Guess you don't want one bad enough! :Steer
Me knowing my new '28 CT5 Wagon twin turbo V8 Blackwing is almost landing at the dealer and I'm short money:
They will have a V8 for the next gen trucks/SUVs and Corvette (maybe Camaro reincarnation?). So, a derivative of a higher performance V8 could easily find it's way into the next-gen CT5. Also, Cadillac is going F1. You think they won't have a high performance model or three? :D
I think GM/Cadillac has enough enthusiasts that they will try to push through a next gen Blackwing. GM is still investing in ICE and next gen V8 and they are rolling back their EV ambitions, so I really don't see any reason to NOT have a Blackwing.

I posted on another thread on a Honda S2000 board I've been on forever that my two most 'enjoyable anytime' cars I've had the past many purchases was a 2024 Corolla GR and a 2022 Subaru BRZ. Both were a riot no matter the speed or venue you were driving them. Just super fun and enjoyable cars...
my 5BW and C6 ZR1 are my perma-cars, not selling them hopefully ever. Peak cars (for me).
Everything else is interchangeable. That said, I'm 48 now and realized driving boring cars is not something I want to be thinking about laying on my death bed. Only truly boring car I had was a...
I've heard the BDT club initiation involves BBC or something along those lines. Good luck!
Yes, thanks to those vets who gave their all so we can play with toys and talk about them on the internet! :pat
Beautiful R8 and that V10 singing through the Akropovic exhaust must give you goose bumps.
Bummer you had to sell the 5BW, but life is full of experiences!
