      GM for yearssss focuses on the Chinese market..GM makes larger profit in china than in the USA.. this car is great but I doubt they sell much of the 100K version..I'm in NYC and might see a new Caddy maybe once every 2 days..says a lot

    As a car loving kid, of course your childhood is spent with the supercar posters and love for hot rods. I've always had a deep love for Camaros. They were my first and second car as a teen. As of recent years my crush was the Charger Hellcst till the newer ZL1s came out. But now with that kid all grown up, I've been drooling over this CT5 Blackwing since the very first teaser trailer. And I bet I've watched every video youtube has on them. MAN I'M IN LOVE WITH THESE BLACKWINGS!

    Hey Joe and Lori, and the Raiti's Rides family how are y'all doing.
    Hey Joe, thanks for uploading a video about the "America's sport sedan" review. Now the Cadillac CT5-V blackwing is an "American V8" luxury sports sedan that offers a manual transmission, which means that some car enthusiasts can opt for a manual.
    And fun fact about the Cadillac CT5-V blackwing is the only V8 powered sedan with a *manual* *transmission* and it haves 668 horsepower (the new Cadillac Escalade V is rumored to have the same or "similar" hp then the sedan).
    Also Cadillac sell a smaller "sport" sedan called the Cadillac CT4-V blackwing, which 472 hp with a manual transmission, but with a V6.
    So Joe or the Raiti's Rides family what is your favorite midsize performance sedan.
    The Cadillac CT5-V blackwing or the CT4-V blackwing, the Dodge Charger SRT hellcat wide body, Tesla model S Plaid, Porsche Panamera or Taycan Turbo S, BMW M5, Mercedes-Benz AMG E 63 S, Audi RS7, Alfa Romeo Giulia, Mercedes-AMG CLS 53, Mercedes-Benz AMG GT 63 or ect.
    (Also, sorry Joe for not being on TH-cam for 2 whole day and not commenting)

    It’s just a damned shame that the automotive industry is moving away from internal combustion towards electric power.

      Electric cars do nothing but put money in the corrupt leftwing politicians pockets. There will be just as much pollution because the power plants will have to burn many times the amount of coal they burn now to charge all these electric cars. Not to mention the sound of a powerful v8 is the soul of the car. It’s a shame we the people allow a minority of idiots to control us.

      You could hear it a LOT with the V3 but I suspect when Cadillac said they were using active sound management to remove undesirable harmonics - they may have meant the super charger given you can hear with the windows down. It dominated the sound track over the motor in the V3 and I would have preferred a mix of both in this car.
