The Cadillac XLR was a luxury roadster produced by General Motors from 2004 to 2009. This two-door, two-seater convertible was the flagship model for the Cadillac brand, aiming to recapture the excitement and prestige of the iconic 1950s Eldorado. The XLR was built on the GM Zeta platform, sharing its underpinnings with the Chevrolet Corvette, and was powered by a 4.6-liter Northstar V8 engine, producing 320 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque. It boasted a sophisticated suspension system with independent MacPherson struts in the front and a multilink setup in the rear, providing a balance of sporty handling and comfortable ride quality. The XLR was equipped with a six-speed automatic transmission, standard with a driver-selectable manual mode. It also featured powerful brakes, with standard anti-lock brakes, electronic brakeforce distribution, and traction control.

The design of the Cadillac XLR aimed to encapsulate a modern interpretation of Cadillac's classic styling cues. The long hood, sloping windshield, and pronounced rear haunches evoked a sense of athleticism and power. The front fascia featured Cadillac's signature vertical grille flanked by sleek headlights, while the interior offered luxurious appointments with premium leather upholstery, wood trim, and a Bose sound system. While the XLR didn't achieve the same level of sales success as its Chevrolet Corvette sibling, it was a significant step forward for Cadillac, showcasing the brand's commitment to producing high-performance, luxurious vehicles. The Cadillac XLR offered a unique blend of style, performance, and comfort, making it a compelling choice for discerning drivers seeking a sophisticated roadster experience.
