Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

Miami is a tough crowd. If your car isn’t loud, fast, or wrapped in some wild color-shifting chrome, you might as well be invisible.
But Cadillac didn’t come to South Florida to blend in. It came to announce — loudly — that American muscle isn’t dead. It just got smarter with the 2025 Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing.
Let’s start with the numbers of this $103,000 sedan. A supercharged 6.2-liter V8 pushing 668 horsepower; zero to 60 in 3.6 seconds; top speed north of 200 mph. This isn’t some corporate badge-engineered sedan pretending to be sporty. This is a full-blown, tire-roasting, unapologetic performance monster.
And yet — what really impresses me isn’t just the raw power, it’s the balance. The engineers behind this CT5-V didn’t just build it for drag races on the Palmetto. They built it for precision and adaptive suspension, with Brembo brakes that could probably stop a cruise ship.
This is performance you can feel every day — from the Julia Tuttle Causeway to the backroads of Coral Gables that delivers 15 miles per gallon combined.
Miami drivers also expect their cars to feel expensive, inside and out. Cadillac got the memo.
Step inside the 2025 CT5-V Blackwing and you’re greeted with an interior that rivals anything coming out of Germany or Italy. Carbon fiber, high-quality leather, and one of the cleanest digital cockpit layouts I’ve seen in a while. The 9K 33-inch LED display is bright enough to handle the brutal Florida sun, and the customization options are endless.
This is modern luxury with an edge.
Cadillac knows its buyers want to stand out, and the 2025 model delivers with bold color options, striking wheels, and strong performance cues that even visitors will love driving as a rental from the airport.
There’s something refreshing about seeing an American brand come to play at this level — especially with a car that respects both performance heritage and modern luxury expectations.
The CT5-V isn’t trying to copy anyone. It’s carving its own lane. Give it a spin and tell me what you think.
