From reading threads over the last 2 years, and from other research, I see where XLR owners used to have some get-togethers at various places around the country. Even looks like they used to have a national gathering. But it seems like they've all fizzled out. Is that true? If so, why? The...

Good info Thanks guys! That's exactly the feedback I need. When I first bought Red, SF told me they no longer offered any discount ins for 'collector' or 'specialty' cars. After seeing your experiences, I'm going to ask them again. And Haggarty sounds like they have WAY too many qualifications.

I'm looking for general info about insurance. I've had State Farm for decades now and have always been very satisfied with their service. They aren't the cheapest, but they actually do what they say they will, and without a bunch of BS nitpicking or attempting to squirm out of payment. Also...

The choice Obviously this is strictly a matter of opinion. I wrestled with the exact same decision before purchasing my 2006. I spent a year looking at both cars, reading reviews from car writers and owners. It just seemed to me the XLR owners were happier and more enthusiastic about their...

Quiet Quiet. Yep. I'd wanted a convertible for years, but did NOT want a ragtop. Did not want to noise, leaks, rot, etc etc... The decision came down to three cars in my price range: the Lexus SC, the Mercedes SL, and the XLR. Since I think the Lexus is UGLY, it was the XLR or the Merc. The...

Dallas Car Toys Pulled into the north Dallas Car Toys and there sat a 2006 black beauty. First XLR I'd seen in a month. The owner & I compared notes while we got our babies worked on.:)

Upgrade electronics So this is an after-market unit? Where from? I went to Car Toys for an upgrade, and they wouldn't touch it! I see it has radio/audio...what about the navigation system. The one that came with the XLR SUCKS IMHO.

Black beauty Niiiiiicccceeee!

Fast color Yeah, I get asked all the time, "How fast is it?" My stock answer is, "A lot faster than I'm brave enough (or crazy enough) to drive!":) I didn't buy it as a racer - that's what 'Vettes are for. I got it for enjoyable top-down cruising. And anything over about 60 is NOT enjoyable...

Heat shield Here's what I got (2 of them). I JUST had these put in and have not driven Red enough to really test it out. So I can't give you a definitive report on how well it worked - or not. As I get some input, I'll let you know. Did not remove console. Was installed under car between pipes...

2006 Little Red Here's my baby. LOVE driving this thing. I look for excuses to take it out. Even here in DFW, only see other XLRs maybe once a month.

What wheels? Please, what brand of wheels are these? Sizes? THX!

Corvette wheels I guess I'm just dense, but talked to a couple wheel mfgrs spefically about this. Both said 'No' wouldn't work. Some obscure reason I never did understand. Still want to do it. Maybe some kind of adaptor?

radiator support "The sub frame radiator support skid assembly is cracked and should be replaced. Weird looking contraption made out of aluminum. So Ordered one on eBay for $299.00. Dealer wanted $590.00 and an additional $400.00 to install. Total, $990.00. Really?" Be thankful that's all it...
