Maybe demand for blackwings will fall off thus it might hit our values short term, but maybe GM will just stop making them if they have to discount them. But what if I sell mine for a loss now but then wait another year and get one for a decent discount with a free driving school!

I agree about an expensive purchase just sitting over winter. And as the car market settles back from crazy, I’m assuming our BW will also come down. Even exclusive Porsche used market is starting to come down. If the car value stayed somewhat reasonable it’s easier to swallow.

I ponder when they will release the 2024 BW info. If they for some reason decide to increase HP on the car, I think our car value will go down. Sadly I can drive my car since it’s winter and it’s just sitting which makes me a bit antsy

I like to just throw my car here and there to see what carvana/vroom or dealerships will offer to see how value is holding up. I been getting between $78k (vroom) to $90k GM dealer. FYI - mine is CT5V manual with 1800 miles no carbon. Although I hope to keep it long term, it does feel nice...

Literally. Was going down a straight away around 105 in third and went to shift to fourth but accidentally pulled into 2nd! Car dash Christmas light on me but I put it back to 3rd and car just ran like nothing happened! Would be a heart attack if it was my car but these cars are built to...

If you go to the BW school, they do a figure 8 in wet and with traction on wet setting u can’t get the rear end to wiggle out. If you are in sport mode, it will give u some side to side but not much. But even if the LSD is doing its job, depending on tire and condition on road, you could be...

I see you guys are bad influence! Ha! Just have to weight all the options and having to save up for retirement, college for kids, etc etc.

Ha! I also have a BW for summer and Ridgeline for hauling/boat and winter ride. It does get sad when I have to park the BW and just drive the truck all winter long. I wondered if I could get a type r for winter duty but then having two manual cars plus a truck really not practical?

this yr I think u could submit a 2023 order until May or so.

The amt of discounts on regular CT4s and BW, I ponder if they will kill it soon. Old peeps don’t like driving in tiny cars.

I think LT4 will live on beyond 2024. The spy shots show quad exhaust on the future BW. Since the Escalade V still use the LT4 engine so I think they will keep making them for a while. But one would think it doesn’t make sense for GM to build LT4 for maybe 2500 CT5s and 1000-2000 Escalade Vs...

I came in 2nd place in autox in a 5bw with so many 4 BWs in the group. As a result, I always wonder if the normal joe won’t ever push the 4BW in corners so hard that they really wouldn’t feel any diff in 4 or 5.

Let’s start rumor! 2025 CT5 BW will be powered by Escalade V engine. With Camaro being shut down and corresponding engine stopped, maybe they will just take escalade motors for BW!

Savagegeese did a shitbox shoot out (Corolla, type r, n, sti, vwr) and GR was seen as a econobox pushed to its max. Overheated on track multiple times. It’s great for shooting through snow and slippery roads but for track, they said to look elsewhere.

Most of us don’t drive the BW when it’s in the 40s but since I’m in MN, I have to drive the car anytime I get a chance before winter slumber. Anyhow, as the heater has kicked in, I’m hear this ticking noise in cabin almost to the point of an old clock. Ticking stays at the same cadence until I...

Couldn’t get someone to take a pic of you outside? Nice background…lol

Looks like they do caddy classes on north or east. I saw several YouTube videos of caddy’s running north track.

Sitting at SMR right now. Did East track before. On north track this time around. North track is definitely way more technical. Think a CT4 would be a lot more fun than the CT5 on this track.

I’m heading there tomorrow. Anyone here going this week and then staying for F1?

I had the same issue so I demel it out around the lift points. Helps the thing sit flush.
