From Jay Leno’s Garage.

Jay Leno sits down with Parker Nirenstein from Vehicle Virgins to witness a true "American BMW"—a Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing pushed to a staggering 900 crank horsepower.

From the factory, the Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing is a masterpiece, essentially a "four-seater Corvette" delivering 668 HP. But Parker wanted more. In this episode, Jay explores Parker’s personal daily driver, modified with a massive 2.6L Magnuson supercharger and racing headers to produce 750 HP at the wheels, which translates to nearly 900 at the crank.

Despite this astronomical power, the car remains a perfect "Q-ship": unassuming to the untrained eye, but capable of outrunning a BMW M5 CS around Virginia International Raceway. Jay and Parker dive into why the 6-speed manual gearbox is the "last of its kind" and how GM’s MagneRide 4.0 creates a suspension that reacts every single millisecond.
