Across 477 listed Cadillac CT5-Vs nationwide, the average markup is +$594 vs MSRP and 96% are listed at or below sticker, with a median advertised price of $71,025. Updated daily.
The CT5-V is the performance variant of the CT5 — a 360-horsepower 3.0L twin-turbo V6, AWD optional, with V-specific suspension tuning. The CT5-V Blackwing — sold separately — is the supercharged 6.2L V8 halo with 668 horsepower and a six-speed manual transmission.
Single trim on the standard CT5-V. The Blackwing is configured separately with limited production and significantly higher pricing.
Pricing on the standard CT5-V is competitive. Below-MSRP listings are common; manufacturer incentives apply. The Blackwing remains firm — Cadillac's last V8 sedan is in genuine end-of-an-era territory, and below-MSRP listings are uncommon. For buyers who specifically want the supercharged V8 manual-transmission Cadillac sedan, the Blackwing is the option and likely worth picking up while still in production.
