Kinda like the black and blue interior with a matching blue exterior...but what's the incremental price?? I seem to recall about a $10k bump for stickers in prior special editions. I wonder what bespoke carbon fiber bits, seat stitching and color will cost?

It’s on Cadillacs website so seems legit. This is probably my favorite design and color combo of all the special editions. It’s limited to 101 for the 5 and 50 for the 4, so likely to have even more markup than the track editions.

It's good to see they will have a steering wheel with a blue stripe at the 12 o'clock.
I will need that part number asap lol

I don't mind it, blue/white interior is classy and works well if you own a boat.

I'd still rather have that new green, god thats a good colour.

Sticker kits and exclusive colors remind me too much of GM "performance" that I grew up with in the 70's and 80's (with a few exceptions...looking at you GN and GNX). Until there is a genuine performance package, my envy meter is on zero.

just noticed that the pictures don't show the dash on the 4. Still don't know if it's getting the big glass treatment like the 5.

You can see the 2 knobs for the volume and tuning. 2025 CT4's are confirmed to not get the updated 33" screen. Really my only complaint is the outdated infotainment tech. It works well, but 8" screen is too small for a 2020+ luxury car, especially these at $60-$90k.

That 5 looks absolutely sweet. I think the color combo of the grey/blue CF and the sky cool and blue inside are right up my alley.
That being said Frost indicates matte paint and I would never have a car with that type of paint. I would never drive it worried it would be dinged, scratched, etc. As someone else mentioned the markup for this im sure will be unreal and put it well beyond what I would ever consider paying for the car.

Still lovely to look at and admire from afar.
