    668 horsepower, a manual transmission and a proper luxury experience whenever you don't want to kill all tires. Does it get better than this?
    Shoutout to Alex from GoFast Photography for helping me film this video. He also has some amazing Blackwing photos, check them out here: instagram.com/gofast_photography/

      As you should. Ride the wheels off for us both lol. Can’t wait to get mines ! The blue has been worn out everyone got that color. Mines is black exterior with brown bucket seats and bronze wheels over the ceramic brakes. And carbon fiber package. And the 10 speed since everyone wanted the manual. I love being different

    The TC in the Caddy will let the car get way out of sorts before it intervenes. It makes the car feel much more sketchy than it actually is. My Blackwing feels less planted than my Hellcat Challenger, but once you're used to it, it's faster for sure.

    I have a 2022 CT5-V (Summit White) and a 2017 Chevy SS (Black), both automatics. Just bought a 2009 Pontiac G8 GXP 6 speed manual. All great fun cars. Last of the great ones. Nice video and yes, the CT5-V Caddy could be called the best car in the world. It's unbelievable what that car can do and how you can custom set it all up. Just amazing.

    My cousin worked the Assembly Line for GM during the mid 1980s. He said of all the GM cars assembled. That the Cadillac was given special treatment. GM wanted that car to arrive at the Dealership with little to none problems. Perfection was its model. Better assembled than all GM cars. And quality engine valves. Cadillac is still here. There's a reason for that. Isn't it?

    • @pepinocabron

      They are crap cars now. They are so way behind toyota and honda these days. In the 80s honda and Toyota were not popular cars so people didn't know how good they were. I guess it paid off to make things right from the beginning for honda and Toyota. It sure took more then 25 years for customers to realize how Good honda and Toyota are, but look at them now selling more then all of the other brands. Soon is going to be the German cars next going out of business (mercedez-bmw-audi. vw is already out). Mazda the third better company.

Everyone was freaking out at the time about how the Japanese were taking over the car market in the US. American cars were at their absolute lowest point in history and getting their butts kicked! This Blackwing is better than any car put out from Japan today. Same for the Corvette. Saying this as someone who has owned Acuras for the past twenty years.

    I’ve got a Gen 2 and it’s a decent car, but the difference between it and the BW5 is orders of magnitude, the brakes and handling of the BW5 is ridiculous. It’s not the quickest sled out 5here but from point A to point B, nothing with 4 doors is faster/quicker, unless you spend at least double. Plus it’s engaging and fun, without having it feel like you’re along for the ride as a result of the Nannie’s doing it all. The BW5 along with the new Z06 are the only current new cars I’d consider today, and of course a 911 Turbo S convertible

    • @GCCarsCA
      @GCCarsCA  ปีที่แล้ว

      Personally I'd prefer the Blackwing based on it's manual alone. That being said, the M5 is a fantastic car and I stands out in some ways that the Blackwing can't.

      I'm by no means perfect, but when the cameras are rolling I do tend to get a bit more focused on the shifting so that I don't mess up a take. And well the only way to get better is to drive, right? So I'm not sure what your objection is 😅

  • @johngalt5411
    @johngalt5411 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Don't think you went over the option list but from what I can tell this car would currently list in the U.S. for $102,980 (base w/delivery $93,390, seats $8090 & rims $1500).

    • @GCCarsCA
      @GCCarsCA  ปีที่แล้ว +4

      This Blackwing was fully optioned out. Just went to the US site to build a 2023 and the price came out at $117,565. As that seemed pretty high I went back to the Canadian site, turns out the 2023 Blackwing as specced is about $15,000 CAD more than last year...
      But even then it's still over $20,000 USD cheaper in a direct conversion compared to what it costs in the US. Certainly loosing the "bargain" appeal here, but it's still my favorite sedan on the market!
      Option List:
      - Black Raven Paint
      - Natural Tan w/ Black Interior
      - Carbon Fibre Package 1
      - Carbon Fibre Package 2
      - Tech Bronze Wheels
      - Tech Bronze Calipers
      - Parking Package
      - Dual Pane Sunroof

      I haven't driven the M5 (yet), but the Blackwing is more fun and engaging than the E63S while also riding better than the AMG. On the flipside, the Mercedes has a better interior and is faster in a straight line thanks to AWD. I'd pick the Caddy all day.

      I’m guessing bc those are closer in HP. The m3 is in the 400s. I’m also guessing bc the blackwing is closer to m3 in size but slightly larger so they would compare it to the e63 n m5.

    • @GCCarsCA

      As Daniel said cars mostly get compared by either performance or size, both of which pit the CT5 closer against the M5 / E63 then the M3 / C63. What helps the Blackwing, is that it extremely cheap for what it offers!

    Not the best car in the world, but it’s cool. I don’t like the rear end or the interior, but that V8 is glorious.

      I’ve driven a crap ton of cars. What car is better? I’ve not found it.
      It’s not perfect. True.

      @@cmweek19 I find the M5 and RS6 to be better. The car is fine, and it’s bad ass. I’m not running it down, but for my preference, it’s not the one I would buy. I currently have a 21 RS5 Sportback and I’m looking to go up a segment, so the CT5 Blackwing is one I drove. Again, bad ass car, just not sure on if I’d buy it yet. The RS7 is the one I’m mostly considering. No, it’s not as raw as the CT5, but I’m also 35 and prefer the all year drivability of the Audi. If we’re going to throw the “best car in the world” phrase around, it’s not this one. This car can’t compete with a Porsche 911 Turbo S for example. There are many other cars that would get that title way before a CT5.

      @@HPM2024 that makes sense.
      I ordered an RS5 but found it lacking in drivers car features. I found the M5 comp to be numb and only good at effortless speed and comfort. The blackwing is a better drivers sedan. It has more of the special things a driver wants in an amazing package. I’d modify the title to “best drivers sedan in the world”.

      "Best Car in the World" admittedly is a very subjective opinion. What I meant is that (for me) the Blackwing is best combination of everything you could need in a car: It's more practical than a 911, more engaging than BMW / Mercedes / Audi and has a very unique personality. Not to talk down on the amazing cars that the E63, M5, and RS6 are. Like you said, what constitutes the best car in the world is entirely down to your own set of preferences.

    Not to me , It has no features , Mine cost way less and still has a V8 and AWD and lots of features that this car does not have

    Dumb title. Cadillacs are fun cars but trash cars for longevity.
    You are better off with an Rs7 or E63 Type S.

      To be fair, the Germans aren't really know for their reliability either... and the Blackwing will be much more fun than the RS7 or E63.

      ​@GCCars German car reliability has come a long way, I've owned both. Current owner of a 2023 C8 and had an Audi S4 before it and it was flawless, no issues at all. This caddie is a nice looking car, having a manual for such a big luxury sports sedan is great.

      @@GCCarsCA everyone says that but every German car I’ve owned has been 100% problem free and I don’t baby my cars. Had a 14 S4 stage 1 tuned with 130k problem free miles when I traded for my 21 RS5 Sportback, and it’s been flawless so far, too.
