It's one of the most perfect cars I've ever driven. Makes the M5 of any generation look like an absolute joke. Blackwing vs. F90 is almost comical, the Blackwing sounded better, had better suspension (more agile and more comfortable at the same time), manual available and it's actually a fantastic feeling manual, etc.
In this class, I'd take G80 M3 over the CT-4 because I know Cadillac's 6 cylinder engine sucks and the G80 is wonderful to drive. Enough to get past how much I hate its styling.

You lost me at "makes all M5 of any generation look like an absolute joke"! Whatever, dude.
Let's play the "speak with your wallet" game again:
2023 (January to May) sales:
- CT5 4,593 units
- 5 series 7,536 units
2022 full year sales:
- CT5 15,896 units
- 5 series 20,857 units
I wish OEMs would break out the M and Blackwing numbers but I suspect the % difference would hold true and likely to be even more starkly shitty for the Cadillac.
