Yes! That was initially very confusing haha. I have been trying unsuccessfully to drag information out of my dealer about an alleged order they have. So I keep checking for new VIN's hoping to line up the specs they gave me on the order with the "dealer to whom delivered" on the window sticker...

I was looking very seriously at one of those before I realized I needed the CT5 blackwing. How do you like it and how's the build quality?

Question about the registry: Apologize if I missed this somewhere, but when does a car get added to the registry? Currently, #118 is the highest serial number shown (CT5-V) and I assume the table will grow as more cars are built, but what is the threshold for when a car gets entered into this...

ah ok, so just if you think you’ll need to transport in the future they are good to have. Like keeping the shipping bolts on a front load washer in case you move in the future. Thanks!

Ok, thanks. I’ve seen that in other vehicles, but what’s the motivation for keeping them after delivery?

Sorry for my ignorance on this, but what are the spacers used for?

I’m still trying to find a GM part number for the CT5-V Tech Bronze wheels so I can order them separately as a second set. If anyone finds out, please let me know!

The same person talked with me about that too. He said he could enter an order for one and said that if I wanted to go that route, he’d be glad to do it but would speak with his rep to get some kind of estimate on delivery prior (once I tell him I’d like to proceed with an order). So he had no...

So I wonder which ”portion” of Lansing Grand River will be continuing to run? I was on the phone today with the owner of a Cadillac dealership and was asking about what else but the Blackwing, and was told the following (paraphrased): The factory will be shutting down for CT5 production until...

Awesome. The black looks sooo good, especially from the front and rear views. Congrats!

I feel like the hybridization/electrification are going to make performance numbers as we know them much less important (or impressive). So having a "special" car may not mean having the fastest car any longer, but rather one that connects with you in other ways. A big part of the appeal of a...

Ahh ok, so I’d have better luck at a larger dealer or at least one with a known allocation if I want a prayer of ever seeing this car?

So if I just decide to place an order at another dealer and get exactly what I want, does that come out of their allocation (if any) or does the order go right in? I realize it may be a while until it gets built, but since I don’t have a timeline on “my” car or really any proof that an order is...

ugh. Based on that, I guess I'm going to keep shopping around as a backup option. They seem to be above board with me so far, but I've been wrong before. Is there some reason they wouldn't want to share an order number for an allocation as opposed to a customer order (like there's some...

Thanks. So I get the VIN part, that makes sense. The order number part is weird to me. They were able to give me the complete spec with all the colors, options, etc. I was also told that the config can not be changed at this point. What you're saying makes sense (i.e. they didn't actually place...

I am first in line on one of my local dealer's two allocations. They have no timeline on when either of their two will be built/delivered other than "my" car is about a month behind the first. What's weird (or maybe it's normal, I am very new to this) is they do not yet have a VIN number for...

Seriously. Some life goals right there.

Will do! I mentioned it on a call with my dealer this morning so they are going to look into it as well.

Anyone have a part number for the bronze wheels on their own? My car is coming with the standard wheels and I can't change it at this point, but I am considering buying the bronze wheels to use with summer tires. Also would love to see a pic with Black Raven and those wheels; think that would...

Hi All, New to the forum and just saying hello. I'm in central PA and have a "first-in-line" spot locked up on a dealer allocation for a CT5-V Blackwing at MSRP. They have provided me the full spec on the car but will not give me a build code. It sounds like they have it but are unwilling to...
