I bought a 2023 CT4 Blackwing with the Watkins Glen package yesterday and the manual trans. . I paid $4K under sticker. I came into the dealer to look at a CT5 Blackwing and left with this car. I’m a Porsche guy but wanted to be part of owning the last V8 manual sedans. After test driving both I realized the CT4’s power was much more usable and balanced. The CT5 is overpowered and can’t really take advantage of that power because it’s real wheel drive and it just sits and spins. The sound is amazing yes, but if I was going to be in a chase scene, I’d take the CT4. It’s way more precise isn’t trying to kill you at every turn. 😜. The other point is that I had an amazing experience at the dealership because I felt appreciated by the staff there which is what is missing at Porsche and BMW these days.

Drove one of these with the manual while waiting for my G80 M3 manual allocation. After driving both, the CT4-V BW is the superior car. The upgraded sport seats in the Cadillac are way better than the basic seats in the G80, but not on the same level as the BMW carbon buckets. The Cadillac's interior design, fit and finish and material quality is not quite on the level of the M3 but it's WAY better than I expected. Obviously the manual ICE cars are going away but hopefully Cadillac continues with hitting home runs. Edit: wanted to add, the dealership experience commentary in the video is absolutely spot on. The 2 Cadillac dealers I visited when inquiring about this car treated me like I was wasting their time and one wouldn't even let me sit in the car on the showroom floor.

It was an understated, but fancy showroom, and the sales people were well-dressed and well-informed. Maybe it depends on the dealer and its location.

I just went and got the first service and even the service center was great. The waiting room was nice and comfortable too. Free drinks, large TV's everywhere and free wifi.

Cadillac was one of the first to eliminate physical controls for touch buttons with CUE back in 2014 and they learned their lesson from that.

It’s not an analog driving experience but it’s not that far off of one. There needs to be a bit of driver input to actually driving a car. If not you are just a passenger. Driving should be fun if you are a driver. If not get an EV. Just look at F1 cars of the 60’s to mid 90’s. No paddle shifts, traction control, abs, etc. I’m getting one of these. I drove my friends CT5 V Blackwing for a couple days, and yes it’s got the balls of King Kong, but it’s also bulky and I don’t know just lumpy. I want nimble, agile, and fun to drive. Dumb me I know. They don’t make these any more. Maybe I should just keep my Mazda Speed3, and 85 RX7 GSL-SE. but my wife needs a new car and this thing made her say this is what I want. She also wanted the Speed3, and got it. Got to listen to your woman, because she has more sense. Plus any girl that rides her own motorcycle is a special girl, and needs to be listened to. That’s just my experience, I could be wrong…

​@@Swiggityswagger Actually sat in one a little while ago. Not really impressed by the interior quality. The CT4 actually seemed nicer to me, pretty much a step up in fact. I tend to focus on the center console, door cards, and touchpoints. Maybe the overall design is a little "dated," but sometimes oldschool is the best school (for me). What do you think of the Audi's interior quality?

Great review! Glad this car works well on the street too. People also say this car is a better at the limit drive than the CTS-V CT5-VBW because its lighter.

This is definitely a car I would love to own and drive. I love this size better than the CT5 and wish they would have put the standard LT1 motor in it but it does sound good for what it is though. Love that blue but not a fan of the white seats.

If your main gripe is the size of the infotainment, we have very different priorities. If you find the rear seat space a deal breaker, again, different priorities. If you cross shop other sedans that are auto only like M340i or IS500, different priorities. A low option 6mt 4BW is hard to beat and has very few direct peers. The 5BW has extra power that you can't exploit on the street. On the track, the 5 pulls away hard on the straights and then the 4 reels it back in on the turns. First hand experience. The G80 M3 is over $10k more, I'll let the styling debate slide. First hand experience, the G80 is less of a drivers car, feels less special but the S58 is a more characterful engine. The Tremec shifts much better though closing up some drivetrain gap.

The CT4 definitely looks better than the M3 if nothing else. I do wish it had a roomier back seat, but other than that it seems amazing. Glad to see Mark wasn't a 'perpetual disappointment' today! Hahaha

*) "professional-grade disappointment". 😉 Possibly referred to his ability to convey his disappointment with a car in a very elaborate and convincing way, because I don't think Jack wanted to say that he is being a disgrace.
