GM Authority posted an article that the 2023 CT5-V Blackwing orders have all been taken and that they are now closed. New orders will have to wait for the 2024’s to open up. Last year GM was taking orders for the 2022’s at least until March/April. I wonder if they are closing the plant early...

I spoke with a dispatcher from Accelerated Services (Auto Trans) on Tuesday this week (wonderfully pleasant and professional). She mentioned that GM "hasn't been releasing Blackwings (5BWs that is) to ship for a little while". Seems that they have been unable to deliver any for a couple of...

In the deals, oil change bundles page.

Did a deal where I added 5 qts and an oil filter. Did it twice with two different deals and filters. Brought the oil down to about $6.39 a qt. I’ll see if I can return the random filters I don’t care about once they arrive. $80 total. I made sure to get the random filters for my other vehicles...

Just a theory - Finally saw a real picture of a 2023 BW, and not a digital render, and there was NO rear "BLACKWING" badge. Wouldn't it really be a shame if all the produced 2023's were sitting in MP status for the new BW badge?

"Blackwing" badge... For some reason the V looks crooked.

My thoughts after seeing this: "No way my status changed, right? Maybe the EDD shifted left?! Nope, still bayed..."

I frame all my cars window stickers. I also keep their license plate when I sell it. Now I have a wall of window stickers and plates to remember them by. I think it’s pretty cool, especially in 50 years.

I agree, the new Ohio plates are hideous. They were plain before, but in a good way (at least not ugly). Now i hate to even consider getting new Ohio plates.

As someone who has their fair share of customers for these cars, would you ever be willing to talk to GM about the very things you mention in your own post? You mention how known “flippers” will be ignored. So if I’m in the market for a 5, but want a 4 to hold me over, I now have to be “afraid”...

What’s the name of the dealer. I can tell you how many they got

Is this a good choice of shirt for my delivery day?

I am trying to look into some aftermarket steering wheel options. It appears as though the CT4 and CT5 share steering wheels. The Blackwings have the special V mode toggle and handling mode selector, otherwise all sub-models are the same. For those of you with a CT4 AND a CT5, are all the...

When i would change the oil in my C7 Grand Sport I would visit the local Wally-World and buy some 0W-40 (2x5 qt jugs) and an M1-113A filter. All in, including a can of break cleaner and roll of paper towels, i was still under $75. Well worth it to me to change my own oil every 3,500 miles...

Not quite the same, but is it weird to say I truly miss my 2018 Focust ST (I drove RS's but couldnt justify the $18k price difference). It had every option available - heated leather recaros, heated steering wheel, wonderful headlights that turned with the car, got 30 mpg even with a tune and...

At the top of this thread, regardless of what page number you are on, you will see a post from Rob. It will say "Blackwing Order Tracking System" in red bold text. Click that (or my hyperlink) and scroll down. Find your username and associated order. Done. Rob graciously updates every few days...

Honestly, i think you made out of that one pretty well. I had an allocation and would have had a 2022 myself, but timing was early so i told the dealer to kick me back to the end. That ended up being a $7k mistake...

I, low key, kind of like sitting in low speed traffic in the slow lane to see all the passers reactions to the car. But i will admit, not as fun to sit and wait after a 14 hour day at work.

I know production whoa's are not universal. But, i take away two things form this post. 1. It seems Cadillac is taking their mess-up serious and warrantying the work (although it still sucks to be out of the car). 2. I will be doing a thorough inspection of mine on delivery day. Please keep us...
