The Blackwing Spotting Thread

It looks IMSA with the sticker on the door. Most likely maverick.

Spotted this 4BW in Berkeley Springs, WV today, on my way back home from work trip to VA. Couldn't tell if was the Maverick Frost but def had the cool carbon bits.

Yup, looks like a Sebring Edition.

I have a Sebring too (not this one) and considering de badging like this one... looks super stealthy

Spotted new a White CT4-V Blackwing in traffic on 101 in San Jose today. Exchanged waves (hopefully he saw mine).

Spotted a "MADLION" Electric Blue CT5VBW on the 15 south this morning. Beautiful spec, all badges blacked out.

I was going to lunch yesterday and pulled up behind a newer Miata at a stop light. The owner kept looking at my car in the rear view mirror and his son in the passenger kept looking over his shoulder at me. He gunned it around the corner a bit and when I had an open lane I passed him at about 80 on the way to the next red light. I got big thumbs up from them. I love how under the radar this car is and if you know, you know.....

THIS^^^ is the true beauty of this car! I was talking to a guy who has a C8, and he hates the attention......and the "old, white man" (his words) stereotype.

Driving home last night through SF after date night with the wifey… saw a matte black BW (couldn’t tell if it was a 4 or 5 cuz of the dark) semi-double parked in kind of the Tenderloin part of the city. Pretty sure dude was showin it to the homies. There was a crew kickin it there, and it damn sure isn’t a place to leave a car like that unattended.

I wanted to stop and check it out, but also didn’t want to hold up city traffic. Just told the wife what it was and moved along.

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.

Yet to see one in the wild other than a ct4v BW a year ago.

I got my '23 5BW from Otto Cadillac in Jan '23 after placing my order 12 months before. You? They were pretty good to me there. At the time with most dealers charging a +$10k mark-up, I got mine $2.5k over MSRP. My sister lives in Loudonville and she has leased an Escalade from Otto every 3 years for the last 15.

I got my 2024 5BW from Otto in March of 2024. I placed my order in May of 2022. I was promised when I placed the order they wouldn't charge me above MSRP. They kept their promise. I leased a 2013 CTS-V from them back in the fall of 2012, this is my first Cadillac that I bought new. I would guess mine took so long due to constraints on the Carbon Fiber 1 & 2 packages.
