Some interesting data & diagrams here, at least for those of us that are not intimately acquainted with the engine. https://www.hemmings.com/stories/a-look-inside-the-supercharged-cadillac-4-4-liter-northstar-v-8-unique-to-the-2006-09-sts-v-and-xlr-v/

Congrats! You are for sure right about the '09s. They are rare and usually pricey.

Well, I'm not sure if this is a good thing or not. It certainly gives the model some exposure, but Hoovie's famous for his hoopties and this one's in that series. He shows how a previous owner duct-taped a fender! :giggle:

Thanks for the replies, guys. mickeytee, I'll be very interested to see what you get from the dealer. As regards shades of white--I've never been taken with the pearl whites. To me, it almost looks a bit beige. If I were switching, I'd want a straight-up real white.

Folks, here's something that puzzles me. I wanted to look up this white XLR in the registry, and found that the VIN shows as Black Raven. Could a previous owner have had it painted? Or is someting else at work here? The car has pretty much a blank registry record, so that's no help. Ad...

Rather a pretty example, but with some surprising equipment. Wonder if they used an agency for that suspension, or if it was a private placement? Head of display Adopted suspension 2006 cadillac xlr for sale - Austin, TX - craigslist

This one seems like a good one at a good price. Maybe a little too good? I'm a bit suspicious. Inventory | Jeff Bryan Chevrolet, LLC

Top sure seems creaky in the video! Wouldn't a little oil there help sell the car?

What is going on with this car's top? Is that vinyl on there or just paint? 2006 Cadillac XLR | eBay

It would surely be fun! Although I doubt I could afford one. But realistically, it's somewhat amazing that Cadillac still has a couple of sedans, after Ford, Buick, & Lincoln abandoned them. A swoopy two-seater would be asking too much, alas. (I really like your car's name, BTW.)

This is an uncommonly fine-looking example. Look at the steering wheel & driver's seat--I can't detect any sign of wear. Very unusual for >100,000 mi. And from a dealer and not overpriced--also unusual! Very fine 2006 Browsing a little closer--the dealer and the registry both agree that the...

I don't myself think this one gained much from the extra wood being added. I guess the previous owner liked it, though. https://cdn05.carsforsale.com/00d06faeb0ad269284420cdbd3ddb7a11c/800x600/2006-cadillac-xlr-base-2dr-convertible.jpg 2006 Responsible for a lot of forest clearance!

:ROFLMAO:

Just heard about this. What will they think of next?? Yendo | The Credit Card Powered by Your Car Wonder what kind of limit they'll allow on an XLR?

What an odd two-tone paint job! I assume that's not factory. 2006 Infrared & Gray

Sorry you are having problems, XLR-SAM. I expect all of us here have fooled with old cars enough to feel your pain! mickeytee's advice is always good, so I expect he's on the beam here. Let us know what you decide to do.

Thanks for the info, mickeytee. You always have the low-down on these cars. Cut-and-paste undoubtedly accounts for a lot of the Alpine White ads out there and also quite a few Star Black ones.

What is up with this center stack? It's the only one I've run across that's not wood and/or aluminum. It looks blacked out, and I don't think it's just the lighting. Special edition, maybe? (I hope it's not just that somebody went nuts with a rattlecan.) Black center stack? Also, this car...

I hear you loud and clear on this, penndixie. I think blue steel with shale is probably the best combination. It's also incredibly rare. I think there's only one on the market now, with high miles, and I expect you already saw it. 113,000 Miles If you discover a good source for these, let...

'09 Higher Mileage but Lower Price Do we have an opinion here, folks?
