    anyone have a Z06 and BW? or trade to a Z06?

    I consider the 5BW as a "forever" car. I plan on keeping it until it gets passed on to my daughter in my will.

    anyone have a Z06 and BW? or trade to a Z06?

    Thank you so much for this post/thread. I have a MY23 C8 2LT Stingray HTC without front lift & the Z51 & all CF options were on constraint when I ordered her. Been considering trading up to a Z06 & this thread has made me decide to do it. I've been keeping an eye on AutoTrader for a slightly...

    Best cell phone Mount

    On my MY23 5BW, I have the ProClip slide-in mount. I also have this other kydex mount (but not for my phone). Both are very sturdy.

    CT5-V Catalytic Converter and Brake work

    Brakes: I had a bunch of track days on my 5BW & replaced the brake pads at 25k miles. KNS Brakes has many brake pad options for both front & rear. I recommend talking to them for your needs. (Disclaimer: I have no financial ties to KNS brakes other than giving them my $ for many brake parts over...

    6MT folks- Anyone experience this after spirited driving?

    Even after 2 separate days at Virginia Inter'l Raceway, have not experienced what you're describing. Not at the track nor afterwards. (I currently have 45k miles on my MY23 5BW.) The only thing I've experienced is some difficulty getting into1st & 2nd gears when cold but went away with...

    Soler Throttle Controller Install ?

    Start this video at the 4:00 mark. Even though the install video is on a C8 Corvette, it's the exact same procedure for the 5BW. One thing skipped over if you don't start at the beginning is either waiting 15-minutes for the car to "go to sleep" OR disconnect the battery BEFORE installing. I...

    Water/Condensation in Headlight Housing

    Was at the carwash today & noticed water/condensation in the driver's side headlight housing. I've never noticed anything like this in the past. The px side is fine. Anyone else have this issue? I know when this happened to my Genesis GV80, it eventually led to entire failure of the...

    Willing to wager that just putting on Cup2R tires on the 4BW would be a game changer in performance.

    The Blackwing Spotting Thread

    I got my '23 5BW from Otto Cadillac in Jan '23 after placing my order 12 months before. You? They were pretty good to me there. At the time with most dealers charging a +$10k mark-up, I got mine $2.5k over MSRP. My sister lives in Loudonville and she has leased an Escalade from Otto every 3...

    Noob-ish question on 5BW Oil Consumption

    Mine is a MY23 with 42k on the odo. I do my own basic maintenance and change the oil and filter when the DIC says. Since 25k-ish, I've had to add 1-2 qts in between oil changes. I run her pretty hard and often see trip digits on my commute so pretty sure I'm the cause of the extra oil...

    Pics of your Blackwing in regular parking spots

    On the C8, GM was thoughtful & did this with other people modding it like this Why couldn't they do something similar for the CT4/5? Back when I lived in NY & then NJ, I had a Miata & modified the front plate with a hinge so it swung out of the way over 15mph in the mouth of the grill so air...
