Anybody heard if 2025 CT5-V BW Gets New Seating Options?

[andyecon]

I love my CT4BW but will need more backseat room in the next year, so have put my name on the list for a CT5BW allocation. My ideal build would be 6-speed in Typhoon Metallic with cognac seats. I see that the 2024 CT5-V non-BW has that color seat as an option and the BW has top-tier seats with black seating and tan bolsters... any grumblings that they would bring the cognac seats to the BW?

There is no cognac seat colour. The Blackwing is called natural (same as the C8). The non Blackwing is called Sedona Sauvage.

The 2025 will be keeping the current interior options, so you will have jet black, sky cool grey (also known as white, also a C8 colour) and natural (also a C8 colour).

The natural is the entire seat, not just the bolsters.

What do you mean?
This the natural tan, as in my new 24, and as it’s always been:

I forget what this was called. This was from my 22 and it was the highest level seating trim at the time.

Does that have carbon fiber seat backs?
If not, I believe that was a mid-level seating option.

Lol… although you believe it to be a mid-level seating option, you’d be wrong. The quilted seats, that were pictured above my reply were the mid-level seats.

No CF option for seatbacks on a Blackwing 4 at the time, 2022 model year. these were a $5000 upgrade, which were the highest level trim.

@Barstoolman1127 is showing top level 4BW seats in Natural Tan....no CF seatbacks. Wasn't available. You can get CF seatbacks in the special editions (ie: IMSA, Road Atlanta, etc)

@T.O.Blackwing is showing top level 5BW seats in natural Tan which have CF seatbacks.

EDIT: Someone (OP?) mentioned Sangria. They are only available in the regular CT4 and regular CT4V. CT5 and CT5V had the option with the Premium package of Sedona Sauvage

 

[Barstoolman1127]

Oh yeah,…. As you can see on the window sticker, these were the seats called natural tan with black accents. The C8 does have an option for a fully natural tan seat without any other color accents.

Different cars, different seats.
Yours is a CT4, mine is a CT5 and the ones I have were the top trim level in 22 and 23 and continued to be in 24.
Hard to get with carbon fiber in 22 and 23 but some people did get them with that, others with the carbon fiber "delete" option (which did save you money).
If this thread is meant to be about just CT4s, my apologies for any confusion I may have caused.

 

[Barstoolman1127]

Just to reiterate, carbon fiber seatbacks were not available in 2022 model year for the CT4 -4V Blackwing. They only came later,
Exclusively for the track models.

Just as a point of reference, if you did not get carbon fiber seatbacks on the CT5-V Blackwing, for the 22 model year, then, the top level trim level seats would’ve look like mine in natural tan

I believe you're correct. Those seats (CF on the 5) were on constraint quite a bit, so you either got them, or you didn't. If not, then you got the mid seat (on the 5), which is the top seat on the 4.

Carbon backed seats look tits. I contemplated my tint in the beginning because of them.

Contemplated your tits or your tint?

Always contemplating tit's

Correct, I got the 4 and 5 confused.

Wish you could order the Sangria interior from the ct5v in the ct5v bw. Anyone know if it can be swapped in?

If money was no object you could order the seat skins from a GM parts store (if in stock) and have an upholstery shop install them. You cannot order a complete seat.

You would have to order complete interior door card for each door, probably $1k each. It may be cheaper to find a totaled car and buy some or all of the parts that way. You would be surprised what is being sold on eBay, CL and FB marketplace, I’ve seen whole interiors available for sale.
