Thanks for the info, wardlws. I didn't realize that about the key fob.

What do we think about this one? The color is really nice and the paint looks good. Are those aftermarket wheels? 2006 Cadillac XLR | eBay

I really like the blue steel & shale combination you have. It seems to be pretty rare, and I would like to have that when I get ready to buy. (Weirdly, there's one in that combination on ebay right now. I'm going to post the link in the for-sale forum.) Looks like you are not too far from...

Happy belated welcome, Another Sean! You are ahead of me, since I still haven't settled on an XLR to buy. I see you are a Stinger man, though, and I have a K900 that's dear to my heart. I've always understood it's kin to the Stinger underneath, so Kia greetings to you. People always assume a...

I think this sounds really interesting! If I had a car, I'd join right in. But just in case I never do get one, I guess I better not make the investment.

Congrats! You are for sure right about the '09s. They are rare and usually pricey.

Well, I'm not sure if this is a good thing or not. It certainly gives the model some exposure, but Hoovie's famous for his hoopties and this one's in that series. He shows how a previous owner duct-taped a fender! :giggle:

Thanks for the replies, guys. mickeytee, I'll be very interested to see what you get from the dealer. As regards shades of white--I've never been taken with the pearl whites. To me, it almost looks a bit beige. If I were switching, I'd want a straight-up real white.

Folks, here's something that puzzles me. I wanted to look up this white XLR in the registry, and found that the VIN shows as Black Raven. Could a previous owner have had it painted? Or is someting else at work here? The car has pretty much a blank registry record, so that's no help. Ad...

Rather a pretty example, but with some surprising equipment. Wonder if they used an agency for that suspension, or if it was a private placement? Head of display Adopted suspension 2006 cadillac xlr for sale - Austin, TX - craigslist

This one seems like a good one at a good price. Maybe a little too good? I'm a bit suspicious. Inventory | Jeff Bryan Chevrolet, LLC

Top sure seems creaky in the video! Wouldn't a little oil there help sell the car?

What is going on with this car's top? Is that vinyl on there or just paint? 2006 Cadillac XLR | eBay
