[@jjj75656]

Man I love blackwings, they sound great

[@craigwilliams1073]

I love the "V" series!!!!!! Manual all the way!!!!

[@cbennii7]

Absolutely amazing vehicle.

[@dodgers8one8]

Awesome review bro. Manual car is the best way to go on that car. Can’t wait for the 2025 review on the blackwing manual.

[@johnbehneman1546]

Great video Ben, I love everything

[@micahrichey5335]

What an awesome car! Way to go Cadillac!

[@1aspirefit]

I love the black, blue and orange CT5 Vs!

[@esteban1487]

What a beast!

[@randyking1715]

GREAT vehicle basically a four door Corvette or ZL1. Had one which for some crazy I sold. The noise from the exhaust on the manual is over the top. Ben now I am going to have to find a new one!

[@clubracer6]

What did you sell it?

[@randyking1715]

@@clubracer6 it was a 2022, which I bought Jan 2022 Only complaint was it did not have an exterior V badge. I paid $91k for it and sold for $90k in June 2023 with 11, 650 miles.

[@clubracer6]

@@randyking1715 Nice! I feel the earlier ones had less issues. What are your must have options this time around?

[@Ramfighter16]

Thank you for treating the Blackwing with respect and not exceeding the break-in redline. There have been some real morons on other reviews blowing through that just to show off thus voiding the warranty after the dealer was nice enough to let them review it.

[@Z06ified]

Fun fact: the computer lowers the redline during the break in period so you can’t exceed it unless you screw up a downshift into 1st in which case break in will be the least of your concerns. I can’t remember what the break in redline was, but it was around 4,500-5,000 rpm IIRC. After 500 miles, the full redline becomes available, and is displayed on the gauge cluster.

[@edwinecute7748]

Can’t wait for the 2025 blackwing review 🏎️

[@thebaycuddy]

Wow look at the front seats, definitely a monster car

[@MrGuanaco]

Great vehicle, great review!!!

[@supabuck2822]

Im really liking this, may be time to trade in the whipple mustang GT. Hard to get a kid in the back seat.

[@1aspirefit]

great choice!

[@BIG570S]

Love mine in 10 speed auto…The torque combined with amazing gearing and responsiveness of the auto is intoxicating. Amazing daily driver. Also love my 6spd manual heads/cam C6 Z06.

[@jayraider521614]

Damn this is a good looking car!!!!

[@johnbehneman1546]

Thank you so much

[@2024_Edge]

Can you do a video on a 2024 CT4 V Blackwing

[@BenHardyCars]

I’ll try to find one

[@marcv.5574]

So I'm paying double because of the 6.2L compared to the twin turbo 3.0L?

[@sonicmoj1]

There's no comparison between these two. That CT4 TT 3.0L is like driving a Pontiac Fiero. The 6.2 nearly 700 Hp is what is all about. Trust me I've driven both and I would pay the price difference in a 6 speed manual.

[@johnbehneman1546]

Suggestion: Turbocharged LV3 motor with a T5 manual transmission

[@johnbehneman1546]

Suggestion: RECARO BUCKET SEATS

[@stevearmstrong4561]

I have the automatic crossover..Still a beast.Tailgater? No broblemo..Leave them in a cloud of dust..🤣

[@jcastro364]

Does Escalade V and the CT5 V have the same engine?

[@BenHardyCars]

Yes

[@GATORBAITS99]

No. The Blackwing has a 1700cc super charger and the Escalade V has the 2650cc supercharger. 668 hp versus 682 hp.

[@johnbehneman1546]

Suggestion: 2025 Buick Grand National

[@johnbehneman1546]

Suggestion: Real Leather interior option

[@blackeneth3449]

The interior is full of real leather

[@larrycarter3285]

Gonna have 2 trade in my xt5. Dang

[@johnbehneman1546]

Suggestion: Carbon Fiber Diet

[@esteban1487]

I'm only 90 grand light. Front me, Ben? 🤣

[@DejonBuick-jl2fx]

Does the caddy black wing have the same engine has the Chevy ZL1 Camaro.???.

[@BenHardyCars]

Yes

[@G-Rated]

No, the Cadillac’s V8 is actually *hand built* it didn’t come off an assembly line like the Chevys Ford’s and Dodges y’all love to compare it to. 🤡

[@1aspirefit]

ill trade in my V2 and I'll only have 80k remaining balance 😅

[@ldmtag]

The logo looks like VEE

[@Pgd10020]

220?!?!?!?!

[@GrippingLipsFishing]

3rdish

[@mattr6334]

If someone gave you 100K and said you can either buy a 392 Wrangler or that black wing Cadillac, which would you take?

[@BenHardyCars]

Wrangler, but because I love off-roading

[@benjaminbrown7127]

Does this have the same engine as the Chevrolet equinox? 🤣

[@cw4623]

Steering is WAY too heavy. Also: the price is INSANE. BONKERS.

[@TrazimDollare1982]

GM Product No Thanks! Pass

[@1aspirefit]

why you watching gm reviews 😅

[@user-sd8ec5xx5h]

Because he a troll

[@VeNoM_ACR]

I always watch videos of cars and products I have no interest in 😂 what a 🤡
