Those are some deep cuts... love it. For me, what came to mind first was not necessarily an American brand, but Brand with a really long history Kinda died after the 60's but came back in a big way in the early 2000's Really passionate fan base but sometimes looked down upon by Haute or...

With a gray or olive NATO, 🔥🔥 Please do post a pic of that one!

My money's on a 124270 or a 226570

Vintage Rolex is 🤤 ... but with anything recent, all people (present company excepted) seem to wanna talk about is how much it cost and how hard it was to get. Also with people getting beat down left right and center all over the world for them, showing them off kinda loses the allure...

I think it depends on how quickly they think they can move that car with the markup. I see you're in San Jose (Silicon Valley) so for Bay Area dealerships I'm fairly sure the answer last year was 'immediately' - so many RSU's and crypto proceeds burning holes in wallets... no room for negotiation.

Owned a 95B.1 (first gen) Macan GTS for 4 years before selling it to replace with a new daily driver ... the Blackwing! There was nothing wrong with the Macan per-se, it was fun to drive for a crossover. The handling on summer tires is supernatural. Corners flat and has more grip than you...

Hearing these kinds of stories is disappointing because the Blackwings are supposed to be 'halo cars' that lure people away from other brands and turn them into GM/Cadillac customers for life. It doesn't seem like an isolated incident either. It's not even like this is about the basic level of...

Poor Man's Daytona, safe for LA and SF!

Thanks for the info on this thread (and the other similar one). This question, for me, was filed under "want to know but too embarrassed to ask" I'm used to cars with a "one-dimensional" driver setting - i.e. going from Comfort through Sport to Track, where Track would be the only mode to...

Like everyone my age who grew up where I did, I've got a real soft spot for WRX's (especially blue with gold wheels ... going flat out) but man, what were they thinking! Just another opportunity to say that I really appreciate how restrained GM/Cadillac have been with our cars given what...

Tangentially - Interesting R&T article (rant?) on BMW: https://www.roadandtrack.com/car-culture/a42087296/we-arent-bmws-target-market-anymore/ You can tell that the vision for V/Blackwing was to pick up the 'ultimate drivers car' market that BMW seems to have abandoned. I hope GM sticks to...

100% - the first dealer I contacted strung me along and gave wildly inconsistent and occasionally fishy information about things like deposit and ADM, and would never directly answer the question about how many allocations they were expecting. I was perennially 'next in line', and it became...

FWIW... https://gmauthority.com/blog/2022/10/2023-cadillac-ct5-v-blackwing-no-longer-available-to-order/ Looks like there will be '24s, just not a lot of them. I don't think it's strictly emissions - I think Cadillac figured out what other car brands playing in this market have figured out, if...

I'm not an industry insider or a manufacturing guy but 1 out of every 706 sounds like a lot.

This is the first I'm hearing of any delivery issues.... :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

If your GTI is a Mk7 and especially with a PP, keep it - I regret getting rid of mine as an 'errand car' daily. If it's a Mk8 then dump it, just for the haptic controls and infotainment alone :ROFLMAO: In all seriousness the Lexus is the right car to switch out in that garage (awesome lineup...

In Europe it was pretty common for owners of M and AMG cars to debadge. Not sure how it is now, considering the over-the-top design elements on those cars! That's one of the things I love about the BW, it can be a track monster that looks like an Uber (depending on exhaust setting)...

I wouldn't call it a hiss but I can hear a very high-frequency rattle/vibration that I initially thought was something to do with the speaker. Someone else posted that a similar noise was something to do with door hinges/alignment. If the dealer sorts it, let us know what the fix was - it'll...

LOL - possibly a correlation but 'cock' roughly translates to 'a-hole' in my UK-US English dictionary In the UK they don't have Infiniti G35/G37s (ducks, with apologies)

Oof. It's hard because we don't have the data, but this isn't the first engine issue on this thread, not even counting the C&D issue, and this is not a high-volume car. Going into this purchase, I assumed that the engine would be the most reliable part (the LT4 being used in other applications...
