Great video......we appreciate it. I was at a Cadillac dealership about an hour ago and sat in one. Good lord what a nice vehicle. If someone can deal with a smaller one, the CT-4 Blackwing would make this more palatable.
I think this is a brilliant video series to do. This will help me justify getting a CT5-V to my girlfriend once my Shelby GT350 is paid off. The only constructive criticism is I would recommend that you proof read the video. For example, you stated early in the video that the numbers would be based off of the "10 speed manual transmission" when you meant to say "10 speed automatic transmission." Another discrepancy I saw was a photograph of the Bose audio when taking about the AKG audio system. I know this was an honest mistake, but with how horrific the internet is, I would just give it a watch through before posting to avoid nasty comments as you continue to grow your channel, especially as a woman talking about cars. One thing I would like to see is perhaps a "base" specification of a car, and then one with all of the bells and whistles. I know that if you want a fully loaded CT5-V Blackwing, it can be an almost 20k difference from MSRP, and how your annual salaries would have to change in order to secure the car. I also want to add that your video was the first to come up after searching Cadillac CT5 V Blackwing into YT, so keep up the good work! I think this channel will provide great insight into making an informed buy decision for a lot of buyers!
Thanks for this comment! I appreciate the insight and well thought out. Thank you for taking the time on this. The transmission was definitely misspoken on my behalf so thank you for pointing that out. I also really appreciate knowing where my videos place when y’all are searching. So that’s great to know! I am always welcoming constructive criticism and will keep working to make each video better! Thanks for supporting!
The reality for most (not all) is that the Cadillac CT5 V Blackwing is a "toy" for older car enthusiast, who have made it to a point in their life, where they can afford a fair weather car. This car is highly impracticle for your "only" car. Those summer only tires can not be used in the winter. So, three things here. 1. If you can not afford to "buy" this car (Tiny or no payment). It's not for you. 2. It's NOT a daily driver. 3. If you are going to spend more than 100 grand, go the extra mile and get it "loaded". Just check off all the boxes (good seats, data recorder, carbon ceramic brakes, etc). If you have to "budget" this car, it's not for you. Welcome to the club.
It's my daily. I have a second set of wheels with snow tires mounted. That said, I also don't live somewhere with lots of snow. Overall though, I would agree. It's a pretty safe guess that I'm in the minority to daily a 5BW. It's quite impractical and my fuel costs alone (about $500/month) are easily comparable to an entire monthly cost of a more economical daily. But the engine and fuel costs aside, it's still just a CT5, which makes a pretty good daily!
@@Luckimee as the amount of the car increases, the percentage of the down payment should increase as well so if the car was 100k i would put down 45k-65k, if one can’t make a down payment like that COMFORTABLY they can’t afford a 100k car & should get their priorities aligned.

Girlfriend? Wow lucky girl
Before I even get to this video I want to say thank you for making this video!!! You're amazing! ❤
I love that coffee cup ☕️
You should make this more about net worth than income. I make more than this and there is no way I’d have a payment this big. Thank you Dave Ramsey!
Thus has probably been asked before, but do you do other videos other than for cars? Your info is dead on and very helpful and informative.
Your awesome!!!!
Thank you! Appreciate you supporting my videos!

@@thetravissgot me thinking …
Love your content
whoever would put down 10k on an 100k car can’t afford it, get a cheaper car.
What should you put down?

Cents not cent. It’s plural. Sorry it was a good video just that part drove me crazy.
Thanks for saying that, the cent part was getting annoying, cents!!
More videos!
Definitely more coming! Thanks for watching!
