Cadillac XLR

[hjr]

I spotted on of these the other day. In red. It was quite the head turner. I didnt even realize this car had made it into production, but its very nice! It sports a 320hp 4.6l DOHC V8.

No actual pictures but this is basically what I saw:

Any thoughts on the car?

Nice car...wayyyyyy too much money though

hmmmm profile shot looks like the first SLK Roadsters that came out...I like to concept of the car, but as Redlyne mentioned...a lil too much moola for a Caddilac...

[Stratus_Power]

its pretty hot! soo wide.... but I think the painjob is pretty shitty, and yes.. too much $$$ for a Caddy.

XLR. vs SL500.. hmm... Sl hands down

How much does it cost?

And is the 1001HP 16Cylinder Caddy coming into production any time soon?

Yes yes ..

Why $120,000 for a GM ? :rofl: :rofl:

don't get me wrong .. it is a nice car .. and still $5,000 less then a super nice BMW 645 Ci Cab, and $20,000 less then a Benz SL500 ..

but . what is the point ? :dunno:

Even a "Timex" watch with the newest technology .. and with 14K gold on it ... it will be a nice watch .... but .. it will still be a Timex.

I am sure mnay retired men/women will buy it as a 75 yr old birthday gift ! :rofl:

Ditch the junk Northstar and drop in the LS6. What was GM thinking:thumbsdow Corvette chassis but they put the pussy Northstar in it. Could you imagine pulling up next to to one of those and hearing the lumpiness and blower whine of a Davenport stroker LS6.


The CTS-V gets my :thumbsup: That's a Cadillac I would drive.:bigpimp: :eek:

It's a nice car but GM really made it for rich old capitalists who would rather die then buy import... lol the last thing we need it a bunch of senile old men driving around 320 horses... oh well, i like the style... cadillacs also got that crazy cien or whatever super car coming out i think!

112k.. i have real pictures of it from the dealership. we were there getting a oil change for my dads caddy when we spotted it. it is a beauty! if it didnt cost 112 i bet you would see alot more of them on the road. they are extremely quick saw 3 on the street already.

Truth ! they are nice car ..but .$112 base, plus fee, options, tax... that is a lots of a GM ! even a Lexus SC430, is too expensive for $90,000 .. but then $90K .. is more reasonable then $120K .. and at least.. a Toyota .. that is why .. we see a SC430 everywhere .. if Toyota set that SC430 to $120K .. I am sure . we won't see one on the street !

However, it is GM .. will see .. in 1 or 2 yrs .. may like other Cad, offer $10,000 or even $20,000 cash rebate .. :(

i'll probably depreciate 30-40% like all the other caddy in a year or 2..

[ninspeed]

its fun to drive too :D, not a slug ill tell you that. But for 112k, i did not puch it TOO hard (wink wink)
