Mine has about 2900 miles on it. I just changed the oil prior to putting it away for the winter. While I had it up in the air to do the oil change, I noticed that there is a transmission oil leak. It’ll be making a trip to the dealer for a warranty repair in the spring to address the leak.
I had a CTS-V IMSA edition and compared to that, my CT5-V Blackwing has noticeably more tire noise. Besides the tire noise, my only other disappointment is the seats. The Recaro seats in the CTS-V were better in my opinion, anyway.
I have a Banks Engineering Pedal Monster, P/N 643111 for sale. I had this on my CT6-V and it definitely made the throttle more responsive. I traded the CT6-V for a CT5-V Blackwing so I no longer am using this. I have no idea what it's worth. It's complete including all cables and the...
Anyone know anything about Midwest City, Sooner Yard? When I input my VIN into the Jack Cooper Transport link, it comes back with the car being bayed with an origin of Midwest City, Sooner Yard. I did a search in Duck Duck Go and came up with nothing on that. Rob's update lists my car as...

I did a chat with Cadillac on 7/29. Spoke to Rayvon. According to him, the CT5-V Blackwing manual is not available electronically yet. He did not know when it would be available. One would presume that the cars are coming with an owner's manual. And, one would assume that the printed...

That's my mistake. I counted the VINs on Rob's list. There were 33 there. Obviously there have been more than 33 produced. Not everyone that purchased a car has asked Rob to follow their order. Sorry about the under count on the cars produced. Now, where the heck are our cars?
Rob has been so kind as to create and maintain the Blackwing Order Tracker. According to the order tracker, as of today, it looks like there have been about 33 Blackwings produced. All of them appear to be at status 3800, produced. Anyone have any idea why there is not one of them that has...
Just sold my 2019 ZR1. The plate on that was UDLOSE1. Couldn't get UDLOSE because it was already taken. Anyway, I'm thinking I'll transfer UDLOSE1 to the BW.

I agree, seems like marketing has been lacking. I wonder if it has anything to do with the semiconductor shortage and other parts shortages. Perhaps GM was not sure they'd be able to amass the necessary parts to build the cars when they said they would. So, why hype a vehicle that...
Anyone know if GM is quarantining the Blackwings that they've built for quality assurance review, etc? Is there anything special being done with these vehicles that would delay their delivery to the dealer? I'm just trying to figure out if I will be waiting 2 weeks for delivery or 2 months...
Does anyone know what governs whether a Blackwing is shipped via truck alone to the dealership or whether it is shipped via train and then truck. My dealership is about 325 miles from the assembly plant. Seems like it would take less time if shipped by truck directly to the dealership versus...
