Mark Zuckerberg bragged about his ‘raucous’ daily driver that’s left gearheads shocked and impressed

Mark Zuckerberg has bragged about his daily driver in a move that has left gearheads both shocked and impressed.

The Facebook founder made the admission whilst appearing on Theo Von’s podcast.

Among the things he discussed, he touched upon his choice of a daily driver – a ‘raucous’ Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing.

This isn’t the first time Zuckerberg has discussed this subject, and based on the reaction he’s received, we doubt it will be the last.

Mark Zuckerberg gets candid about his choice of daily driver

When you’re a celebrity with a big bank account like Mark Zuckerberg, you can afford to splurge every now and then.

The 40-year-old businessman has indulged in cars in the past.

You may recall that he got West Coast Customs to make him a custom Porsche minivan.

However, for a man with a net worth of $184 billion, he’s surprisingly frugal.

Some of the unexpectedly modest cars in his possession include a Honda Fit, an Acura TSX, and a Volkswagen Golf GTI.

So, with that in mind, the Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing is something of a radical departure.

The CEO first made the admission about his choice of car last year.

He was promoting Meta’s new Ray-Ban glasses in a video, in which he asked the device where he parked his car.

When asked what he was driving in the comments section, he answered: “Mostly Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing these days but sometimes other things.”

This was evidently a topic that Theo Von wanted to dig deeper into when he had Zuckerberg on his podcast.

What makes a Cadillac CT5-V such an interesting choice?

Zuckerberg’s admission that a CT5-V is his daily driver may take people by surprise.

Let’s just say, it’s a powerful car – capable of cranking out 668hp and 659Ib-ft of torque.

Capable of going to 60mph in 3.4 seconds and topping out at 200mph, this is a real speed demon.

Whilst we get the appeal of the car, Zuckerberg’s approach to car purchasing up to this point hasn’t indicated he’s been feeling the need for speed.

But then again, everybody is full of surprises, even one of the most famous men in the world.

And in addition to that, it’s a manual he’s driving.

Given that Americans have been teased before on the subject of manual cars, it’s nice to see that Zuckerberg is defying expectations by learning to drive a shift stick.

“I feel like you want your car to have as much horsepower as your helicopter, as a rule of thumb,” Zuckerberg said.

We’ve all thought that before, right? Totally relatable. The post Mark Zuckerberg bragged about his ‘raucous’ daily driver that’s left gearheads shocked and impressed appeared first on Supercar Blondie.
