I was going to agree with the Halo car....if that car wasn't $100,000 then there would ppl who would not look at it. The same argument comes up now and again with the Corvette....its a lot of car for the money...it can run with a porsche, ferrari....but the guys who buy the latter two won't be a vette because its too cheap...
Besides, who ever said Cadillac didn't have racing history better go check on that...
1956? then stayed out until 2002 and lost in the lemans series... you know what they say about being 2nd... it is another way of saying loser.
Ahh, you're a businessman. I must have missed what you drive. Care to enlighten us on that?
I could drive a yugo or an S500 or a X (where X = what ever car you think I own). I pur chase cars based on what I think not what everyone else thinks, and in the end, what I drive is irrelevant to the point.
I want fast? I have that covered. I want quick and fast, I Have that covered. Snow on the ground? I have that covered.
The XLR and XLR-V are halo cars for the Cadillac brand. They are NOT volume vehicles. The Bowling Green plant also makes plenty of Corvettes, so XLR sales are just icing on the cake.
edit:
you know what, i change my mind. You guys want to pay $100k, more power to you!

Lol....you're telling a group of XLR enthusiasts that you buy cars based on what you think not by what everyone else thinks. Yeah, we all know XLR owners got their cars because everyone in the neighborhood happens to have one.
Seriously, if you drove anything halfway descent why wouldn't you tell someone that asked (irrelevant or not)? There are guys on Ferrarichat that have a half dozen Ferraris and post photos and aren't afraid to do so. Its not like the guy asked for your CC info or SS #.
That aside, news flash....all luxury cars are overpriced.
What the MSRP states and what a dealer is willing to sell a car to you for are two completely different things in case you didn't know that.

well meet the first guy that doesn't.
as the old 7up commercial said, never have, never will. As I have stated on other car board, i have zero to prove to anyone. The people that know are by my own choosing. The ferrari guys want to post thier collection, more power to them! I don't post anything
as for MSRP and dealer selling car. I am well aware of all the hold backs, manufacture to dealer incetives etc to know full well about that

Cadillac did well in the 1954 Carrera Panamerica, performance wise they were the first company to introduce the first american V8 engine in 1914 and there was the V16 they first introduced in 1929.
