A high-quality sports car that offers power, comfort and a convertible hard-top to boot.
DETAILED EDITORS' RATINGS
Dynamics
Capable handling with plenty of power but it seems most comfortable at cruising speeds.
Comfort
The ride and interior features are more comfort-oriented than much of the competition.
Function
The XLR features a power-retractable hard-top. Instrumentation is complete but some of the controls rely too heavily on buttons, especially the navigation system.
Design/Build Quality
Not everyone likes the sharp-edged exterior design and the interior isn't as aggressive. Materials and fit & finish are high grade.
High Performer A powerful hard-top convertible that is steady and comfortable at cruising speeds.
Comfortable The XLR offers more comfort features than much of the competition.
Luxurious Cadillac quality is evident throughout the vehicle.
