    Great review Sarah! Today's Cadillacs are so under appreciated, wish they were selling more, instead of those crappy SUV's... Now you need to get your hands on the CT5V with the Blackwing V8, gossebumps guaranteed!

    • @EliteOnTheBeat
      @EliteOnTheBeat 2 года назад +2

      In terms of performance they're basically identical. Both cars go 0-60 in 3.4 seconds. Another thing to note is that these blackwings are currently sold out and they only made 250 this year of each model but more are on the way. Get these LEGENDARY/UNDERRATED cars while supplies last. 🤯

    Wow! Sarah, I think this review may just have the first "five" you've ever given to a car. I also happen to agree with you. That engine is probably one of the best V-6s ever made. With regard to that engine, you're right; the exhaust manifolds are cast into the cylinder heads. Keep up the great work.

I have a Chevy SS equivalent Holden Commodore SS-V Redline with an LS3 V8 and a manual Tremec TR-6060 gearbox, and it never gets old! This car would be a great substitute.

      Its basically the SAME exact car in terms of performance. BOTH cars go 0-60 in 3.4 seconds. The CT5 is definitely a little bigger of a car and sound a little better if your looking for that "v8 sound". Other than that they're pretty much IDENTICAL. In fact i've seen some CT4's take down CT5's. Just youtube it. 😏

Since you altered the format to do a more thorough inspection of the underside of these vehicles, I’m getting a much better sense of the engineering that goes into these builds and also the strength of the components. I know you can’t pack everything into 16+ minutes… curious for a little more feedback on the handling and fun in the twist and turns. Thanks as always! 👍👍👍

    • @itsavlife
      @itsavlife 2 года назад +8

      yeah, GM will produce a ton more than that...already have produced a ton more than that. The 500 for 2022 was just for the 250 Collector series of each model. They built more than the 500 Collector Series...just part of the regular allocation system. Caddy believes they will build a similar amount as the Gen3 CTSV and/or ATSV models.

      @@bluearcherx yeah, as part of the Cadillac V Club we have access to Cadillac leadership, we have discussed this with them a lot. It came up last week at the Rolex 24 in Daytona when we were meeting the Executive and Chief Cadillac Engineers. They stated they expect to build as many as they can/sell…similar to the last gen V.s. The 250 for each model is only the Collector Series. After that its the standard allocation process for regular builds. According to Cadillac V Net, which tracks builds, so far Cadillac has produced over 800 orders for 4/5V Blackwings for specific buyers, and over 400 dealer stock orders. That’s just a minimum number as the data can be delayed. These cars are super popular right now and Cadillac intends to sell a lot. Cadillac wouldn’t limit cars to 500 per year as there is not an economy of scale that way…and it’s too expensive to build a low run product line so expect they will sell tons by V Series standards

    Now you have to drive the CT5-V Blackwing - supercharged V8, 6 speed manual, similar suspension and braking goodies. Plus no-lift shifting 👍 The sad thing is, these are the last new gas powered Caddies; everything will be electric after these have ended production. Sure, the electrics will probably be even quicker, but I seriously doubt they can match the character of cars like these. And the noises! I'll miss the noises of exploding dinosaurs.

    Excellent review. I probably will buy this caddy rather than the over priced, butt ugly nosed and problem riddled m3.

    Seeing a new car these days with a manual transmission is like buying a car with a cassette tape deck! A dying breed indeed, so sad. The styling on this one wins hands down.

    What felt better; wave massage mode or the acceleration with this car?

    The whole review was very great. I went back and watched your braking and acceleration parts several times, I don't think I ever have seen you so excited about a car. Your reactions were priceless, This is a great car, Sarah you made it a great review.

    The look on your face is priceless. A pure joy to drive I would guess.
