    CT5-V Hello from a new BW owner

    Make sure you call Spring Mountain for the drivers course. (GM pays for it.) You live so close, you shouldn't pass it up.

    Accessing some performance features on CT5-V ?

    I know your pain. One day I am actually going to read that owners manual and figure how some of this stuff actually works.:Steer

    Wrapped roof?

    I got an quote of $850 to do a gloss PPF on the roof. The antenna has to be done in a wrap materiel because of all the contours. After seeing the photo, I will most likely do it.

    Victory Driven

    I had my copy signed at our local car show. Andrew is a a member of the Tri-State Chapter and is a plethora of "V" knowledge. He said that he may have to do an updated second edition because the book was finished a few years ago and they are still making different styles .

    Track Mode

    Good thing I have absolutely no idea what you guys are talking about. I get in, push the start button and drive away. By the time I figure out some of the bells and whistles.....I park the car for 6 months during the winter and soon forget all the cool stuff that this car is capable of. I'm...

    Tire shop damaged my car! Advice?

    A touch up is NOT going to look good. That is down to the black plastic and needs to be sanded and spot painted. I thought that $2k sounded a bit much. Its an easy color and should only take a day at a reputable shop. Don't go cheap. The poor man pays twice.

    4BW hood with carbon insert

    Agree with the PDR guy first. You may be pleasantly surprised. This is why I will NEVER own a black car. A small dent looks like it was hit with a 20 pound sledge hammer. White hides everything.

    CT5 Blackwing 1,200 miles dealership visit!

    I guess it depends on what dealership you buy from. I got the first one free and that was it. I bought a new 2022 Kia Telluride from a local dealer. They offered 10 free oil changes. I drove cross country with the car and when I got back I wanted my free oil change. They told me that the...

    CT5 Blackwing 1,200 miles dealership visit!

    I have ALWAYS done a an engine "break in " oil change on my new cars. Don't care what the dealership says. I know too many engine builders that have said that it is a cheap insurance policy. Did mine at 1427 miles, since it was my first FREE oil change anyway. My car has only 6500 miles on...

    Blackwings and Watches

    You can never have enough G-Shocks in your collection (or Invictas). These are my remaining 3 of 4 G-Shocks. Each one represents a life changing moment for me. The first one with the green dot (safety dot) was when I became a helicopter pilot. (Casio told me that it is one of the first...

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

    When I was there a few years ago, they told me that they have a deal with a California dealership to buy all the old Blackwings. I for one, would only buy it at bargain basement prices, knowing in my mind that the car has had the snot beaten out of them. Don't buy a pitbull that was abused and...

    Did you do or are doing V academy

    They give everyone a water bottle with the V-Academy logo on it. WARNING.....don't put it in the dishwasher ! I still have mine but heard this public service announcement from others on this site.

    Patiently waiting for my 2026 CT5-V Blackwing

    OnStar Prevents Car From Starting

    I used the On Star button years ago to get directions to a Cirque du Soleil show that was being held on Randalls Island in NYC. I did not know that they also had a regular show at Madison Square Garden in Manhattan. The directions sent me into Manhattan and I ended up having to double back to...

    Hummer trade for ct5v black wing

    That looks like a fully loaded , beautiful Hummer......but,.....I wouldn't pay 109K for it, No way, especially 1995. It had better have only 5000 miles on it and have been garage kept and maybe only then 75K - 80K.

    Dang Rock

    I have full glass coverage with USAA. I got a rock chip right in front of my face and called SafeLite. (This was in my Kia Telluride). I had to bring the car to a store because my car has the drivers assist camera and it needs to be calibrated after a new windshield is installed. USAA will...
