I came across this blue beauty tonight after work. I saw the grille, walked around back to look for the "V" badge, and nope. No dice.

Might be de-badged, though I doubt it since I believe the hood was modded as well.

Eh, this is a common mod on the early art & science Caddies. Definitely not a V.

With how good the C7 is, they really need to make a new version of the XLR and dial everything up to 11 because Cadillac.

They soooo should do it. Classier C7 with leather covered everything? Perfect.

Too bad they won't do it.

One of those cars I'd never "pick", but I'd happily drive all the live long day if one landed in my garage.

Many XLR owners upgraded the upper grilles, but I notice right away that the hood doesn't have the cowl for the supercharger. Upgrading the lower grille has been known to impact the cruise control so most don't do it.

I also noticed whoever it is didn't upgrade the wheels - XLR has 18x8, whereas, XLR-V has 19x8.5. Still looks well maintained, probably an '08.

I've always wanted a XLR-V in matte black since I was a kid, mostly because I thought it would look alot like a F-117. I'd find it super fun to drop in a LSA or LS9 and a manual tranny and convert to a fixed roof.

I really should buy a bunch of Mega Millions tickets...
