Posted on the Hagerty website, this entirely entertaining video should spark a discussion here. Not certain where to start, so I provide you with the link with the intent of hearing some knowledgeable responses. (I'm one of the old geezers who has owned an XLR and never put my foot to the...

I checked today for the first time in a long time, and I can report that the prices of XLR's on Ebay are unusually high-- well above "market values." An article in the NYTimes suggested that a recent phenomena has taken hold: that folks with expendable cash are buying and paying more for...

Am considering the sale of my 2007 Infrared XLR that "sports" an aftermarket "V" mesh grill. It has 31,000 miles on it, and it is in great condition, having been driven by "mature driver"s (I am 73, prior two owners were brothers, both in their 60's). It is used seasonally, and sits out in the...

I meant to write "tire WEAR" My 2007 with 31,000 miles needs new tires... what is odd: The inside tread on three of the four tires has more wear than the other outer sections of the tire "footprint," as if I were driving the car around corners at excessive speeds or acceleration-- which is not...

According to this "authority," the value of an XLR increased by 4% this month. Happy day, James Forward to a friend View email in web browser New & Used Car Prices | Trade-in & Private Party Values Your Kelley Blue Book®Values have changed The week of: Feb 02, 2018...

Dear All, I noticed with some trepidation a recent close up picture of GM's attempt at a one way water drain on the trunk sub floor that houses the expensive and sensitive top and ride control components. ON my recently purchased 2007, there is simply a hole... no pinched tube extending...

Dear All, My 2007 XLR has run flat tires, and I'm concerned about storing the car for a seven month (winter) period up here in Maine in a heated storage facility where cars don't move. DO I run the risk of damaging the tires? Appreciate your thoughts and advice. Gratefully, James

I've made arrangements for winter storage up here in coastal Maine... unfortunately heated car storage is entirely "booked," so it will be in an unheated facility. I am seeking your advice about storing the Xlr with chemical dehumidifying chemical packages in the trunk, cabin, and engine...

I was reminded several days ago, just how messy the front end of a car can be with thousands of dead bugs smashed on the front of my sister-in-law's suv---she and her husband having escaped from the Florida hurricane. Did a bit of research, and note here that clear vinyl appliques that are pre...

I suspect that, as is the case with many automotive materials, weather proofing materials around doors, the roof, windows have an inherent service life. What is the best treatment for extending those important, yet often overlooked components? Are there treatments that extend the service life...

I received an offer a 5 month trial for an On Star subscription on my 2007 xlr....interested in knowing what a 2007 is capable of doing with an activated ON Star. Appreciate the feedback. James

As some of you know who kindly provided advice on our purchase of a '07 with 28K miles, I am wondering about scheduled preventative maintenance regime. I have paid for but haven't picked up the car, and I can't get any itemized data on the car's maintenance-- I ASSUME it's been well cared for...

Dear All, Fate has a way of playing tricks on the unsuspecting-- so, here's the story, and advice I need from you. A 2004 purchased and maintained at a suburban Mass. Cadillac dealership (Norwood Cadillac) with fewer than 30K miles for $ 26K in Raven or should I purchase (a few miles away)...
