Welcome to the Cadillac XLR Forums!

Who is going to bite on this one?

Did this special edition come with the letters N M on the hood?:dunno:

If you look close on the hood picture it looks like N M right above the grill in the center. If that's where they were placed?

Those are emblem letters they sell at your local parts stores. They are not factory Cadillac doesn't have that bad of taste. Looks terrible! Pricey too

I've seen a lot of add ons and mods. Some I like, some not so much. They are all good in the eyes of the beholder, so do what you want to your own car. That said, IMHO this has to be worst thing I have ever seen done to an XLR. Kind of sad to see such a thing on such a rare car. Done by someone who collects cars to sell as a hobby?? Things like No More or Never Mind come to mind.

I saw a worse one - "Caddy Vette" letters where this one has the NM, lots of vents, & it was a base but has the same stick on letters with "430 HP" on the side (oops, think you meant 440 if you were trying to be a V!). I've never seen so much lettering on anything.

Again, to each their own but it was for sale & all that's gonna make it tough I think.
 
You want to see ugly? Here are a few XLRs that that prove money can't trump taste:

I submit, "The Blue Bomb, "The Rootbeer Beast, The Fake Wood Fail, and the all-time worst execution of an XLR abomination, "The God Father XLR" which keep popping up from time to time and never seem to get sold, for some reason.

That root beer one looks like its has a body kit on it. I would need to see it at different angles,but those vents in front of the rear wheels looks pretty good. I believe the c6 has something similar. Those wheels are awesome. Just gold ain't my color. Looks good on that scheme though. i dont know why people put V badges on a base. If anything take them all off so no one knows. Bad placement too:dunno:

I see the guy with the 'Blue Bomb' must have been so embarrassed that he removed the front Cadillac badge.

Here's your winner! From Autotrader, & the seller threw in a picture of a STS interior trying to pass it off as his (I know because I use to have one):

Wow! Never would've thought that (some) XLR owners had bad taste, but I guess I was wrong. :(
 
Desecration...

That is a damn shame.... Wow. Do these people have any idea how the value of these precious vehicles plummets when you turn them into circus clown cars? That looks ridiculous. Is he a member? I'd like to ask him what he was thinking.

I'm really surprised that it still has the factory wheels! I don't know about the hood vents and painting designs, but I think the other things should be able to be made back to original XLR! Still agree! CADDY VETTE
WHY? WHY? WHY?
