    2007 Cadillac XLR Hammer Package

    Why buy it? Lets assume you have a standard XLR, If you put that kind of money into one of these kits you now have a highly modified car. Can you get warranty service?

    outside temperature gage and fan question

    Most of my trips in the xlr are quite short and usually the temperature guage never changes from the temperature in the garage. If I go on a longer trip, say 1/2 hour the temp guage seems to update properly. Is this normal on the x? My other gm cars update constantly and immediately. Also is...
