    Best Upgrades 5BW

    My shop and I agree with you @hawk02. Next would be intake and tb which we believe stock tune will be good with. Down the road from there would be things like pulley change, flex fuel, etc and the requisite tuning. Im hoping the tuning for Global B cost will be somewhat more "reasonable" at...

    Trunk insulation source

    Had all my sound deadener installed and the trunk liner put in place. Went in without issue and lined up nicely. Definitely has improved the bass from my 2 Kicker subs I installed.

    Lotus Emira

    No comment on the Emira. You have time to want that Vette though. My parents were empty nested in their late 50s by the time my siblings left. My dad has had plenty of cars and motorcycles. His first Vette was the end of last year, a convertible C5, and he is 83. :)

    Best Upgrades 5BW

    As of now still stock size. I wanted to run with what I had for bit. Maybe this fall/winter I discussed with my shop about trying some more options.

    Best Upgrades 5BW

    Yes mine is a manual. Kong Xport with zpe hub pulley was done. Kooks,plugs,Kong where all done at once. I was rather confidant from videos of mods done at other shops these would play nice with factory tune. Im happy to say they do. Might try pulley size change with belt at some point as well.

    Im not sure if it can but I did learn how to tell time in elementary school so I should be ok. :)

    Best Upgrades 5BW

    I specifically was trying to avoid tuning at this time. So no we did not tune. Been running several months now with factory tune and it appears to be compensating without any issue. Yes we dyno'd before and after. Local shop has a Mustang Dyno. Stock was 596 rwhp and after current mods 645...

    Blackwings and Watches

    Anyone happen to have experience with a Ulysses Freak (pic for reference)? Look to be great conversation starter without being so different I would find them annoying. @668LT4 you have commented some on Ulysses any thoughts? A friend said he hears they "wear" big but he had not seen one in...

    What were your must have options?

    Must have - Manual I have every option but the sunroof If I recall correctly. Sunroof was something I was looking for but it was not going to sway me all by itself. I have had on many cars and like but I can not say I miss it on the BW. In all honestly after having the car the way its...

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

    Unless the refresh of PDR, Front fascia, and dash where must haves there is no decision to be made for me. Option 1 wins hands down all day long. No blind spot monitoring and no volume knob difference just make this an easier pick.

    CT5-V Tan Interior

    No mine is the Electric Blue, no longer a color they have as an option. The Coastal I feel sits between Electric and the old Wave Metallic but much closer to Wave then Electric.

    CT5-V Leather Seat Bolsters Looking Worn but Brand New

    If you want some pictures to look at from a MY22 daily driver with 19K miles on it you can see mine here. Someone was asking about tan/black seat so I posted pictures of mine. They look as leather should in my opinion. https://www.cadillacvnet.com/forums/threads/tan-interior.1958/

    PSA or SGC and your experience? Baseball cards.

    @Sully I do not deal in sports cards currently with my store. I did collect them for about 10 years in the 90s (football mostly Aikman, Emmit, and Elway). We do gaming but Ill pass on this advice. If you want the most bang for your buck BGS for Magic the Gathering, PSA for Pokemon and Sports...

    CT5-V Tan Interior

    As we all know color and what you like are unique to everyone. I was not looking for Electric Blue or the Tan interior. I wanted Wave Metallic with Sky Cool Grey carbon seats. If I had found that car with the same color Tan that @ajamils liked in 1st page post #20 I would not have bought it...

    CT5-V Strut Tower Bling

    I asked Hawk the same. Here is his answer, I bought the same. "The diameter of the cap is 1 and 5/8 inches so I ordered the 42 mm size."

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    Finally got around to having paint correction and ceramic coating being done. Perfect weather to pick her up and enjoy a ride as well.

    CT5-V HORRIBLE experience with Bayway Cadillac SW

    I very clearly stated to my eldest son (18 at the time) you are about to learn how to say NO forcefully and often. The dealership was not bad but they did try some old school standard issue nonsense. But im not 18, my son is, and its very easy for me to say no Ill be going now. Great learning...
