The 2023 Cadillac CT5-V adds three new exterior colors to its palette: Midnight Steel Metallic, Radiant Red Tintcoat, and Argent Silver Metallic. Here’s our first look at the new Silver hue.
Assigned RPO code GXD and touch-up paint code WA-130H, Argent Silver Metallic is one of nine exterior colors offered on this performance-oriented variant of the CT5 luxury sedan, which include:
- Summit White
- Black Raven
- Blaze Orange Metallic
- Wave Metallic
- Electric Blue
- Rift Metallic
- Radiant Red Tintcoat (new for 2023)
- Argent Silver Metallic (new for 2023)
- Midnight Steel Metallic (new for 2023)
The Argent Silver Metallic color is an extra-cost item that adds an additional $625 to the price of the luxury sedan and can be combined with all interior colorways.
For reference, here are all three available interior colorways offered on the 2023 CT5-V:
- Jet Black with Jet Black accents
- Whisper Beige with Jet Black accents
- Sedona Sauvage with Jet Black accents
The 2023 Cadillac CT5-V arrived with just a handful of changes and updates over the 2022 model,  including a new Driver Assist Package as standard and Bronze Accent Package. However, the 2023 CT5 loses the Diamond Sky Special Edition Package, replacing it with the new CT5 Blue Accent package.
The 2023 CT5-V is powered by a higher-output version of the twin-turbo 3.0L V6 LGY, rated at 360 horsepower and 405 pound-feet of torque, and connects to the GM 10-speed automatic transmission. Rear-wheel-drive is standard and all-wheel drive is optional.
The Cadillac CT5 rides on the GM Alpha 2 platform, which is shared with the Cadillac CT4. Production kicked off at the GM Lansing Grand River plant on July 18th, 2022. Production of the 2024 model year will start on July 10th, 2023.

Old news about a horrible paint colour.
No accounting for taste, I like it, that’s why I chose the (color!) Argent Silver.
