2024 Cadillac CT5 V Blackwing H 1000

The Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing has already earned its reputation as one of the finest performance sedans of the modern era, combining a supercharged V8, rear-wheel drive, and an increasingly rare 6-speed manual transmission in a package engineered with genuine track capability. This example builds upon that foundation through Hennessey's H1000 package, increasing output to a claimed 1,000 horsepower and 966 lb-ft of torque while preserving the refinement, technology, and everyday drivability that distinguish the Blackwing from more single-minded performance machines. Showing just 3,711 miles, this serial No. 024 H1000 is finished in Summit White over a Natural Tan and Jet Black interior and is extensively equipped with some of Cadillac's most desirable factory options. Finished in Summit White, the CT5-V Blackwing's sharp, athletic bodywork blends understated executive styling with purposeful aerodynamic enhancements. Optional Carbon Fiber 1 and Carbon Fiber 2 Packages add an exposed carbon fiber front splitter, front dive planes, rocker extensions, rear diffuser, and raised rear spoiler, emphasizing the car's high-performance intent. The vented aluminum hood, gloss black mesh grille, vertical LED lighting signatures, quad exhaust outlets, and subtle V-Series badging remain unmistakably Cadillac, while Hennessey H1000 emblems discreetly distinguish this example from a standard Blackwing. Bronze-finished forged alloy wheels provide a contrast against the white exterior and reveal optional red Brembo brake calipers behind their multi-spoke design. Power comes from Cadillac's hand-built supercharged 6.2L LT4 V8, upgraded by Hennessey Performance through its H1000 package. The conversion includes a high-flow supercharger upgrade, high-flow air induction system, custom HPE camshaft, long-tube stainless steel headers, and a custom ECU calibration, resulting in a factory-rated 1,000 horsepower and 966 lb-ft of torque. A Tremec TR6060 6-speed manual transmission sends power to the factory electronic limited-slip differential, preserving the driver involvement that has become increasingly rare among modern high-performance sedans. Cadillac's sophisticated chassis combines Magnetic Ride Control 4.0, Performance Traction Management, electronic power steering, and massive Brembo performance brakes to deliver exceptional capability on both road and track while retaining the comfort expected of a luxury sedan. A serialized Hennessey engine plaque further identifies this example as H1000 build No. 024. The cabin strikes an impressive balance between contemporary luxury and focused performance. Optional full semi-aniline leather performance seats feature custom quilting, aggressive bolstering, and exposed carbon fiber seat backs, while Natural Tan leather contrasts beautifully with Jet Black trim, Alcantara accents, and extensive carbon fiber throughout the dashboard, doors, and center console. A leather-wrapped steering wheel with a red center marker incorporates Cadillac's V-Mode selector for instant access to customizable performance settings, while a digital instrument cluster provides dedicated V-Series performance displays. The aluminum-topped 6-speed manual shifter rises from a carbon fiber-trimmed console and is complemented by selectable Active Rev Match. Additional equipment includes the Performance Data and Video Recorder, Parking Package, heated and ventilated front seats, dual-zone automatic climate control, wireless smartphone integration, navigation, wireless charging, and a 16-speaker AKG premium audio system. As performance cars continue to evolve toward electrification and increasingly automated driving experiences, the CT5-V Blackwing stands among the last of a rapidly disappearing breed. Combining a hand-built supercharged V8, rear-wheel drive, and a 6-speed manual transmission with genuine luxury and cutting-edge chassis technology, it already occupies a special place in Cadillac's history. Enhanced through Hennessey's H1000 package and showing just 3,711 miles, this exceptional example elevates that formula even further, offering the rarity, capability, and driver involvement that define tomorrow's most desirable modern performance cars.
