Image Credit: Roth Cadillac.Cadillac's smallest Blackwing sedan is nearing the end of its run, and one rare example is still waiting for a buyer. A new 2024 Cadillac CT4-V Blackwing Arrival Edition is currently listed at Roth Cadillac in Erie, Pennsylvania, with a sizable discount.The car carries an original MSRP of $90,255, but the dealer is advertising it for $79,890. That works out to a reduction of $10,365 on a limited-edition, manual-transmission sport sedan that is becoming increasingly difficult to find new.This is not a standard CT4-V Blackwing sitting unnoticed at the back of a lot. According to GM Authority, the car may be the last new 2024 Mondrian Edition-series CT4-V Blackwing still available in the United States.AdvertisementAdvertisementFor enthusiasts, the appeal is obvious. The CT4-V Blackwing combines rear-wheel drive, a twin-turbocharged V6, a six-speed manual transmission, and a rare special-edition package at a time when cars like this are disappearing quickly.A Rare Arrival Edition In Mercury SilverImage Credit: Roth Cadillac.The Arrival Edition was one of three Mondrian-themed special editions offered for the 2024 model year. It was created to celebrate Cadillac's V-Series heritage and gave the CT4-V Blackwing a distinctive appearance package.This example is finished in Mercury Silver Metallic, a color exclusive to the Arrival Edition. GM Authority reports that Cadillac built only 66 CT4-V Blackwings in this shade across the entire 2022-through-2026 production run.The package adds bold side graphics, red accents, numbered trim, and other model-specific details. Paired with a Jet Black interior and Adrenaline Red accents, the car has a more aggressive look than a typical silver luxury sedan.Serious Performance Under The SkinEvery CT4-V Blackwing uses Cadillac's twin-turbocharged 3.6-liter LF4 V6. Output is rated at 472 horsepower and 445 lb-ft of torque, sent to the rear wheels.AdvertisementAdvertisementThis particular car is equipped with the enthusiast-choice six-speed manual transmission. That alone makes it a standout in a luxury performance segment increasingly dominated by automatics and electrification.The Blackwing formula also includes Magnetic Ride Control, Brembo braking hardware, an electronic limited-slip differential, and performance traction systems. It remains one of the most focused driver's sedans sold by an American luxury brand.Expensive Options, Big DiscountImage Credit: Roth Cadillac.The Arrival Edition package reportedly adds $22,000 to the options list. This car also includes equipment such as the Performance Data and Video Recorder, Technology Package, power sunroof, ventilated seats, and 18-inch Satin Graphite wheels.Carbon fiber content is also part of the appeal, helping separate the car from more ordinary CT4 variants. Inside, the sedan balances serious performance intent with premium features like a head-up display and upgraded cabin tech.AdvertisementAdvertisementThe discount likely reflects its unusual position as a 2024 model still sitting new in 2026. Even so, nearly $11,000 off a rare manual Blackwing is not something buyers see every day.A Future Collectible Hiding In Plain Sight?The CT4-V Blackwing occupies a special place in Cadillac's modern lineup. It is compact, powerful, rear-wheel drive, and available with a manual gearbox, which makes it feel increasingly like a last-of-its-kind performance sedan.Its niche appeal may be part of why this example remains unsold. A nearly $80,000 manual Cadillac sedan is not a mainstream purchase, even with a discount.For the right buyer, though, that same rarity could make it highly desirable later. As CT4 production winds down, this discounted Arrival Edition may be one of the final chances to buy a brand-new Blackwing with three pedals.AdvertisementAdvertisementIf you want more stories like this, follow Guessing Headlights on Yahoo so you don't miss what's coming next.
