"We've learned to expect greatness from any Cadillac sedan with 'Blackwing' in the name, and the CT4-V Blackwing is no exception. The turbocharged V6 hits hard, the chassis is delightfully athletic, and the thing looks pretty damn cool, too. Bonus points for the available manual transmission. The CT4-V Blackwing's overall rating is held back by its cramped rear quarters and tight trunk, as well as a touchscreen that falls short of cutting-edge. But if you're in it for the drive, this Caddy might strike you as a perfect 10."—Ranked #2 out of 5 Compact High-Performance Sedans

The CT4-V Blackwing wants to play with sport-sedan luminaries like the M3, and it's in the game thanks to blistering acceleration from the turbo V6, plus nimble handling from the athletic chassis. The manual shifter is a rare treat for those who enjoy three pedals.
The Blackwing remains compelling with the automatic, delivering acceleration that's on par with Germany's finest — and beating the Germans on price.
