On the inside wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto come as standard on both, as does wireless phone charging. Only the CT5-V Blackwing gets a head-up display and Surround Vision with recording as standard. Both also get a configurable 12-inch instrument cluster with a special ‘track screen’ mode for lap and quarter mile timing as well.
Can you have one? Well, American buyers can reserve the CT4-V and CT5-V Blackwing models for $59,990 or $84,990 starting. UK buyers will be looking at a hefty increase when the costs of importing and registering are accounted for. Even throwing in an extra cost of £20,000 for getting a CT5-V Blackwing from America to the UK, on the road duty- and VAT-paid, it’ll set you back comfortably under £90,000. That’ll be around £10,000 under the £98,000 price of admission for an M5 Competition and an entire Alpine A110 less than the £140,000 M5 CS. A CT4-V Blackwing landed and licenced should be well under £65,000, or £10,000 less than an entry-priced M3. America, delivering bang for your buck as ever.
