    Next Gen ICE CT5 Officially Confirmed!!!!

    I am a little more than concerned that the next gen CT5 is going to be a rebadged Camaro (4-door if rumors are true) and Buick. I assume Cadillac has something special up its sleeve to set it apart from the others.

    What did you do to your Blackwing today?

    Installed Corsa couple weeks ago and man this makes the car rowdy. Although I ran into pesky CEL, I was able to relearn the valves and zero issues ever since. Definitely recommend and super happy for quiet mode so neighbors don’t hate me more than they already do.

    LS6 Manual Blackwing?

    Yeah, as @AdamUCF mentioned, a hybrid/V8 + manual combination is virtually impossible due to the massive R&D costs. What we will likely see is a manual transmission mated to a front-engine variant of LS6 - either NA flavor (CT5-V) or supercharged (Blackwing). That said, this is all speculation.

    LS6 Manual Blackwing?

    Whatever variation they make of the LS6 to make it front engine compatible will surely mate to the existing Tremec 6mt. So yes, I assume there will be a manual LS6 type engine with manual if the blackwing is still made

    Has anyone gone from 4V to 5V

    Not sure how old your son is, but I would trade the 4BW for the 5BW to get the most return possible, and then find him a non-molested ATS-V coupe to hoon in. Win win and everyone is happy

    CT5-V CT5 Blackwing Deep Ocean Blue?

    This is option you can select for any car on builder. Only difference is Santorini seat belts as I mentioned before

    CT5-V CT5 Blackwing Deep Ocean Blue?

    As Le Monstre owner, I am happy Cadillac is keeping the package truly exclusive and not watering it down by sharing its unique elements (sans Santorini seat belts) with other limited runs.

    Best car I've owned

    100% agree. Heck, even a sub $30K miata provides one of the best driving experiences out there

    CT5-V CT5 Blackwing Deep Ocean Blue?

    Seatbelts are the same Santorini Blue ones as Le Monstre. Where did you see one with purple colored belts?

    Spring Mountain sales issues

    What’s the $175 fee for guest for? They said I have to pay if my wife is staying in hotel

    Spring Mountain sales issues

    I finally got a spot today after unsuccessful attempts the past two releases. It looks like you have to respond within 3-5 mins of email to secure a spot.

    G80 M3 —> 2026 5BW Intro

    Congrats and welcome to the forum! Funny enough, I was cross shopping a few cars with 5BW. The cars I shopped was: RS6 Avant (felt dated and next gen is around the corner), M5 Touring (too heavy and synthetic engine sounds are pumped through speakers), and M3 CS (really loved the car, but...

    Does anyone know if these will be "Special Editions" with a door sill plaque, or rather just a limited build?
