The Blackwing Spotting Thread

[Dirkbg]

The five parked in a row (from right to left) are my Shadow Metallic 2022 CT-4V BW, then another Columbus Chapter Cadillac Club local member with his 2011 manual CTS-V in Black Diamond, then a new member from Dayton in his black 2024 CT5-V BW, then forum member captchunk25 in his Electric Blue CT4-V BW, and our CC chapter president and forum member LasGas with his Blaze Orange 2022 CT4-V BW. His is the car that has the Corsa exhaust installed with our visit to their HQ last Fall. The other black CT5-V BW was just a fella who drove in as we were parking, and we waved him over to join our Cadillac contingent. The five of us met nearby and drove in together. We saw your 5 BW and another Blaze Orange CT4-V BW (auto) parked across from you. Too bad we didn't get to meet.

Drop me a message when you guys are meeting. I've seen maybe 3 Blackwings in SW OH. Even at local C&Cs there is 1 regular with a CTSV and no one outside of enthusiasts knows what it it.

Yup, that's the way it is with BW's @ C&C they just walk on past it..lol It's such a good car it even goes unnoticed at car shows. Perfect for me!

We've been kicking around the idea of a C&C in Dayton.

101 NB near Cloverdale, 5/16. Saw this Rift with Bronze, guessing '22 model. Not a fan of white tones on cars but this is a really nice combo, particularly with the tint color tone (bronze)

Saw a white CT5BW Hennessey/H1000 drive by me in the Estero/Fort Myers area, anyone here? If so, let's meet up sometime, I'd love to see it up close.

I passed a white 5 this morning coming in to the office then again when I ran for some lunch. I was in my 4. Elk Grove area. YOHB?

 

[RDATLTE]

Today, at Eurosunday at Sierra College in Rocklin, CA, a black fully loaded 5BW with an auto trans. Are you on here?

Black with silver wheels on US1 northbound at 421 just north of Sanford, NC. NC tags CBM 8295. I was following you in my (wife's) silver Genesis GV80 until I exited at the 540. Couldn't really hear the exhaust so I think you had it in Stealth mode. You here?

I've passed this guy at least a dozen times over the last few weeks. Unfortunately we never seem to be traveling the same direction. When I passed today he was in a downshift and I got to hear all the burbles of the 5. It sounded great!

Is your office at your house? Window from your kitchen looking out to your drive way?

Didn't you see the raccoon warning icon pop up on the dash?

Honestly sorry you had to deal with that.

lol I can only dream of "working" from home. Besides, my BW's are in the garage.

I've been looking for one of these babies in the wild since they were launched. I live in the Captial District of New York (Albany area) and there's not that many around apparently. After over 3 years, I haven't seen another CT5 Blackwing other than at the dealership, and Spring Mountain...that is until today.

Where do I spot one finally? A block away from my house on the next street over! I snapped a picture as I went by, then went around the block to go back and talk to the owner, and it was gone. Oddly enough, it had New Jersey plates.

This is me lol. That's my parents’ house and I stay with them when I travel up there for work. My mom mentioned you stopped by.

Spotted a blue ct4 blackwing going south on Dallas parkway and crossing I believe it was Parker road or Park boulevard in West Plano, Texas and I forgot to take a picture but the gentleman hit the gas and the gear changes were awesome. I'll try to get better at posting pictures. I think this was yesterday or day before yesterday.
