Breakthrough ....@ New York

Quote:
Previously seen in Super Bowl ads, the new Cadillac XLR-V will alight on the stage at the New York Auto Show, stuffed to the gills with a 4.4-liter supercharged V-8 engine and 440 horsepower. The V-Series version of Caddy's hardtop roadster gets not only the new supercharged Northstar engine, and a 0-60 mph time of less than 5.0 seconds, it also gets the first rear-drive application of GM's new six-speed automatic transmission. The XLR-V also wears a wire-mesh grille, 19-inch 10-spoke wheels, and ebony and aluminum trim in the cabin. Bigger brakes and a recalibrated Magnetic Ride Control are also included. The XLR-V, Cadillac says, is the most powerful Cadillac ever produced.

I still can't say I like the car but at least the wheels are finally looking good.

Re: Breakthrough ....@ New York

I think this car looks great. I really like that the lower grill doesn't have the black plastic inserts on the side like the regular XLR.

Note The Sharp Edge From Back To Front, This A Sharp Improvement Over Current Design. I Like It, Wish My Standard Xlr Had This Look, It's The Most Significant Change In The Car, And Cannot Be Copied, Unless You Want To Change The Rear, Door, Front Panels On Both Sides.

Maybe I Made A Mistake, I Did Not Think The Sharp Edge Was Noticed On My Xlr, But I Looked At My Car And It's There, Maybe The Silver Coler Brings It Out More, Or There Is Something Different About The Look, The Door Open Slot Or Something. It Looks Different.

Me too - probably Saturday.

The car looks great. Tailpipes look like an afterthought - pulled off the Corvette parts shelf and slapped on.

Re: Breakthrough ....@ New York

I'm waiting 'til next week. It'll be too crowded over the holiday weekend. I usually go during the week.
