CT5-V 1G6D35R64S0810251 Warranty Block

Given history of engine failures, you'd have to be either totally ignorant of the issue or be a gambler to get into it without a powertrain warranty. The issue is that dealers are trying to sell these cars at basically normal car prices and wait for these that don't know any better.

I'd take the gamble all day long, but to your point, at well below market price. If it was a good color and a manual, then maybe $85k - $87k.

Like I said, that dealer has FOUR preowned 5BW. I'll bet they are all SM vehicles. They should be drastically reduced.

I've been looking for a blackwing for 2 years now. Came across all this stuff. Caveat emptor for sure! Dealers know they can scam the average person. Especially on these used ones that have stories..

Although on the flip side, I did come across a 2026 ct5 blackwing with less than 1,000 miles. Clean. Used car at a GMC dlr in denver. Story was that it was a GM company car or display vehicle. Did all the research and car came back clean. I also called SM and asked them to run the VIN to see if someone used the cetificate for the free course. They said it had never been used and they would make an exception to allow me to use the certificate for a free class even though id be the second owner. Kinda cool. I didnt end up getting this particular one but it did factor into my mental math on proce since I was getting a free $4k course. Just FYI if anyone is looking at a used 2026 with some kind of corporate use story behind it.
