This is probably not going to be a popular opinion on a Hellcat forum but I think that the Blackwing looks the best!

It's something about those Cadillac lights that remind me of automotive jewelry! Cadillac lighting is the American version of Audi, who also does Fantastic lighting (better performing than Cadillac lighting though especially the Matrix LED stuff)!

The Caddy driver said that the BW was the best because it had a manual trans and that was probably fun on the track but it's what got him taken to Gapplebee's in the drag race (that and the RE just plain out powered the BW. The IS500 didn't stand a chance against the two American rides).

I agree that the Caddy is a top notch car. What bothers me about this video is these guys can’t drive. The last video with a HC they made was terrible and they are horrible drivers.

Black wing is a bad machine but about as impossible to get as a new Z06.

What they didn’t say is black wing is about as impossible to get as a new Z06. At least a jail break is possible to buy without crazy markups.

A guy I work with ordered a new Blackwing back in January, at that time the dealer told him 6 months. Unfortunately he passed away suddenly a month ago before his car ever even had a chance to arrive! This also proved my reasoning for ordering my SS, which should arrive any time (window sticker was online this morning)

You only live once! If you can,,,enjoy the crap out of it!!

I have seen a Blackwing at the local dragstrip and the car is impressive to say the least. I do not believe the car is stock though because it runs low to mid 10's and sounds great. It is in need of a driver mod though because it looks like the guy is trying to break the car every trip down the track with his bad launches and some missed shifts

If i could actually even order a ct5-v blackwing I would have it over my 2022 HC in a heartbeat. But they are non existent up here in Canada, shit even the one they used in the video was from the states!

Not from me. The Blackwing is sick! If they were available at the time I picked up my Red Eye and wasn't a freaking $120k+ I would have one. I just ran a CarGurus and there only 2 near me in an 200mi radius and both are north of 130k.
Shhhh. don't tell no body else. LOL

@Unavowed If I remember correctly the one near me is running low to mid 10's in the 130's. If I see him at the next test and tune I will record one of the runs.
That's a Very Respectable trap speed!

Picked up my 5 Blackwing on Wednesday. Almost 1 year to the date I ordered it. Yep, it’s a 6 speed manual.

Congratulations! That's a Beautiful car! How do you like it so far?

If you don't answer, it's probably because you're out driving and enjoying your Blackwing! :)
