My thoughts exactly? If not for the butt wear on the seats I would think vindictive X or flood. Poor Caddy - not even a geriatric in Palm Springs to love it...

I belive the XLR came with the Northstar not an LS.

Ooops, my bad. But still, basically a Corvette Chassis (I think [rear transaxle, but auto for sure]) Could do a 'Vette Kart ala Roadkill . . . . . . . Caddy Kart ? Or heck, just get it running, and drive it to the Challenge.

Aren't these just more expensive Corvettes with the electronic ride suspension?

Ewww, make sure your shots are up to date before entering that caddy. And wear gloves. And a respirator.

Were those built in Bowling Green with the Vette? No title is a joke in Illinois.

If you buy a challenge car with Crack in it, does the fmv count towards recoup?

IIRC the Northstar V8s came out of Livonia, MI. Or was that the premium V6? I can't remember. I spent lots of hours in that plant though...

I too always thought these Vette bodies had Vette engines but in this thread and confirmed via research I just learned they have a V8 Northstar.

You must be putting in the wrong VIN. 1G6YV34A945600794 2004 Cadillac XLR Carfax says Your vehicle has 50 history records.

I really like these cars. There is one living somewhere near me that I see a couple times a year. There one car that really does look better in person.
