Cadillac CT5 V Blackwing
Order went in today. Dealer thinks with a little luck a February delivery might happen. During the long drive to the dealers my plan was to order the M6. But my shoulder began to act up and reminded me in no uncertain terms the A10 would be a more drivable choice. The ZL1 will stay until the Blackwing is delivered or someone offers me a price I can't turn down.
A10 Satin steel High performance seats/ black and black Red calipers PDR Rear mirror camera

9 minutes in - 624 on dyno, can't wait to see this in a ZL1 for 2023!

If I have the money I'd take the Black Wing if given the choice. You get a Sedan with more room AND a very fast car as well.

Hard to believe it makes that much power on the dyno... that would be 50 WHP more than a stock ZL1... Yeah it's rated at 18 HP more but that doesn't account for everything...No chance GM has that engine making 700 flywheel HP and is just calling it 650...

Nice if you want to spend over $100,000 or more on a Cadillac. I do like that new orange color though and wouldn’t mind having a new ZL1 in that color but it won’t happen.

I'm on the list at my dealership for a C8 Z06. So that is my only goal right now. But if that falls thru then I will for sure be considering a CT5-V Blackwing. Or a Superstock. Or a TRX.

I'm salivating over a C8 Z06. The Blackwing does absolutely nothing for me, but I can appreciate why people like it.

Considering the average LT4 in the ZL1 is making ~550-570 rwhp, 620 would be a nice bump |
