    What’s next?

    I have a 2017 Tuono 1100rr that's been tuned, 1" higher bars, set up for my not so svelt 6'2" 230lbs frame, and I've done everything from track days to curvy roads to sport touring. Only thing it sucks at is long highway drones, but I avoid those for the most part. I bought it new and I can't...

    I see a lot of people not liking the sunroof option

    I leave the shade open all the time on my 5 with the sunroof, especially in the dreary NE winter. I'm not concerned with lap times as I'm not entering any competitions with the thing LOL. Every once in a while I open it and it's relatively quiet. No regrets. Also, I've had sunroof cars for...

    CT5-V Blackwing preignition / pinging

    @99sport, what's the status of your engine knock issue? Mine went away starting with the first fill up after replacing the gas from the dealer, confirming they put low octane gas in it. Seems to run perfectly now with exception of tiny lumpiness at lower rpms and larger throttle openings, but...

    Alignment Advice

    Okay, I'll bite. If there was nothing wrong before, why did you get an alignment to begin with? Everything is fine. Caster is not adjustable and close enough. Everything else was in spec before and still in spec now!

    CT5-V 5BW OE wheel weights

    I suspect when reducing that much unsprung weight, there's a need for more high speed rebound damping. What you may be feeling is the wheel going down the backside of bumps faster (because the springs push the wheel back down as usual, but now there's a lighter mass to accelerate downwards)...

    You'll love it in person. Really stands out and perfect color for a Caddy.

    Pics of your Blackwing in regular parking spots

    Yessir. I absolutely love it. It's unusual without being over the top for me. I often look back at the car when I walk away from it.

    Pics of your Blackwing in regular parking spots

    Shoprite in NJ yesterday. I still can't walk without a boot due to Achilles Tendon repair surgery 6 weeks ago, but I've been going crazy so on nice days I switch to a sneaker before getting in, drive, and put the boot on when I get out. There's another guy with the same color scheme around here.

    Dealers That Are Not Charging Above MSRP

    Lol, yes, I noticed that.

    Dealers That Are Not Charging Above MSRP

    In case anyone is interested, I got this text from Natalie Sells at Genesis Cadillac in St. Clair Shores, MI for a white 6-spd with sunroof available. I've had an order in with her for MSRP, but can't confirm that with this one. I do suspect MSRP though. Ct5 Blackwing white / sky cool...

    CT5-V Blackwing preignition / pinging

    There's a guy on here (American Airlines pilot I believe) who had his engine replaced and everything worked out fine in the end. Through Sewell I believe and took only three weeks. I'm afraid damage may be done by now.

    CT5-V Blackwing preignition / pinging

    I was thinking the same thing, which makes me think it's either bad knock sensors or incorrectly installed knock sensors. If that was the case, the ecu would have no idea about it.

    CT5-V Blackwing preignition / pinging

    @99sport, keep us in the loop on what you find. Perhaps it's time to drop it off at the dealer and let them sort it out. Last thing you need is for them to put the blame of any damage on you.

    CEL turns on and car goes into limp mode when wet

    Did they tell you if they pulled any codes?

    What "don't" you like about your BW"?

    I have a manual, and I hate that there is no back button for the infotainment system. Would make navigation a lot easier.

    CT5-V Blackwing preignition / pinging

    That is so f-ing shitty. Sell a car that expensive and save maybe $15 to risk damage. So low brow.
