Cadillac XLR & the XLR-V were quite a big leap for GM's Cadillac division in the 2004-2009 model years. XLR's were assembled in the Corvette plant in Bowling Green, Kentucky, but had Northstar V-8 motors; XLR NA (4.6L) and XLR-V Supercharged (4.4L). Hardtop convertibles, which always peaked my interest. More of a luxury cruiser. Congrats on your recent purchase of the Cadillac XLR.
