Vehicle Description
Here's one seriously rare opportunity! This 2007 Cadillac XLR-V is
a sharp looking, open air rocket. Armed with an ultra-potent,
supercharged V8, it offers performance few other cars can match and
has logged an unusually low 7800 miles in its lifetime - well under
a year's worth of driving, by nearly any standard. It's been well
treated during that time, so it's in outstanding shape in all
respects - inside, outside and beneath the hood.
This elegantly shaped Cadillac's silver paint is understated and
opulent at the same time and is really looking sharp in this
setting. During the course of everyday driving you're almost
certain to pick up a chip or ding here and there, yet there are no
such blemishes in sight - not even on the front bumper - and it's
got an excellent, deep shine you can spot while it's still a ways
away. While this is by no means the only retractable hard top on
the road, there have been very few others that have incorporated
the feature as seamlessly - the XLR-V retains its magnetic appeal
with the roof raised or lowered. All the signs that this Cadillac
has received consistent shelter from the elements are in plain view
- in addition to its paint still presenting impressively well, the
headlights illuminate the road ahead through crystal clear lenses
and the front windshield still looks as it did when the car left
the showroom. From every angle, its body panels line up precisely
and the retractable hardtop fits like a glove in its raised
position.
The cashmere colored leather interior has a fresh, plush appearance
that reflects the light usage it's seen, with a pair of power
heated bucket seats that show no wrinkling or discoloration and are
exceptionally comfortable. Regardless of where you look, you'll be
hard pressed to find any signs of wear inside the cockpit - this is
an exceptionally clean interior just as it is, and a brief session
with a detailer will elevate it back to showroom condition. This
XLR-V features a heads up display - no doubt one of GM's most
inspired advances - that projects vital motoring functions
unobtrusively onto the lower windshield for easy view. Additional
comfort and convenience features include a navigation system,
driver and passenger airbags, an AM/FM/Cassette stereo that teams
with a multi-CD changer mounted in the trunk, as well as air
conditioning that blows strong and cold.
While the Cadillac nameplate is about as thoroughly American as
they come, its powerplant boasts a power to displacement ratio we
normally associate with European brands. The fuel injected 4.4
liter supercharged V8 offers a Ferrari-esque 443 horsepower and
teams with a 6 speed 6L80 transmission that's geared to extract
every ounce of its output. The entire drivetrain remains in stock
configuration, with no aftermarket components added on - with this
kind of power already built in, there's really no need - and having
logged so few miles, is in top form, offering just the exhilarating
performance you'd expect, given these specs. A set of 4 wheel ABS
power disc brakes brings things to a stop in a hurry when needed
and smooth, precise power steering combines with the XLR's low
profile to make it a corner-carver extraordinaire as it prowls the
roads on its set of 19" stock Cadillac wheels wrapped with Pirelli
P-Zero tires. Below, the undercarriage is as clean as you could
want - this performance machine obviously hasn't been navigated
through hostile terrain during its lifetime.
There weren't many of these Caddys made in the first place and the
unusually low mileage and fresh condition of this 2007 Cadillac
XLR-V makes it a standout. Call today!
