[OwensTX]

Cadillac still not acknowledging the software update issue...but some good news that they indicate shipping before EOY.

About time there is some official announcement...

CT5 BW order in with these constraints:

I ordered Drift 6MT. I had to do CF1 and CF2 together, otherwise I would have just done CF1. Track Pack was constrained.

When were you able to put that order in?

November, alleged build for January.

Nice. I picture a poor guy in a blizzard going around with a laptop to update cars one-by-one...

Poor Santa is trying his best...

The 5BW manual never had a volume knob by the shifter

It had one on the dash. The 25 manual has no knob at all, is the point.
Which is shite for $100k sports sedan, frankly.

Another reason to dislike giant screens. Apparently going beyond 12 inches of real estate means it's impossible to put a button in.

Must be another law of thermodynamics or something.

 

[beamon]

it is also nice to have a physical Home Screen button under the display which I’m pretty sure is gone with the new screen. I noticed it when dealer gave me a loaner xt4

Sounds like my 23 manual just went up in value by at least $10k…

That's one expensive knob.

In other news - my car scheduled for production this week was produced.

Mine was built too, supposedly back in late September...it is a slow process:

For all the Canadians out there, the Build and Price is finally up on Cadillac Canada. I hadn't been to the dealer to confirm pricing changes but the car is now over 7k more expensive.

112k.6k starting vs the 105.3k last year. Or about 22k more expensive than 2022.

Options are the same price as before and the Precision package is 20.7k.

I wasn't expecting a 7k price jump considering the price only went up 2.1k in the US.

I think the adjustment is partly to align the price a little more closely with the exchange rate.
My guess is that even with the increase, a new Blackwing still costs significantly less here than in the US after converting our Canadian dollar prices to US dollars.
Hence they will probably continue to make Canadian buyers agree not to sell to the US for… what is it/was it, 1 year/10,000 kms?

 

[Exia]

I never even singed a document to not resell my '23.

You are correct that if you convert it the price is significantly cheaper by about 18k.

Cadillac website showing lots of ‘25 V’s as in transit now.

I see one going to the dealer I placed my order at (not my car). Will custom orders show up on the website as in transit? Or will they not show since they are tied to a specific customer?
