2024 Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing - Supercharged LT4 750WHP American Super Sedan
2024 Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing (V Blackwing)
About This Build
The CT5-V Blackwing is the greatest American performance sedan ever made - and it comes with a manual transmission. The supercharged 6.2L LT4 V8 responds incredibly well to a smaller supercharger pulley, headers, and a tune. 750WHP is easy and completely reliable on pump gas. This car weighs 4,000 lbs but the magnetic ride suspension and Brembo brakes mean it handles like a car 500 lbs lighter. The 10-speed auto shifts in 80ms but the 6-speed Tremec manual is the enthusiast choice. GM knocked it out of the park with this one.
