    Buying a pre-owned high MSRP 2024 CT5VBW or a new 2025 model?

    As an owner of a 2022 CT5 V Blackwing, I would say go with Option 2, the 2025 model. It appears GM finally had to admit that the 6.2L L87 V8 had machining issues that caused 28,000+ rod and main bearing failures in slightly less than 600,000 vehicles. The recall they made goes up to 2024, but...

    Machining problems sounds very similar to what the Toyota 3.4 V6 had, except the Toyota solution was to replace all the engines.

    Pics of your Blackwing in regular parking spots

    Your CS sighting virginity remains intact. Not a CS. For the CS they literally put lipstick on a pig and outlined the pig snout grill in red (amongst other visual "upgrades").

    Engine Failure

    https://www.cadillacvnet.com/forums/threads/has-your-engine-blown-up-yet.5375/ I made a poll to get a sense of how many active posters we have compared to how many motors have blown.

    Did you do or are doing V academy

    But dehydration will result in weight reduction, like a biologic Weissach package.

    I briefly misinterrepted this post as some hot female shopper flashing her butt to you as you were behind the wheel of such a panty dropper, but I was disappointed to find the photo only contained cars.

    EV Thoughts Thread: cause the old farts did their usual thing

    I love that the EVs don't need to warm up really. In the winter the heat blows hot almost immediately and the car is ready to go hard up the first on ramp. In the ICE cars, by the time everything is fully heated up, I'm already pulling into the work garage (15 mile commute).

    Engine Failure

    Yeah but the difference is that Toyota is recalling 100k TT V6s after admitting they have a problem and preemptively replacing the engine. GM is having a bottom end failure issue with the 6.2 V8 across all platforms and pretending like there is no issue. We have no idea if GM knows what the...

    I think it is. I had a few people in my group that paid their own way. Honestly as good as the course is, if I'm paying my own way I wouldn't do it twice. I'd pay similar money for a driving course in car I don't own, like the 2 day Porsche driving course that costs 4.5k. I haven't done the...
