    Did you get 20” HRE 305s? Got pics? That design must look awesome on blackwing.

    How is the CT5V BW in mundane driving?

    it really is fun and engaging just cruising around especially with the 6 speed. In mundane driving, I always use the V mode button with all settings maxed out (exhaust, steering, braking) except suspension in middle setting…so you still get all the pops from exhaust, tight steering, and a not...

    CT4-V CT4-V BW vs Camaro ZL1 vs C8 Z51

    The 2019 ZR1 actually led me to the CT5 blackwing. I was originally looking for a 2019 manual sebring orange ZR1 and the lack of clean examples at reasonable prices led me to the newer and more practical blackwing with similar engine and better 6 speed (as opposed to 7 speed manual).

    GM Press Release: Introducing the 2025 Cadillac CT5-V and CT5-V Blackwing

    Also came from an older Audi (2008 RS4) to the ct5 blackwing and am really enjoying the transition. The extra back seat room is definitely a plus.

    CT5 2024 production end date?

    Your dealer has to get an allocation first…do they sell a lot of blackwings at your dealer? If they get an allocation, are you their only order?

    2022 Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing Collector Series 6-Speed…..BAT

    Great buy on a well-optioned collector series car with striking color and low miles, and in excellent condition with ppf as well. Enjoy it…you don’t even have to do the painful 500 mile break in!

    New here, CT5-V BW

    Glad you got it. I thought about buying that one and walking away from my ordered one because yours had every option I wanted and with the new msrp price delta from 22 to 24 including increased price of some options and the discount buying used, it was actually a big difference. When I picked up...

    Cadillac Smart Driver and Privacy Concerns

    I wonder how it switched to on again for so many people…I also switched it to opt out again which I did a month ago as well and surprised to have to do it again today

    CT5-V EQ settings

    I have higher end systems in other cars (23 speaker signature meridian system in a rover) and although not as good, the AKG is decent. It also depends on source…satellite radio not as clear as iPhone. Deep and low bass is not as strong as other systems but otherwise I think it is sufficient.

    New PPF and Black trim work let me know your opinions.

    That looks great…the black badges and emblems, window tint, black side mirror inserts, wheels, and exterior carbon fiber all tie in together so nicely and pops on the red paint.

    5BW daily driver

    Really enjoying this ride as a DD. No complaints except turning radius which doesn’t come up often. Very comfortable and fun…decent sound system (better when playing iPhone music vs Sirius Xm). I wasn’t planning on driving in winter but lack of snow and moderate temps have enabled its use…some...

    CT5-V Monochrome badges?

    Savagecadillac.com should have what you’re looking for…I got all my badges and emblems from there and the black “blackwing” ones from 404parts. Both places were excellent to deal with.

    Used Value Trend

    Are you going to sell the R8? That’s a beautiful car…stasis supercharged right?

    What did you all drive back in the day?

    Had a mid 90s (1995) impala SS and also later a 1991 Syclone (unique Marlboro 1 of 10 edition). Back in a GM vehicle with Blackwing after long hiatus and loving it.

    Aftermarket or Hacked Remote Start - Manual Transmissions

    I’ve been driving manuals for 20+ years and always leave in neutral with parking brake on a flat surface. Except when parking uphill or downhill, why leave the car in gear?
