I will say the Cadillac instrument cluster is better as the BMW boomerang gauges are still amongst the worst in the industry. The rest of the interior looks very Buick but I think it's a bit of a step up from past generations that were full of piano black and it's no longer the deal breaker that it used to be. The last gen ATS-V had by far the cheapest and worst looking instrument cluster of any car build in the last decade.

CT5-V Blackwing Engine to Live on in New Escalade V
Despite Cadillac saying the CT4 and CT5 would be the last generation of gas-powered V cars, spy shots and videos show the Escalade with what is clearly the handbuilt 6.2L Supercharged V8.

Damn. I'm not one of the guys that cares a whole whole lot about interiors but that's nice rental car versus space ship right there. Bottom one looks way more special and "cool" in terms of how everything is integrated together.

This is a typical cddy performance car, a lot of horspower but cant get a great 0-60 because its too powerful and the interior is blah. I dont trust cddy reliability either. The M550I is faster 0-60 with a lot less HP and quality is no close

Don’t know if this is still true but Cadillacs usually start falling apart after 30-40k miles.

What is with magazines not being able to replicate BMW stated M550i 0-60 of 3.6? Car&Driver could only get 3.9. Any media been able to pull it off? The Blackwing was right there at 3.5 with rwd. CT5 Blackwing walks M550i at drag strip and road course. Last edited by M3WC; 01-17-2022 at 01:29 AM.. |

This is not an AWD car. You don't understand what this car is about. You might want to look for an electric car, they have better acceleration.

I know it is true that BMWs start falling apart around that mileage, and more specifically their oil gaskets start disintegrating. I had to pay $$$$ to replace most of my gaskets. |

With all due respect I own a Corvette Z06 M7 so I know what its about. The Cadillac has too much power for the car design and cant compare quality with the competition. I have owned enough Caddies to know.
