For Sale: 2004 Cadillac XLR in Mesa, Arizona

This 2004 Cadillac XLR is the first model year for one of the most interesting drop-tops around. After all, Cadillac took the Corvette's dynamics and added in their own smoothness, luxury, and premium style - the kind of car worthy of a power-folding hardtop. So it's exciting to find a well-kept and well-priced example that has averaged under 2k miles annually. So the bright Light Tarnished Silver Metallic gives a knife-edge look to the crisp styling. The black leather interior is loaded with an impressive level of luxury features. And the Northstar motor has the unmistakable swiftness of a well-maintained multi-valve V8.

The XLR was built alongside the Corvette, but the style was very different. Where the Vette wants to coax the wind over the body, the XLR wants to intimidate it out of the way. The sharp line creases in the design serve to highlight the long shape with a hint of a sporty wedge in the profile. And it looks even cooler as the roof disappears to make this look like the kind of roadster you'd get from Chip Foose. This is why we know this first-year XLR will continue to be held in esteem by the enthusiast community. This car is in touch with some of Caddy's best roots of custom cars, and at the same time, it delivers a modern level of power and refinement. So if you want a car that's fun for today and will continue to be admired for the years ahead, you can't miss this XLR. Call today!!!
