I’ve always felt these Cadillac Vs are so underrated. Especially when powered by a supercharged V8!
Spinning is not winning. M3 comp murders this from dig or from roll
@@1laimmiss M3 is such a smaller car though, ct5 is a midsize+
@@1laimmiss nahh this has a faster 60-130 soo
Not underrated at all
@@mmf9765 the m3 cs is not the comparison m…the m5 cs is and that car crushes this thing. The caddy might be more fun with the manual option though.
Hands down this is the most beautiful sports sedan ever made. Cadillac hit it out of the ball park.
Nice car, great sound, love the no-lift shifts. Waiting to win the lotto
I know how you feel!
I love how Joe beats the piss out of all the vehicles he drives. Love it. Keep it up Joe
Thanks Mike! This is what they were built for.
Drive it like you stole it
@@America1st69 ON THROTTLE!
@@RaitisRides are you gonna be at the New York Auto show
That's why i watch this kid, this time he got the wheels and road on point! 🔥👽
I really wanted this car but out of my budget for now. I bought an Elantra N Manual to have a little fun in the meantime. But I can’t wait to buy one of these used (manual of course) in 4 to 6 years. Joe, you looked so intense and hyper-focused that it gave me chills just to think of me having the same experience down the road. Thanks for the great video!
I'm in the same boat but worried when they kill off gas engines prices will sky rocket 😭
Raiti, this review to me is like a kid in a candy store. I'm here for it all! Thanks for shining a light on this bad boy again.
This Caddy is definitely towel worthy. Bust it out Joe! Lol. keep up pumping out this quality content! 👌
You got it man!
Amazing review, and great driving Joe! Thank you for driving this beast like it deserved!
I love your opening description, it was so good Joe but when you mentioned "Cadillac electrification" I felt like the bungee cord snapped. LOL. Fantastic review and enjoy internal combustion while you can. Thanks !
That looks like lots of fun!
You better believe it!
Love the sick burn out 10:50 sounds epic 😎
My wife and I just smile when we watch your vids. Thanks!!!!
That is so wonderful Robert! Thanks for letting me share the cars.
I loved this video Joe. Jose from Puerto Rico. Boy... I love the stick shift. There's nothing that can substitute that engagement with the car. Great stuff man! I'm still hoping to see you on throttle on a freaking Koenisegg.
Joe I enjoyed the on throttle action, my setup would be all black with white black and red trimmed interior red seatbelts and red caliper colors. Great job you three!😊
I worked at GM for 10 years and now I'm at Ford..I'm still a GM man at heart!! Mopar doesn't touch GM in overall engineering.. Especially steering and ride control. My goodness!!
I drive a 2014 Chevy Sonic 1.4 Turbo RS Automatic. Made in S. Korea. Quite reliable. Steering feel is amazing. Turbo is great, except in very steep uphill driving. Paddles are helpful. Turbo does not love 90 degrees temp. Overall, a great combo.
Engineering and technology in today’s performance cars is insane! I love the sound! 😍 also love that it’s Manual. 👍🏼
Ditto with your review! I just got one, too! Found the manual 2023 Blackwing so am getting one. Once it arrives here in California I will start doing the reviews!🎉🎉🎉
Welll.....???
@@sasquatchlife8836 I have it. Just didn’t have enough time to do it.
Not only does Raiti show you the business but he leaves you craving those Cinnabons.
I like the way that you think!
Joe’s intense drive face always rocks!
I love how your favorite road for test driving says SLOW painted on it.
I love these cars so much and it's a damn shame that GM is letting the Camaro die considering it shares the chassis and drivetrain. Great episode and awesome on throttle guys!!!
I owned a 1979, 1985 and 1973 Camaro in that order but feel the newer ones are ugly. It's almost like Chevy wanted them to fail.
Love the orange 🍊 peel blackwing CT5-V with the row row 6spd manual..im still love the v3 model wish they made the front fascia like the CTS-V aggressive..Thanks Joe and Steven for this exciting segment..LT4 still running things til the end 😊
Like the color so far Joe! And also congratulations on starting to now reach 1M views on your videos! Hard work is paying slowly off💯 Been a viewer since 1 going for 2 years now 🐯💧
I love that it has no problem doing 35 but does exactly what you want it to do when you want it to. So glad I bought one with a manual. That much power in a RWD sedan should not feel as planted as it does.
That thing sounds awesome..love the entire exterior..great backend.
Awesome CT5V Blackwing.
I knew you would love it Luis!
@@RaitisRides Yeah I do!
23:37
Those Alcantara covered a-pillars with tweeters are coconuts.
Nice review keep up the good work Joe
Love it. Wish I had one in my garage and a bigger garage to put it in. Closing in on a million subs!!
You manhandle that shift lever like you're angry at it! That's awesome, Joe!
Great job Joe! She's a beauty! Love the color. Looking forward to the Live Q and A tonight! 👍
Hey Chris! Lori and I have to postpone the Live Q&A. Our dog is not doing well.
@@RaitisRides oh no! I hope your dog feels better
@Raiti's Rides Joe I'm sorry to hear that brother. I have a dog of my own in my our family, and he is my world. I understand and hope your furry friend gets well soon! Also I would love to meet him maybe on the next Live Q and A. 😁
As usual, excellent review Joe. Man I miss driving stick. I need that in my garage 😂😂😂
Love the intense look when you were cornering.
Joe you are the awesome guy who brings the smile to the car ethusiast people. I love the Cadillac CT5-V it is still making stick. Cadillac do not drop the 6 speed manual keep it until 2032 Please. !!!! Love the horsepower 668 and the sound crackles and pops :)
The sound when he lets off gas 🔥🔥🔥
Joe I think those Cadillacs V's are so powerful I love the V8 it's so aggressive
Great job The blacking really moves. Amazing top end car from your friends at G.M. To bad they gave up on the Camaro 10 years ago !
I ain't gonna lie, that was pretty badass. Yes, I'd buy this over the BMW and Joe you're right, that frontend is just killer! This car has it all, great review as always. You sure do get to review & drive some amazing vehicles, I want to come back as you in my next life, lol.
Great driving Joe.
Thanks Lee I really appreciate that man!
I’ve learned so much about cars from watching your videos👌🏿
Joe's got the best reviews. Dude is an excellent host
Absolutely beautiful! As much as I love EVs, only a Manual ride can create those facial expressions 😂! Pure momentum as your adrenaline punches through the gears! Nothing like being 100% in control of your vehicle
I love this car. Great review!
When the used prices stabilizes I'm getting one of these in manual. You can drive with 3 other people and still get the full boogie effect of rowing gears. CT5 Blackwing is my favorite American sedan.
Hey Raiti, really enjoy your reviews! Youre a humble guy!
That means the world!
Yes he is
Truly spectacular but so expensive. I love it, thanks Joe!! Fun times. 👍🇺🇸🙏
Cadillac! Style, performance and technology! Cadillac just keeps raising the bar! Love this Cadillac especially the color. Great job as always Joe.
Now that's how u do it! Nobody does it better. Love this car
🇺🇸 *LOVE this Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing* !! *Prefer the straight shifter on this Cadillac* !! *Glad for REAL knobs on infotainment/climate control* !! *Cadillac all the way and NO BMW* !! *Fantastic video Joe and Steven* !! #RaitisRides 🇺🇸
Really enjoyed this one, it's terribly apparent you're in love with this ride. By far one of your best throttle on videos, basically a 4 door SC Camaro. You weren't hammering on this Caddy you were the Caddy. I too love this car but it's way out of my price range. Keep up the good work Joe.
Awesome awesome
1 dumb question
Are you actually using the clutch with the rev matching technology?
Looks nice Joe.
Thanks Manuel!
Dream car. Manual transmission for the win.
Thumbs up to Caddy for still making a manual trans. car At 72 years old, I would still love to own and drive a car like this!!! Now if I only had 100 grand to spend!!
Awesome as always
Dude 😂you’re by far the best when reviewing a car!
Those numbers are hella impressive. Damnnnn
Love this guy best car reviews💯🕺🏾✅🐐🐐
Just a beautiful beautiful performance machine a that sound coming from the exhaust pipe I really like it 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
8:50. It is a filthy beast!🦍
Heck yeah!
@Joe. Dude another amazing CT5 V Blackwing video.... :) I was wondering if you have asked competitors of Cadilac and Chevorlet why none of them offer a PDR System especially in 2023. I believe Chevy debut the PDR in the 2016 C7 Corvette Z51 as an option . Especally when car MFG's market a car as a Drivers Car for the track and/or daily use I believe they should all offer it. Thanks Tim
Joe's Raitti shirt is made by Adidas. That means "All day I dream about sedans".
Hey Raiti's Rides How Are You Can You Make The 2023 Cadillac XT4 Premium Luxury! Great Video Have A Nice Day
Great review Joe! I don't know if I love or hate the color, but I do know I love the car's overall look and performance. I would have thought this car was more comparable to the M5CS, while the CT4-V Blackwing was more comparable to the M3CS, but I guess not. I think I'd take the Caddy over the Bimmer (ignoring price) and this is coming from a BMW guy.
yea me too i was confused i thought he mistyped ct4 with ct5
Awesome job driving that orange 🍊 beast, Joe !!!🔥👍🏼♥️
The Blackwing is so beautiful 🔥🔥🔥
I’m so glad that you think so!
Beautiful family corvette 😂 . Great review as always 👌
That's crazy I know that street lol. Would be a wild ride. Let me know next time 👍
I have a blaze orange blackwing it's a beast
What can I say 😮I just love this car if we had this baby here in Australia i will buy it today thank you very much great show
I’m loving the style of these new Cadillacs there killing it … I currently own a 2016 Audi A3 1.8t premium… thinking about the ct4 🤔 but not sure because GM is known to Killing off there Loved Models
"they're killing it" and "killing off their most loved models".
I'm waiting for the next generation ct5, because I really like those long horizontal touch screen like the one in lyriq. Unfortunately, current ct5 doesn't have one
It will be interesting to see how it turns out.
Great car I love my 23 v 5 Black wing it has everything I want and need
I love ct5-v blackwing look so good 👍 and Joe and Lori and Steve and keep up the good work and I love the video lot real true 👍 💯💯💯
Wow I would love one of these... not hot on the colour but it is nice but not for me.
you do know some really nice roads to go on throttle your the boss Joe.
Nice looking car
V8 supercharged goodness
I love the Cadillac V Blackwing, what a machine, especially with a manual transmission, there's not to many vehicles of that caliber that still have the manual transmission, and plus, to me, the Cadillac line up looks a lot better than BMW, and plus my mom has a Cadillac CT4 sport, 2021, and that's an amazing car, and that's all she's ever had is Cadillac, for 15 years or more, plus the Cadillac CT5 V Blackwing can travel the length of a football field every second
Thanks you too I appreciate it is amazing
Sumschmuck: 19" That's It?!
Raiti: Yes.
😂😂 my man. Cold as ice. Funny AF. Thanks for as always the Better review. And making my day start with laughs. Keep 'em comin'! 💪🏽✌️
Joe- how about including a link to your review of the car you're comparing this too (M3CS)?
This color is gorgeous 😮😮😩🙌🏾
There's some funky design choices going on around the C pillar.
This is very true!
You and you wife are the best and i love the Bulge joke great review.
I have a plan to buy this vehicle sooner or later of this year for me to afford one Joe.
Why some people paying mark up Dodge Charger SRT Hell cats this is way better!
You are so very right!
it looks like refresh is coming for 2024. I wonder if V BW will get the same update. Interior update alone will make this car that much better
wow, I see three pedals, I watch!
My kind of guy!
Hi Joe , I am a owner of a 22 CT5 V BW . I love my BW ,but I have mustang blood running thru my veins since I was born. I couldn't pull the trigger on a Shelby GT 500 w/out a manual trans. You've driven both which one would you choose BW or Gt500?
Both lol if possible
Hell yes!! I’d love one.
Love it!!!
Nice watch Joe!! Which one is that? I’d love to add it to my collection!
It’s a citizen Eco drive
I totally freaking love this car
This Cadillac chases Hellcats! Congrats to all who manage to buy one of these. When you're not driving through the twisty bits, you can play a nice 80s mix CD. Maybe start with "Can't Fight This Feeling" by REO Speedwagon, and progress to "Pride And Joy" by Stevie Ray Vaughan. With all our ICE rides going away, there is "Don't Know What You Got Till It's Gone" by Cinderella.
Definitely liking the orange paint job - I would add the bronze wheels with black lug nuts and black center cap to really make it stand out.
I'm going to echo here what I wrote on your earlier video of the 2022 car:
The funny thing about this car is that everybody who reviews it keeps hammering home that 6 speed manual. Yet you actually give up a bunch of other more modern stuff by NOT going with the automatic such as having faster shifts and more actual gears to work with. There's a reason why in the proper racing space paddle shifters became a thing - they do a better job, especially on cars with a dual clutch transmission. Combine all the other modern advancements like traction control, stability control, AWD, automated braking, hill assist etc. and you begin to realize moving that shifter yourself is actually a major step backwards, never mind if your commute involves stop and go traffic for 2 hours/day each way where you're just punching that clutch in and out without a break. Give that poor left foot of yours a rest.
Having said all that I can understand the guys who get the stick shift, because driving it in more normal conditions does make this car rather unique compared to it's competition, and possibly a better deal as well. But I would only get this in a stick if I already had another ride to handle the stop and go city traffic. You really cannot go wrong with either choice, I'm just torn when it comes to going manual on a daily driver.
So funny I was checking out this review, I walk down stairs and there is a commercial for this exact same car on the 6pm news
Great review and video. What a car. Screw EV”s.
Great review 👍
what's the mileage?
love this, the ONLY car I would trade my Chevy SS Holden manual for, but its gotta be the manual.
America should have more manual transmission vehicles like this! More control and focus for the Driver.
This is an amazing machine
