trans owners--both 4 and 5

    that or it's badge twin, the Integra Type R - a bit less boy-racer than the Type R. Though they released the MSRP today.... $52k is a pretty big bump. I suppose they are grabbing some of the ADM money for themselves

    PA / NJ / Northeast cars in 3800 or later

    my son has been (and will be at) the T14 cars and coffee - he said it is a good one. I told him some of my BW brethren might be there and to look you guys up. Alex and he might be driving the car he just inherited from my dad - 1991 Mercedes 300D, white over light gray, garaged and covered since...

    Leather or microfiber steering wheel/shifter?

    I wish they did a partial Alcantara/leather wheel. There are some good ones out there - the C7 ZR1, C8, AMG has a nice one, the Quadrafoglio, the old GT350. Best of both worlds, less wear (holding the wheel during spirited driving vs highway cruising) and it looks great.

    So my coworkers z06 was stolen from our work garage

    I've had this - first time found the EZPass sitting on the passenger seat.... suction cups failed and set off the motion detector. Next time - before I learned you can turn off the motion detector (overhead console button), we left the dog in the car and that movement set it off.

    Blackwing Order Tracking - 2022 Model Year

    after nearly 6 months, my car was delivered to a rail yard near Philadelphia. My dealer got approval from GM/the shipper to go and pick up the car themselves. Worth an ask vs waiting who knows how long to fill a truck headed your way.

    How is the paint on recent 2023 deliveries?

    We have Summit White, so one of the easier colors, but she did sit in the lot of doom for 6 months - February through July. The car was delivered with perfect paint and when I inquired, I believe (can't remember if I heard this here or from my sales person) that they were given an allowance from...

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    sorry this happened to you. Would the surround vision recorder activate with the "intrusion"? worth a peek - it would be in the Video Recorder on the Home Page.

    V academy

    Got an email from Gina yesterday - they opened up 2 dates (July 5/6 and Aug 7/8). We are doing the July session (we = wife is driving as well, so let the games begin) and it looks like there are slots still open. The desert, in July.....

    2023 models get new blackwing badge on the trunk?

    looks good and would be cool if flipped to all black with silver letters (hmmm... or maybe red letters)

    What "don't" you like about your BW"?

    The BLIS indicator is too close to the turn signal indicator on the mirrors. And it's a similar/same color yellow. I'd say at least make it red immediately (vs only if the signal is activated when the BLIS is activated) or move it closer to the car-side of the mirror vs the outer edge.

    Blackwing Order Tracking - 2022 Model Year

    Congratulations. Between ordering our car, getting an allocation, the build (12 months) and having her sit in the goat pen for 6 months, we moved from Philadelphia to St. Petersburg. I used this shipping company - process was super easy, enclosed trailer and took just a little over 24 hours from...

    A new competition for us all: Post your average lifetime RPM

    Greaaaaaaat.... before I do this calc, I "have to" rip around for a week to up my number. Wife, "WTF, do you have to wind out 1st, 2nd and 3rd away from EVERY light?" Yes, yes I do :bu

    Blackwing Order Tracking - 2022 Model Year

    hoping it's weather related and just due to cold temps and the tires freezing

    Where have you gone with your BW

    yes, that was after a fill up on a run that was not stop and go, but also not 75-90, so I guess the trip computer extrapolates that as a predictor of the next drive. NOT lol

    Where have you gone with your BW

    catch up post - we headed to Greenville SC from St. Petersburg FL for TG in the BW. Covered about 1,200 miles, saw an average of 21 to 22 MPGs doing 75-90 when traffic allowed amongst some stop and go traffic. Learnings - she will creep along, with no clutch engagement, at 5 MPH in first, 9-11...

    CT5-V C7 Z06 or CT5 V BW?

    @ericwilliamstevenson I had a C7 Z06 7m. She was a blast, the wife surprisingly really enjoyed it. Besides the physical logistics of space, I see two differences in my day-to-day between the Z06 and our 5BW 6m - the Vette got attention everywhere/all the time and always felt like she was ready...
