The CT4-V Blackwing often gets overshadowed by its bigger, V8-powered sibling, but it’s a wicked competent, super quick sports sedan in its own right and shouldn’t be ignored. The 3.6-liter turbocharged V6 with its 472 horsepower and 445 pound-feet of torque never feels like a slouch and pairs well with the six-speed.
As a bonus, Cadillac gave the CT4-V Blackwing both automatic rev-matching and shift-without-lift technology. Both of these are super fun and the former is mega convenient on the street, especially in non-performance driving situations.
