SavageGeese gave the 2023 Cadillac CT4-V Blackwing a strong 87/100 score, calling it "brilliant" and one of their favorite cars currently for sale. The standout strengths are its intuitive cabin tech with a fully digital gauge cluster displaying performance metrics, excellent livability with low seating position and forgiving bucket seats, and genuinely engaging performance with a perfect pedal box for heel-toe downshifting and a short-throw TR6060 shifter. The major caveat is value—while the $60k sticker price undercuts the BMW M3 by $15k, SavageGeese emphasizes the value exists only at MSRP and warns against dealer markups, noting buyers should go with BMW if paying over sticker. This is the car for manual-transmission enthusiasts who can buy at sticker price and want a balanced, driver-focused sedan that outperforms more expensive competitors in almost every dimension except engine character and interior space.
