Re: Bought an XLR-V? Check in!

I'm not a huge fan of the burgundy red, which I've always found somewhat geriatric (to me it is more at home on a Buick than a Cadi sportscar), but after seeing it with a black instead of tan interior, I have to say you've got a gorgeous car there!

I'm holding out for about a year and then I'm going to try to get into a black/black V. I saw a 2006 black/black one at Ehlers last weekend. someone earlier complained about the "soft" paint: I could not believe the orange peel on the '06 in the showroom!!! Do they spend more than 15 minutes painting these $100k cars or what? I'm a big Cadi booster, but that's a pretty lame job they've done, and even more so because (a) it reeks of inattention to detail, and (b) it belies low tolerances in the QC process for these cars. Rather unfortunate for a halo car. Hopefully they've gotten their act together somewhat for 2007?
