Of course, GM wants to discontinue a pure badass.
Its not getting discontinued
MySpace - bad Management skills
Lol its what they always do. Finally had a badass platform in the mid 90s with the B body's and killed it for suvs. And the same thing with screwing over Holden and killing the Commodore platform which gave us the SS
gm wants to sell you a 2 cyl 23rp for 45k
Bruh!...and GM won't build anymore of these beasts after 2020 or any cars to be exact!...hopefully we'll get a Camaro SUV like the Mustang SUV so we can kick its ass too!...lol!...LS RULES!!!
This is the most beautiful american "modern" car I've ever seen , bravo Cadillac 👏.. Thank u guys
U missed Lincoln MKZs since 2013? I've owned 2. Fantastic midsize sporty sedans.
@@Davido50 MKZ hahahaha impossible to buy such ugliness and Lincoln is far away from Cadillac
@@Davido50 wtf ? Shut up man
@@Davido50 The new lincolns look nice, but cadillac still takes the cake.
EB SSCamG6 Lincoln MKZ is a joke compared to Cadillac’s sedan lineup.
This car is a tuners dream. AWD, V8 twin turbo, with factory forged internals.
Was just about to say that
You can build these to 1500+ horsepower without breaking a sweat
Too bad they’re so expensive and discontinued 😭
@@awesomebush8711 yea
WELL IF THAT'S THE CASE,I'M GLAD THEY DISCONTINUED THIS BEAUTIFUL CAR,CAUSE WHY WOULD ANYONE ALTER THIS SEXY MASTERPIECE AS IT IS!!💯
Dear GM please don't discontinue this Cadillac that is not smart!!!
From what I understand (and I might be wrong) is that the current factory that is making the CT6 is closing, but that GM will be moving CT6 production to a different facility. The CT6 won't be going away 🤷🏽♂️
sopwithsnoopy they were going to close but they have decided to pour 3 billion dollars in it and make it an electric vehicle assembly plant.
Cadillac dropped the ball on this one for a hundred grand it should have had at least 700 HP! And as rare is it is it will never hold its value for any length of time!
If you want GM to build more cars like this, maybe you should buy one because that's the problem, GM sells VERY few Cadillacs, especially V spec models. Personally, I think GM vehicles are garbage (I worked there for years and drove GM vehicles for over 20 years, so I should know), but those of you who like GM products should actually buy more of them, maybe then they'd survive.
D LG First of all GM sales more than enough vehicles and aren’t going anywhere anytime soon. They literally sold more vehicles than Ford in 2018 snatching their “best selling American manufacturer” title. People buy GM because they are reliable, dependable, practical, strong and good looking. They’re competitive. You may think they’re trash but that’s just your opinion. Sales show that more people disagree with you. My 2014 Chevrolet Malibu was reliable and easy to maintain, I loved it. I’ll be buying my new Cadillac sedan soon. The new Corvette literally blows all the competition out of the water. GM is doing great. They have alot of haters on TH-cam though.
This is why the American sedan market is suffering so bad they make dumb decisions to cut something they finally mastered
Yes your right, we here in Australia lost the Holden/HSV GTS also Ford performance cars like GT n F6 they were performance sedans n now we have nothing except 300 SRT.
Its the general public in both countries. Everyone the world over just wants to buy mini suv/crossover/tall stationwagons. The 3 box sedan design has been ditched by normies who want all the trunk space in the world to put bags of groceries in.🤣
The large luxury sedan segment is in a death spiral. I personally love this vehicle. I test drove a loaded 3.0T Sport a few weeks ago. Incredible vehicle. I work closely with retailers for all luxury import brands. Mercedes, BMW, Audi, and Jag all have to discount their large sedans $20k to move them. S class, 7 series, XJ, and A8. They're just not very profitable right now for all of the engineering costs that go into making them competitive when Americans will pay shit tons of money for trucks with cheap fake chrome and 22" wheels.
@David Topchiev more money than sense if you rather get a car that you admit is shit upfront.🤣
Wrong, Americans are buying Trucks and SUVs, and that's the real reason that cars like this, isn't pushing t needle.
It's so fucking nice, I had no idea this thing existed
V8 powered to!👍
Neither did 99% of the world hence why it's being discontinued.
That there is the problem. Nobody did.
They were never meant to exist
This car is a dream come true Cadillac would be crazy to stop production on a vehicle this beautiful. The best cadillac Ive seen in years
StoneVee yeah $98,000 is a bit much for a GM car but they are not making many V8 CT6’s so this will be a collectors car one day.
@@Dcfashionguru80 unfortunately it will not be a collectors car.....it will be a car that the owners will not be able to find parts for to keep it running.....I see that all the time....btw I love it and think they should keep building sedans...
@StoneVee That's pretty cheap in its class. You have a hand built v8 twin turbo engine producing 550+hp and over 600lb-ft torque with the full size luxury sedan layout. Just wait two years and buy it after depreciation. Every new luxury car seems expensive lol to be honest bro. MSRP is always beefed up, welcome to capitalism.
It mimics the other body and interior styles that the ct6 offers this is only the v8 edition
And add the impala. Same frame but caddy don't want a cheaper virgin
A luxury car will always be more classy than a luxury suv.
Idk have you seen the new Cadillac Escalade.
@@alexandercrush, what Escalade?
Alex Coveted by Pimps everywhere.
Thats not even close to true , its the exact opposite
@@alexandercrush More like the New Navigator and Aviator.
They need to build a million of these. Incredible. FINALLY.
Get one. I'm looking now myself.
@@Davido50 it's expensive thou 90k man
This is one of the BEST cars ever made by GM and they KILL IT ! Born to die so quickly! Come on mannnnnnnnnnn !!!
Cadillac will be next to be killed off just like pontiac, Saturn etc..
Oliver Delgado umm...no it won’t.
It doesn't surprise me at all.In Australia, GM just killed a badass Holden Commodore VF.
It's been almost a year they announced that the rumors of discontinuing the ct6 wasn't true.
@@oliverdelgado6952 Cadillac will be fine now that they have the XT4, XT5, XT6 and a new 2021 Escalade coming (And the 2019-2020 are still selling crazy). It's the sedan market that is dying.
As a 60 plus individual, I can recall one experience that slightly parallels this experience. Driving a 1969 Chrysler Imperial. That 440 cid motor put out 480 ft/lbs if I remember correctly. One of the greater numbers for those times. If I were to compare that vehicle to this cadillac, I'm sure I would be disappointed. Hurrah for technological progress. Now, can they refocus on not cancelling the XTS, which was the best selling cadillac according to the press. Loved your professional attitude.
This car would annihilate a 69 Chrysler inperial. Not even in the same catagory. Car was a 13 second car with a goo driver. This thing is in the 11s.
@@IReahpZz The Imperial was not a 13 second car. I drove a 1968 Chrysler 300 with a 440 engine, this car was lighter than the Imperial, and it was a 15 second car at the strip.
@@stevend.3508 mentioning driver and obv mods due to times, I'm giving it the best case scenario as int he new England area in the 90s I watched one pull a 13.9. This car is worlds apart from that.
I’d take this over an M, RS, or an AMG any freaking time of the day!!!
GM's CEO needs to go! She is ruining the company!
When a beast wears a tuxedo 😍
I really like the CT6, especially this version. I hate to see it go away!
GM finally brings out a magnificent car and discontinues it, way to go GM, I’m not a fan of GM but I would so buy this car if I had that kind of budget for a car. I would go as far to say this may have import car lovers reconsidering their options.
i am a GM fan, but i do hate the thing that GM launches a new thing and then discontinues
Who needs 34 speakers when you got that bad ass exhaust sound
Haha, I know، right.
The only Cadillac I'd be interested in...
The Cadillac CT6, The CTS V They're nice to come on.
Not at 90 grand!!
Yes at 90 grand , find me a *NEW* AMG or M at the same price as this with similar performance. A performance oriented s class and 7 series are double the price of this , even the e63 and m5 cost a bit more.
I don't even like modern caddies but but this is a good value for the money.
All the CTS-V line had been awesome.
@@thetruth4529 MB is way overpriced & overrated. Ur brainwashed.
Damn, Cadillac: That is one DAMN good sounding car! It literally sounds like the 6.2L, and that is no easy feat with two turbos muffling everything. And I love that Cadillac kept the styling very reserved, almost in an Audi S8-esque fashion. Ultimate sleeper.
I hear Cadillac has extended the life of this car. And this engine will likely end up in the Escalade as well, which makes tons of sense since those are far more profitable.
@Liu Kang Kixx No, what I meant was Caddy kept the styling tasteful. No crazy raised wings or exaggerated add-ons. Likely only we car buffs will know this is not a Caddy to be messed with...until they hear that exhaust. It's a homerun for Caddy. The power of the AMGs(very likely better reliability too)at 30-50% less the price.
@Liu Kang Kixx You can get it in non V series with V8 then it'll be a sleeper.
Liu Kang Kixx You’re literally judging the interior from a TH-cam video. This interior definitely screams nothing Chevrolet. There is minimalistic part sharing but the overall quality and materials are far superior to that of any Impala. I do agree a more flashy/fancier interior would definitely fit this CT6-V better though.
Liu Kang Kixx I think u can take that off if u want. That sounds hilarious, nobody would suspect a thing
This is an awesome car. I didn't know Cadillac made a V version of this. But since it's been discontinued I guess they don't. Even at 95k this car is a steal. I would buy it.
Yes best of both worlds longer and WIDER THEN CTS V AND FASTER SHIFTING 10SPEED VS 8SPEED BUT MUCH LESS POWER THEN THE CTS V UNFORTUNATELY 😐
I’ve been waiting on a video about the CT6-V for so long!!!! I’m so happy to finally hear and see it perform. Thank you so much for the video!
Glad you enjoyed the video! And trust us, it was our pleasure haha
Gm: we are going to build the car they keep wanting and then discontinue it right away.
Typical GM
MainManJC I know what you mean. I loved the CTS-V Coupe .AndGM killed them, for electric cars no one bought?!
MainManJC Yeah sure, the car they “keep wanting” GM to build and when they do the people that “kept wanting” it DO NOT buy. Then it’s GM’s fault when they consider axing it to put money elsewhere. Lol. Americans and their logic I tell you. Smh 🤦🏽♂️
Always
Sadly this been GM'S MO for decades when they make a car that people will most likely buy they kill it.
finally someone in a review tries out the stereo
It's a beautiful car... GM is dumb for discounting it.
The problem is if you have a Honda in your driveway YOUR the problem
Gm would be awesome for "discounting" this car.lol
masonryman 81 ?
@Fake Saudi actually all the ones that been made been bought so please shut up saying bullshit
Mr. TAMW they only made 200 stupid. Those sold out in a matter of hours. He’s talking about if Cadillac mass produced these to compete with Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG. The people complaining about it being discontinued would not make this the best seller of the segment. Btw, it’s not discontinued.
Let’s not get all depressed yet. Nothing is confirmed about the future of this vehicle. The Cadillac president said they’re looking for a different production place for the CT6
Detroit-Hamtramck plant will stay open now - electrics in the future but maybe they will change their mind on this one.
BREAKING NEWS: a senior official at GM has confirmed to MotorTrend this afternoon that the Blackwing V8 is not slated to be in either the new Escalade or the CT5 V due to cost concerns and platform incompatibility. So enjoy the AWESOME Blackwing V8 while it's still around in this CT6-V!
It's going in the C8 and future caddies
@@thewolf61691 plans for c8 have been scrapped at this time
Supposedly it's going in the CT5 V Max. The 'regular' CT5 V gets a 3.0L TT
This would be such a tasteful villain's vehicle🦹♂️
@Liu Kang Kixx Cruella de Vil
It already is, watch "RAY DONOVAN"
It needs lasers in the headlights
I am just really blown away that Cadillac developed first the ATS-V & CTS-V, which caught M-Benz & BMW off guard, in 2016, only to be discontinued 3 years later. Then, they develop the Blackwing only to ultimately discontinue it! Is there a conspiracy against Cadillac? This Blackwing is Amazing!
Thank you for your in-depth of this MY DREAM car! To think back in 1982-1985 Cadillac’s horrible 4.1 HT4100 gave so many problems and today their 4.2 Blackwing produces absurdly amounts of horsepower and torque!! I’m in love with this car. Too bad they don’t offer a cashmere and autumn brown color choice for such a true luxury car.
Glad you enjoyed!
This engine is probably going into the CT5 Blackwing which will be built at Lansing Grand River. This is probably where the CT6 production will also be moved once the VSS-R platform has been introduced.
Adithya Ramachandran Thank goodness someone who reads the news all these other people in comments still think the CT6 is a dead car😭
I cant believe that's a stock exhaust. Sounds like a Corsa add-on on one of the older Northstar STS models.
I'd rather have this than any foreign sedan right now!
What a rare beast. Great video! Hope that Cadillac can find a way to keep this amazing engine around a bit longer. Sad to see this car go before it ever really had a chance to succeed.
Don't discontinue, as a Corvette owner and a lover of Cadillac for many years I would absolutely consider this vehicle for both speed and luxury
A maintenance nightmare for sure but you'll probably be madly in love with it and won't mind or somehow reason the flaws away and deal with it.
Elaborate, please?
@@SubUrbanSF maintenance routines get expensive with high hp turbo cars especially in V8 form.... just compare this to a LS motor,which one would you rather work on or have someone else repair?
This man went from 5’3 to 5’8 real quick 😂
I still think this car should have had their SuperCruise option, which is available on the Ct6 Platinum with a version of the same Blackwing engine. I know that was a philosophical choice for Cadillac since this is a driver's car and SuperCruise is supposed to drive you. But even people who like perfomance driving occasionally want their car to take them on a long trip.
Great video! One suggestion I would make is keep the sunroof shade closed while doing interior review portion, it will eliminate some of the glare on the screens. Keep up the good work!
For those who will remember this, see how collectable this car will be.The only twin turbo overheard cam Cadillac in caddy history in a one year run.As cadillac goes electric, if id had the cash id buy several.Priceless.
The ultimate American sedan
That would be TESLA!
Ummmm, P100DL?
@@AnarchoHumanism LOL 😂
Wait a year and buy it used for $35,000. GM makes the best used cars in the world.
Not so sure on these performance Cadillacs.
A gen2 2011-2014 CTSV is still $30-40k
Gen 3 2016-2019 Ctsv is $59k+
OMG! This video just hit 500k views. Drew and Mason, you guys rock! ❤❤❤
Sweet! Thanks for getting us there!
Yes! Cadillac kept the V8! While everyone else is going twin turbo V6! 👍
Absolutely fantastic review! I'm speechless. Definitely the highest performing Cadillac ever! If you had the money, you probably would buy this car.
Thank, Amin! It's was definitely our pleasure making this review 😊
@@CarConfections Of course.
Drew, this is one incredible vehicle! You should have called me to take Mason's place in this review...lol...your 5'3" height made me burst out laughing...although you did look kinda small driving that ship! Amazing power, amazing car. Too bad it's being dropped. It takes me back to when I test drove one of the rare 1987 Buick Regal GNX. That rumble sound is poor heaven! Thanks for sharing this!
It was one of those days, I couldn't even remember how tall I was haha! But the car made up for it with how much fun it is! Have a great weekend!
ive got a platinum twin turbo v6 and love it, lets hope GM doesnt discontinue these sedan they are incredible to drive
The reason they are discontinuing this car and engine is so stupid. The CT6, CT6 Vsport and C8 Corvette are the first wins in a long time for GM.
That brand I want to love but can't figure what their up to.
Most confused car brand ever
Smh
MrCy101 You’re concerning yourself with the wrong thing. Let the people who are hired and PAID 💰 to worry about the direction of this company worry about what they are up to. If you like their product(s), buy it. Simple. You don’t need a rundown of the company’s vision or long term goal(s) in order to take home a new beautifully done Cadillac CT6-V. Appreciate the product in front of you that makes you happy, support the manufacturers that build what we want and enjoy our purchase. That’s our job as American consumers.
@@mybro727 Anytime a consumer is about to drop $100k on a product, they deserve to know everything possible, including whether or not a product will remain in production long enough for the customer to pay off the car. Most hardworking people don't want to be paying that much money for a car that might be pulled from the market in less than two years.
Kaylon Centers Please explain to me what difference it would make to the customer if the vehicle they purchased is discontinued before their vehicle is paid off. Does “pulled from the market” also mean that the company will come confiscation the previously purchased units off of people’s property? I’m so confused.
It doesn’t matter if you’re spending $100,000 or $10,000, any owner of any brand new vehicle deserves to know everything bout their new purchase. I think you failed to comprehend my comment and the clear point that I made.
@@mybro727 It makes a huge difference. Not many examples of these have sold and with Cadillac gaining a fraction of the market share it did in recent decades, there have been legitimate concerns as to whether or not the brand can remain viable in the next few years. I don't know what you are confused about but I suspect you feel challenged and don't want to understand. Buyers prefer to know the product they are buying is competitive and somehow in demand, which this car is unlikely to be if withdrawn from the market before it has recognition and identity within the brand and segment.
Kaylon Centers *How* does it make a huge difference to the customer? You’ve yet to explain how the future of the brand would directly affect the existing CT6 owner(s).
No sir, I do not feel challenged at all in any way. I have no reason to feel anything of the sort. It appears that you DO NOT know what you’re talking about. My confusion is coming from your unclear and inaccurate assessments.
First of all, there’s nothing “recent” about “decades ago”. The current market _Cadillac_ is competing in today is very different from the market it was competing in several decades ago. So even if back then there _was_ a legitimate concern for the brand remaining viable, *that* wouldn’t apply to a since completely overhauled and revamped _Cadillac_ competing in a entirely different market.
Secondly, if someone has shopped in the segment, made a decision, and chose the Cadillac CT6 over all of it’s well known competitors, that means the CT6 _is_ competitive and in demand to some extent. If the vehicle wasn’t competitive nobody would be buying it over it’s established competition.
Without GM even heavily advertising this vehicle, the Cadillac CT6 outsold the BMW 7-Series twice in a row in 2018. This “V” variant alone sold out of stock within a matter of hours. It already has an identity in the segment and amongst the brand.
Warren buffett is about to get this
The CT6 should have came out with a V8 with other engine options. The sporty look doesn’t sit well with me for this car. Give me the standard looking CT6 with the V8 and I’d be fine. Seems like Cadillac has lost its way, and if it wasn’t for the Escalade they’d probably end up like Pontiac.
your the kind who would complain about your mother's milk
François D first of all its “you’re”, second of all I said what I said.
When I see the Lincoln fanboy brag about how Lincoln is Superior over Cadillac. I remind them, of two things. The V series, and Caddys race program.
@Jamie Miller Jamie Miller that's a very broad statement. To say no one cars about luxury performance is bullshit. And "prentended to be racecar" exactly how is V series prentend racecar when my ctsv is running down most most performance cars on the roads and I take it on the road course damn near 10 times a year and drive it home from the road course. You sound dumb
@Jamie Miller youre damn right! Last Cadillac Is My 1993 fleetwood! Rip Cadillac, you died on the european wannabe road...
@Jamie Miller at the end of the day, Lincoln's are just Ford's with leather seats. Found On Road Dead, or is it Ford Owners, Really Dumb...?
Great review! Caddy & Lincoln been killing it last 5yrs. I need see if Chevy /Caddy dealer up rd has one these. U got a new subscriber.
Awesome we're glad to hear that! Welcome to the Car Confections 'family' 😀!
I have a Cadillac collection and Lol I cant not lie I need this sexy toy in my collection and as my everyday driver. Great Video and Review bud! ✋
Thanks!
Just started my collection with a 2011 V, next is either ATS 2.0 or STSV, then ATSV then a CTSV3 but gotta get the $$$ together lol
@@armaggedon4christ Takes time but its all for fun for the Car hobby. As long as you are enjoying it, have fun buddy!
@TheJblacc59 its the perfect size for me JUST under full size. Although a CTSV on the SS platform....
For the life of me I cannot understand why GM would kill this beautiful car, I have been waiting for this,I too am a Cadillac man,I own a 2013 Escalade ESV Platinum, I too want to add this to my collection! This is a performance luxury car lovers dream, this Blackwing twin turbo is going to hurt a lot of feelings, what a shame! The only thing I worry about is parts,down the road I know that when GM kills production on a specific car like the 94,95,96 Impala SS the parts become hard to get and can be very expensive!
Now this is a Cadillac!! Big, comfortable, powerful, V8-powered and RWD-based!! Just the way EVERY large sedan should be!! I got no beef with the SUV/CUV craze sweeping the nation nowadays, but to see manufacturers scrapping good sedans like this in favor of these CUV/SUV models is frustrating!!
Reverse camera and the dash display options, wow, and all wheel drive, as good as it gets
Beautiful Cadillac and amazing performance, excellent review, too. Although the exterior is refined and beautiful, the interior is typically GM, with a sea of monotone grey/black surfaces. Fortunately, the Germans are decontenting their interiors and chasing the ball down hill, too. No need for a radio, the Blackwing V8 provides all of the music my ears would ever desire. Hopefully, the reliability is better than recent Cadillacs that I have owned, spending their time at the dealership while I spend $1,000 per month to drive around in the Chevy that GM gave me as a loaner while my flagship Cadillac was in for repairs.
i drove the 2020 Cadillac CT6 4.2tt and it was a blast
Of course.
An amazing review. Great job here. Well done. Excellent vehicle, no question. Unfortunate that only 500 to be made. This is a flagship, refined piece of art here. Just awesome sound and excellent attention to detail. Again, great review too. Job well done.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed!
I bought one - I love it. Wish it had super cruise though and massage seats that are only available on the platinum edition
Lucky
We need more of the The CT6 V!
I want the opportunity to own one dammit!
I would love to think the same, i just dont think that even a preowned CT6V will make its return to be sold again commonly. its iconic already, hot V twins and its a caddi! i think they just may still sell at cost like they are brand new.
This is an awesome machine! It's sad that Cadillac is giving up on sedans after making _the best_ American luxury sedan in modern history.
I can already see this car as a future classic in coming years.
If they discontinue it, can we get a CRATE ENGINE PLEASE?!😁
WOW
THAT STARTUP THO 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
THAT CAUGHT ME OFF GUARD
STILL A WONDERFUL AND ELEGANT CAR🔥🔥🔥🔥
#carconfections
Yeah in person it sounds even better! A+
NICE I CAN'T WAIT TO GET ONE A ONE OF A KIND THANK YOU FOR THE NARRATION
It doesn't come through as clear in the video, but the Auburn trim is gorgeous. It's not as dark (looking almost black) as it is in the video. It's more of a very rich maroon/burgundy.
As well, though GM is discontinuing this one, I have no doubt there will be something else amazing coming out in a few years. Think about all the Flagship models that came and went, from Eldorado to Allante to XLR. Caddy will give us something great soon, I'm sure. Still, though, it's sad to see this one go.
Also sad that they discontinued the SPORT trim (not V-sport). Basically, it's the same car as above, only with the 3.0TT engine and 404 hp. $25k less MSRP. That's the one I bought...
Blackwing V8 sounds better than, dare I say it, AMG V8. It sounds NA. Im in love
GM will always make the best V8 exhaust notes.
We finally had a legit American competitor for the Mercedes sedans but no, discontinued
I just brought a Buick Regal with the premium II package, I love it to death.
Looking at this Cadillac, and the game and industry changing 2020 Corvette, GM is on point again reminiscent of the 70's glory years.
This car is awesome! Get it together GM! How about Marketing the car??? Most people don't even know that is killer car exists. This is definitely a keeper!!! Advertise, Advertise, Advertise!!!!
Hi Drew 🙂. That's a beastly V8 Caddy. The audio system's 34 speakers, I cannot even imagine what an audio system like that must sound like. I missed Mason, I've got so use to seeing you both on your channel. The 2020 CT5 will have a V spec version in an awesome looking habanero orange, will you and Mason be reviewing the CT5 V? Is the 2020 Subaru Legacy XT review coming to the channel soon? I'm excited to see what will be on your channel before 2019 closes out. God bless you Drew and Mason.
We have received word that the CT5 (regular version) should be at dealers before the end of the year. So far we haven't had any luck tracking down an XT Legacy, but we'll get there eventually! Have a great short week!
Damm exhaust note sounds good!!
Yeah I knew it would sound good but it still surprised me in a good way!
This is such a BEAST! Not to many cars on the highway that are head turning vehicles. When you see the lights on these cars you can't help but to look . This car will be more amazing if someone has it tuned by John Hennessy .
Why didn't they just put the LT4 engine from the C7 Z06 in there like the old CTS-V? Overall, this is a good looking car, I think.
John Dell To stop from being a parts pin car.
Basically to separate more from Chevy. Cadillac even refuses to allow Chevy to use Blackwing in the C8.
CapCityLandTV GM’s president even said that the engines Cadillac does use from other GM brands will be different too, so the 2.7T in Chevy Silverado is not the same 2.7T found in the CT4 V
Great review. Except GM already said on multiple occasions that the CT6 will be moved to a different plant and continued. Why does everyone still say it's getting canned
Thanks! We must be reading different information. All out research still says production is ending in early 2020. They have *hinted* that it could continue at another plant but there is nothing official regarding that
@@CarConfections www.autonews.com/manufacturing/cadillac-ct6-isnt-dead-us
The CT6 was never going to be killed.
Great Review! I was wondering what that push pocket thing on the rear passenger doors was? S550 eat your heart out! With tuning I could see 660hp with 700tq easy.
22:27 "It just sounds like America" Perfect synopsis Drew!!
All this suv craze is killing the car world. I know suv's are great for families but they're all big boxes on wheels in my opinion. Some just have bigger Christmas bows on them than others. Cars have always had their distinct appearence. This car is 90 grand but now all really nice cars cost that or greater.
i bought a SUV to tow my trailer home. Otherwise i drive a car.
I own the biggest of those Boxes (Ford Excursion) but I'd prefer a rear drive full-sized coupe or sedan anyday. It sucks that GM has produced some nice vehicles in the last few years and they're continuing to discontinue them or not advertise them. I hope they move production of the CT6 and make this more available.
@Liu Kang Kixx the used car market is crap too. Cars 10 years plus that's should be sub 5k are still running you that and more smh!
Cars with Rwd V8s or high performance V6s sell . The move away from sedans to trucks and SUVs were based on manufacturers not producing cars that people want to drive . Dodge is the only company to figure it out .
On top of nobody is going to spend $100K on American sedan. The average American cant afford it and the ones who can only car about car name plates.
That car looks better than any Cadillac was ever built
What about a 1959 or 1976 Eldorado Convertible??
Or what about a classic Coupe Deville??
Can't say those are not beautiful.
No.
All I can say is Ray Donovan looks amazing in this car.
Supercruise automatic Drive and a radar detection system you can really toss out the Cannonball Run record. This car has the potential for the best of both worlds. Good review.
Awesome! A truly rare car. Thanks for the review!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed!
GM launches a gem instead of perfecting it reskinning it instead its future is limited run then cancellation.
GM released the CT6 late Hyundai gets jump on GM & Lincoln's Continental
GM refused to built Avenir , Avenir coupe.
Just saying
I also have a CT6, but it has a displacement of 2.0. I really like this 4.2 v8 displacement. This voice sounds too charming.
Funny thing about the phone charger (8:55) that when the weather is hot and the car is hot on the inside, it stops charging your phone. Silly little bug in the car that was never really given much attention. But I love my 2016 CT6!!!
Caddy needs to just stop playing . . . we need a high performance 2-door GT cruiser ASAP!
Daniel Watts you mean a revamped Xlr
@@phat-b6771 something, anything of the sorts needs to come out of Detroit without anymore hesitation...
Daniel Watts couldn’t agree with you more
EXACTLY!
They could’ve done a direction turn signal with the top part of the taillight and it would’ve helped it stand out amongst the crowd
you cannot put direction turn signal on the trunk, it is against regulation.

@@francoisd6942 Both Audi and Ford have sequential turn signals on their cars
Me:Yaaas 🙌🏾 Cadillac is back!
Also me: WTF u mean it's discontinued 😰
I know, right?
Kinda ridiculous if you ask me...
They could have done more for the exterior. There should be carbon fiber on the exterior and a different hood from the regular CT6. Try some carbon ceramic breaks and a track package. It's sad that Cadillac wants to listen to the weak consumers who can't handle power. The entire point of multiple trim levels is to have an option of your preference. Overall the CT6 is nice, but I just don't like the direction of where the brand is heading.
The engine sounds great but it sounds more like Affalterbach than America.
Head to head with AMG and BMW? Not even close!
3 years ago today! Might try to get it dude.
An amazing performer with beautiful styling and is seriously luxurious. At that price, I'll take two!
Great Review that’s beautiful especially that car.
They should've released this when the model debuted. They waited to long honestly. I think gm should use the v8 for the rst or Denali models
Forget the 5! This 6 is a must have. This caddy will make BMW & Audi Jealous.. Absolutely love it.
The best Cadillac on sale today. I wonder if it will hold its value pretty well with so few being made. I would buy one if I could in a heartbeat store it in a garage and only drive it on nice days. I would take care of it to make it last as long as possible
Would have been a great competitor with the German counterparts
Nice, 🌟🌟🌟 the most powerful Cadillac after CTS-V 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
jheison fabian parra cataño It is the most powerful Cadillac the CTS was discontinued in September
