Vehicle Description
2006 Cadillac XLR $24,995
On the shortlist of modern cars that instantly became a classic is this 2006 Cadillac XLR-V. Low productions numbers, hardtop convertible body, and a supercharged V8 come together under America's most prestigious continuous marque. If you missed your opportunity at it the first time, this low mileage example, with its showroom shine, is the next best thing.
This car was priced at over $100,000 when new, and you know exactly the reason why. Equal parts Cadillac luxury and Corvette performance, the XLR-V was the ultimate expression of a modern American exotic machine. This one is truly setting its sights on the Mercedes SL AMG crowd with a great looking hardtop profile that looks like a sleek coupe with the roof in place. And with the touch of a button, the hardtop disappears to create a wedge profile that you could swear was always meant to be a roadster. The factory Light Tarnished Silver Metallic paint ads to the elegance of this rare car. Plus, it really brings out the specific V-sport elements like the mesh grille, quad exhaust tips, and the exclusive 19-inch wheels.

Inside, the luxury and performance image continue with a luxurious set of bucket seats. Cadillac was really thinking about its customers, because details like the suede fabric inserts means never having to think about hopping in while wearing shorts. These dual buckets are power adjustable to make sure they strike the perfect balance between all-day comfort and keeping you secure during spirited driving. As the top-of-the-line Cadillac this came with all the best features, including real wood trim, key-less entry, key-less ignition, power windows, power locks, power steering, dual front airbags, side airbags, cruise control, and head-up display. An upgraded Sony touchscreen infotainment system ads to the enjoyment of this rare car. All your essential controls are at your fingertips right on the leather-wrapped steering wheel. Best of all, the dual zone automatic climate control and heated seats mean you can take the top down nearly any time of year and still stay comfortable.
While all of those features make this a great luxury machine, it's what's under the hood that makes it an instant classic. The XLR-V used Cadillac's special Northstar DOHC V8 engine displacing 4.4-liters, and on top is a supercharger that turns this into a 443 hp big power machine. This was more power than the standard C6 Corvette on sale in 2006, and the luxurious Cadillac can easily beat its benchmark relative to 60 mph, delivering the silky-smooth performance around town that you love from a true Cadillac. But the moment you want to hit the open road, the six-speed automatic grabs a lower gear, the supercharger instantly comes to life, and the dual exhaust gives a mighty roar. When combined with the vented four-wheel disc brake package w/ABS, this is the truly Cadillac of sports cars.
Cadillac barely produced over 2000 XLR-Vs during the entire production run. Here is speed, rarity, and beauty in a package that's far below the original window sticker.
