Cadillac XLR: 2004-'09
Star News Services August 12, 2010 2:04 AM
HISTORY: Cadillac's premium sports car was built at the same Bowling Green, Ky., plant as the Chevrolet Corvette and shared its basic platform. However, a power-operated folding metal hardtop was employed instead of the 'Vette roadster's soft top. The XLR also came with Cadillac's 320-horsepower 4.6-litre Northstar-branded V8 along with a five-speed automatic transmission (upgraded to a six-speed for 2007). For the 2006 model year, Cadillac added the high-performance XLR-V to the lineup that featured a 443-horsepower 4.4-litre supercharged version of the Northstar harnessed to a six-speed automatic transmission. The XLR program was cancelled following the 2009 model year.
