The title is Modern Misfits 2004-2009 Cadillac XLR Driven to Success. Mark (mpv96vette) saw the article today and told me about it. We are going to copy it and put it with the paperwork for car shows. I was very surprised to see this car in a new (2014) issue of AutoWeek. Very cool to have our...
Don't know when I will be able to drive XLR again
This winter has been terrible. Was really thrilled to drive both XLR's last weekend but now we are in another Winter Weather Advisory with .5" ice and 4-8" snow tonight predicted. We are in central KY and none of this is good since anything over...
Wanted to get the XLR out on Tuesday or Wednesday but couldn't because I worked too late Was able to get it out today for a short drive and it was great. The 05 is still in the garage waiting to have to wind restrictor installed. Hope to get the 09 out again tomorrow since weather still supposed...
We have had so much snow and ice I haven't been able to drive the XLR's since November. Both have been on the trickle chargers for the winter but tomorrow the weather looks good and rain today washing away the salt. If everything drys I will try to get one of the XLR's out tomorrow for a spin...
Hope everyone is having a great holiday season. Mark had foot surgery last week so we are laid up. He can't put any weight on that foot for 8 weeks. It isn't going to be much fun and hasn't been for the past week. He is sleeping on the couch in the basement and using a knee walker but I got him...
Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
Just wanted to wish everyone on the forum a Happy Thanksgiving. Probably won't be driving the XLR's much for the next couple of months but will when I can. Still have to get the Wind Restrictor installed, Mark has been very busy so it hasn't happened yet. We had a...
Watched the DVD tonight, wonderful pics and memories. Wish we could have stayed longer but had to get back to my geriatric cats and mother. Can't wait to see everyone again. Bruce and Kathy, you did a wonderful job on the DVD. Thanks so much! Pictures are awesome.

I agree with Mark. Surely there are other dealerships in Northern KY/Cincinnati and I wouldn't take the car back there. We are going to take ours to a Chevrolet dealer in Winchester instead of the Cadillac dealer in Lex because Mark knows the service manager there. I also wouldn't have...
Bruce,
Sent you our mailing address but curious if the DVD has the actual pictures attached or just a slideshow? The program I use for slideshows (ProShow Gold/Producer) will let you do it either way.
Is your car still under some sort of warranty? If so they are just trying to get out of covering it. If not I don't have a clue because you will be paying for everything anyway. I don't think I will give the dealer any info except it doesn't work when I have an issue.
Thanks Giz, not ready to spend that much yet for a part since both are still under warranty but appreciate the thought. Don't really want to use Cadillac service because they don't seem to take care of the car, grease everywhere. Do you take your car to the dealer for service? We are trying to...
Wasn't happy with my episode either but I am glad it happened the day I purchased the car. Now I am going to try to be prepared for an incident. BTW I went to the garage to get into the car last weekend and doors wouldn't open. I finally got into it with the 2nd FOB but it wouldn't start with...
This is a link to the Corvette forum where my husband has been discussing NCM insurance, http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c5-general/3348778-agreed-upon-insurance-val . Interesting that an agent responded and it looks to me like it is not covered in any parking lot and if you want to drive it...
Mark has been looking at NCM for his Corvette and my XLR's but is concerned because it is underwritten by American Modern and haven't read great stuff about them. Price is one thing but if I have a claim I want to know they will give good service. Has anyone had any experience with that?
