2023 models get new blackwing badge on the trunk?

[John]

I debadged my car. I prefer the sleeper look. But I also debadge everything. It's easier for detailing, washing, drying etc.

GM listens to the journalists a little too much. They're the ones who complained about a lack of badging. If we're me, you wouldn't be able to get anything but a body color spoiler for anything but the Blackwing and you'd only be able to buy them for certain vins the same way they're doing the CF package parts.

 

[rdollie]

agreed

Ditto!

It's been debunked that CF parts can only be purchased with a CF VIN.

I'll be selling mine for 7k. If it doesn't go for asking I'll just keep it.

You better tell the buyer they are going to lose their warranty on that piece of plastic

 

[DustinEarnhardt]

Maybe I'm in the minority here, but I'd love to have one and plan on buying it as soon as it's available.

I'm not a big fan of badges, hopefully a pic becomes available soon.

Cadillac did have a lengthy Q&A with the V club and overall Cadillac owners in the suite in Jan at the Rolex and this was one of many topics. They did poll the crowd of enthusiasts and there was reasonable interest in having a distinguishing badge for BW owners so just wanted to point that out.

It may just be a shadow, but I'm wondering if there is a little badge under the V badge on the rear that just says blackwing, kind of like the one on the seats... so it may be pretty subtle.

The pic is too small to tell really and is low quality if you try to "enhance" it.

I stand corrected.

Are those the same folks who asked for stickers on the "track" editions?

Hey, I resemble that remark!

Somebody changed their name!

I am looking forward to the badge

This is on the GM company store, whatever the hell that site is, but has a lot of official BW merchandise. I have a feeling it will look like this. You can see the “Blackwing” border follows the V outline. The BW team did not want a badge, so I think it would probably be very subtle if they are forced to add one. This can’t be a coincidence this image shows up:

This checks out with what @Dubbed.theB shared

 

[Dubbed.theB]

Nice, I was right... Too bad it's getting removed with all the other badges anyways.

Similar to how BMW writes competition under the M3/5 etc.
