While the 2025 Cadillac CT4-V Blackwing ushers in only a few updates and changes for most of the vehicle’s features, the palette of CT4-V Blackwing colors gets a significant overhaul for the new model year.
The 2025 Cadillac CT4-V Blackwing colors see the retirement of four exterior paints offered on the 2024 model year. Three new paint colors join the lineup as indirect replacements, which you can check out in the images of the current paint colors below:
Argent Silver Metallic (GXD)
Black Raven (GBA)
Coastal Blue Metallic (GJV)
Cyber Yellow Metallic (GCP)
Deep Space Metallic (GAI)
Drift Metallic (GAE)
Magnus Metal Frost (GBL)
Radiant Red Tintcoat (GNT)
Summit White (GAZ)
Typhoon Metallic (GBW)
For reference purposes, the retired colors include Black Diamond Tricoat (paint code GLK), Mercury Silver Metallic (GKA), Midnight Steel Metallic (GXU) and Velocity Red (G7C). The trio of new CT4-V Blackwing hues consists of Deep Space Metallic (paint code GAI), Drift Metallic (paint code GAE) and Typhoon Metallic (paint code GBW).
Out of a total of 10 available CT4-V Blackwing colors for 2025, two are offered at no additional charge, Black Raven (paint code GBA) and Summit White (paint code GAZ). One color is offered only as part of an optional package. Other Cadillac CT4-V Blackwing colors are extra-charge, most priced at $625 but with the single tintcoat color costing $1,225. The table following summarizes the details:
| Paint Color | Color Code | Cost | CT4-V Blackwing |
|---|---|---|---|
| Argent Silver Metallic | GXD | $625 | A |
| Black Raven | GBA | $0 | A |
| Coastal Blue Metallic | GJV | $625 | A |

- Available exclusively with Petit Pataud Special Edition (ZLZ)
Notably, the 2025 Cadillac CT4-V Blackwing colors differ to some extent from the paints offered for the “regular” 2025 Cadillac CT4 but are almost identical to those on the 2025 Cadillac CT4-V. Most significantly, the Blackwing gets the Collector Series package of the Petit Pataud Special Edition (RPO code ZLZ) with the exclusive Magnus Metal Frost (paint code GBL) exterior paint color.
Pricing for the sedan model starts at $63,590, as previously uncovered by GM, for the standard RWD configuration equipped with the Tremec six-speed manual transmission. Opting for the GM 10-speed automatic transmission (RPO code MHU) instead costs $2,275 extra.
The 2025 Cadillac CT4-V Blackwing continues to be motivated by the twin-turbocharged 3.6L V6 LF4 gasoline engine developing 472 horsepower and 445 pound-feet of torque. The GM Alpha 2 platform provides structure under the body panels, with production taking place at the GM Lansing Grand River plant in Michigan.
Comments
A nice car in dire need of an interior refresh. It still has the 8 inch display my 2016 Chevy Cruze had. Ridiculous.
Yeah, the 25 CT5 has that gorgeous full screen, it would really help the CT4. A shame GM is letting this one die, great looking and performing vehicle. I had a 2022 for 18 months, traded it for a C8. Hard to regret but I do miss it. Saw a radiant red one in the showroom when I recently purchased my wife an XT6. Stunning! I Only serious complaint on my 22 was lack of a front camera, surprised I did not destroy the splitter (as the “sensors” were useless). Wonder if they’ve even added that on the 25?
One of the best handling cars to come from Cadillac. What a shame that they didn’t upgrade the dash like the CT5
Come on GM get your act together
GM needs to get a lot together. The CT4 and CT5 are likely the only vehicles they make in the “fun to drive” category (minus the Corvette). The Cadillacs are drivers cars, but I don’t want a Cadillac, just like I don’t want a Bimmer or a Benz. We just passed by a long list of SUV’s and choose a used 2023 Kia Stinger GT Line for my wife. Over 300 hp, comfortable and gets high 20’s mpg for her mixed driving cycle. I would have liked to been able to get a Buick, but no sedan, and/or no true drivers car. A Buick Avista sedan would have been nice.
I am all in on the rather bold new colors. Somehow, I always end up with white or black cars because it seems like those 2 colors and some sort of silver has been the only choices for the last few years.
Can we all prepare a collective scream, because you just know it’s coming. GM has the darling of world class coupes in it’s lineup, and just like that, one day the heading here will be that it’s been dropped… So, just waiting for it… I wish I had one of these.. before it’s gone.
