There is room available in between the backrest of the seats, the consol space could be smaller and used for the top and suspension modules, the motor could have been installed in the trunk wheel housing area close to the...

    Strange GM, XLR headlights xlrating. That looks to me a some kind of testing for other models ( a Pontiac soltice test?), as the so call headlights dont fit at all and has no looks for fitting the XLR headlights housing. The black painted grill and its Cadillac crest, the round foglamps and...

    John. Bravo…. it is an other USA car made by the Maserati designers that did not been profitable and successful in term of sales. Both cars are alike, wondering if its an Allante customised, however both are nice cars for their time. JAN:thumbsup

    Is the XLR just another Allante?

    Hi Bill Well and all said, I like also Jesda poster about the allante, its emotions pulsations are also easy to get about the feelings of driving a Cadillac. It is sad that both models XLR and Allante fails, as contrary what GM planned for those models, hoping that the next roadster will be...
