Hi fellow Blackwing people,
I have been hesitant to write in because I know many of you are still waiting on orders to br delivered with TPW in early 2022. I put a deposit on a dealer inventory car that was suposed to be built in mid nov. 2021. That date was set back numerous times. It checked most of the boxes except for the std interior { I would have preferred the mid level interior}. The dealer reluctantly agreed to MSRP if I would turn my leased 2019 CTS-V to them. When the vin number was finally determined in early feb. 2022 they presented my final lease numbers . Not good, the monthly pmt. would go up apron. 650.00. The dealer wanted me to turn in my 2019 CTS-V and allow{lease residual 53,000} and I wanted trade in which would allow me lease equity{B.B. trade in}. He would have made apron. 35,000 upon resale of my 2019.
On the Cadillac Blackwing build site you can build your dream car and Cadillac offers to locate the same as or similar car. I checked it out and Bingo, the was the exact car I wanted on the rails headed for a dealer in Lancaster Cal.I contacted them and made my deal-MSRP, no add ons, ad allowed me 85000 for my 2019 CTS-V! Same down pmt . and pmt went up 3.00 per month. The car s/n N0810342 was built on 1/12/2022 and delivered the dealer on 2/14/2022. picked it up the next day and told my Bride it was her Valentines day present, that got me some serious extra points!
I am not a gambler or unusually lucky guy but everything became golden when I mentioned Tall Steve. They had heard of him-some kind of secret code word with GM. They Told me that the word on the street was that Tall Steve had been recently elected to be the Vice President Pro Temp of the greater rural Texas Hosewives protective league ss well as the master Goat Herder. Who Knew !
