    Motorcycles, anyone?

    Don't get me wrong -- I think motorcycles are great. (I'd own one except I know I'd be mortally injured in no time flat.) Rarely is it the rider's fault when something bad happens. Moreover, the margin for error to escape major injury is so very small. I've just seen too much badness both...

    Motorcycles, anyone?

    There's a reason why, we in the front-line medical field, call them donor-cycles. If you've been this lucky thus far, I wouldn't push it any further. Distracted drivers are getting worse & more plentiful. Don't become a statistic.

    CT5-V Sun Visor Warning Label Cover

    Anyone know if there's a stick on to cover up the warning labels on the sun visors? I find those things to be so ugly. I've ordered them from FleaBay for the C8 but doesn't look like anyone (not even Savage) makes them for the CT5. If I can't find them to purchase, I might have to DIY something.

    CT5-V CT5V Blackwing Winter Storage

    I really feel for you guys/gals that have to do this. Especially with the Michelin AS tires I just installed, I'll be driving Pegasus all winter long in North Cackalacky. If we get even an inch of snow here in Raleigh, it'll be snowpocalypse and I'll probably have to drive my F-150 for a day...

    2025 M5 vs. 2025 CT5-V BW

    Caddy made the CTS-V Wagon in 2011-2014. There were ~2000 sold. In a straight line, the automatic tranny version was (slightly) faster than than the coupe or the sedan bc of its shape. I think there were <400 MT versions sold. I saw one at a track event at VIR in 2013 driven by a Novice student...

    2025 M5 vs. 2025 CT5-V BW

    When I'm driving, I don't see what the exterior of the vehicle looks like. I'm just enjoying the visceral experience. The interior touch surfaces are acceptable & the seats are comfortable enough for me. I don't really care what she looks like from the outside. Yes, I'm into her personality &...

    Software update letter from Cadillac?

    Weird. I got the letter for my C8 but not the 5BW (yet). I had the C8 in for the recall a few weeks ago.

    Multi-topic thread on retirement and second car

    Any interest in competitive shooting or just learning to handle/use a firearm? Triangle Shooting Academy is a great place to try out shooting. They have rental weapons & the ppl there are knowledgeable & friendly. As for a replacement for the C6 for track duty, I think the BRZ/FRS is a great...

    2025 M5 vs. 2025 CT5-V BW

    I didn't even consider anything German bc I wanted the MT. Had the 5BW not come in MT, I'd have kept my MY20 Wide-Body Charger Hellcat.

    CT5-V Rear tire size

    The photo is misleading bc there is no gap. The hub part of the spacer is beveled so it gives the appearance of not hugging the hub lip but it does.

    CT5-V Rear tire size

    Looks like the listing changed as when I took into my Purchase History, it also lists the 12mm spacers. I got the 6mm spacers.

    You need the blacked out side marker lights to complete the look!

    MPG problem on new 2024 CT5-V Blackwing

    You should  ask demand your dealer refund your "gas guzzler" tax! This is absolutely unacceptable!

    CT5-V Rear tire size

    The OEM studs seemed to have enough meat on them for my setup so no need for longer stuffs. YMMV.

    Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 4 RF 325/30/19 with 6mm spacers fit!

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    This thread has all the information about the 325 size & spacer.

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    So, slightly mismatched bc the rears are RF but the fronts are not. Michelin doesn't sell a RF in 275/35/19. The ride is excellent and, not surprisingly, softer than the OEM Pilot 4S. There's also less tire noise. They won't perform nearly as well but I'm more interested in the improved wet...

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    Apologies but I already parked the cars for the night when I saw this thread. Bad angles but I think they look good. On the advice of another thread, I used 6mm spacers to keep them (rears) from rubbing.
