So far this car has been a dream to own. It is incredibly responsive and handles like a jag roadster but better. I have had it on two road trips and is an absolute joy to drive as well as ride ride as a passenger. While it has a six speed "automatic transmission", my only regret is that I do wish it was a manual transmission. My wife will take it out and put it through its paces and she would not want it to be a manual transmission.One other minor thing is that it does not have a factory installed connection to plug my I-Pod into the sound system. I would recommend this car to anyone!

I think that this car is really well built. I had a really fun time driving this car. I hope that other people buy this car and have just as much as fun as I did.

I had this car for about a year. I have had absolutely no problems at all. The quality is outstanding. The power and responsiveness are awesome. A very drive-able vehicle whether in city/freeway traffic or on long weekend excursions. A great machine to drive!

I have had my XLR-V for three months. The only way to describe it is a Corvette with all the extras of a luxury Cadillac.

Almost Perfect

I have owned several head turning cars and motor cycles, but this beats them all. From old ladies to young men and kids, people have chased me through parking lots and tried to flag me down on the street, just to get a look and learn more about it. They are usually shocked to find out that it is a Cadillac. Yes, this happens to the point it that it is a problem. Aside from that, it is great fun to drive. The acceleration and handling are so very nice, yet the car is so refined. It is simply a refined "wildcar". It has an amazingly fantastic aftermarket sound (meaning the engine). The great sound system is stock.
