Media dumps

I race motorcycles at Laguna and I'm absolutely amazed by the location of the brake markers and how little time is spent in the brakes in any of the corners. Going to T2 I started to have a panic reaction cuz the dude still had the throttle matted 150 meters before the apex!!

Magnaflow exhaust development for CT5-V Blackwing

Yoooo I LOVE the hood on that thing! Reminds me of the stock one on my V3.

First article I saw on this. Seems like the assembly process is significantly different. Makes sense why it's 36k. Not sure if hand assembled is actually better.

$36k is a bargain for this.
Probably still less than an M5 CS, even.

Does anyone know who got these or which dealers? It seems like they dished these out by dealers based on who the dealers thought were the best choice?

I remain baffled at how Cadillac handles consumer loyalty. I had no clue about this and would have been interested had I known. To be fair, BMW is just as crappy with their M customers which I used to be.

You need to be a high roller and know the right people. These are not for peasants like me.

GM doesn't owe me anything just because this is my 3rd V. They have repaid me in spades by continually improving this amazing sedan.

It appears they were very selective via the dealer network and identified non Cadillac owner high rollers for this
