2009 Cadillac XLR and XLR-V
Cadillac’s XLR is an expensive, high-class roadster, but it has never been as popular as the BMWs and Benzes in the same price range. This is mostly due to the fact that Cadillac has the same image as Buick, that is, made for an older generation. Well, Cadillac blew that image out the window with its new CTS, which is a sophisticated, elegant, and sharp car. For 2009, Cadillac is hoping to change what people think of the XLR as well.
First, some background info on the XLR.
It started life as the Evoq concept, but the production car didn’t look as good. The XLR also has a V-series model, and it is the current most expensive, fastest, and most powerful car Cadillac has made. Though it isn’t as popular as the BMWs and Benzes, it is the overall best in terms of its balance of style, performance, and comfort.
For 2009 the XLR will only be offered in the priciest Platinum Trim and the high-powered V-Series. Both the XLR and the XLR-V went through a mild facelift, which was supposedly inspired by the new CTS. Both models have new front fascias with model specific grilles and redesigned foglamps. The normal XLR now has the same hood with the upraised section that was previously exclusive to the XLR-V.
