Pros: What do you like about 2007 Cadillac XLR?
Styling, power, uniqueness. Always get a lot of questions when I am driving around and people(especially guys) are intrigued by the mechanics of the retractable roof.

This is my 4th Cadillac & my favorite. Only 2 others in this area, both older than mine.

But really BEST thing about my XLR - my older brothers are green with envy when their little sister pulls up in her "Black Raven"!!!

Cons: How would you improve 2007 Cadillac XLR?
Better dealer education. Very few mechanics are trained to work on this type of luxury car. Past 2 detail jobs have been horrible, not worth the $300 cost.

Original dealer where I bought new sold when original owner for 50 years retired. New dealer carries mainly lower price cars and haven't quite figured out that to sell more Cadillacs, you must treat Cadillac customers like a Cadillac, not a Ford.

2007 Cadillac XLR Review:
WOW!! Bought new, traded my CTS, and took the "Black Raven" home. Felt like a teenager, and spoiled. Definitely a head-turner!! Although black is harder to keep spic -n-Span, it is best color for this style of car.

My nephews would've signed over their souls to borrow for prom night; instead I took pictures of each w/their date sitting in car. They LOVE their Auntie!

The head turning looks and it is rare to see another one on the road.

Teach the dealers how to fix/work on them without having to go back ten times!

2007 Cadillac XLR Review:
A wonderful car that I look forward everyday to driving. It would be perfect if Cadillac had worked on the build quality just a little more....this IS after all an $85,000 dollar car and as such, we who can afford this type of car want things as close to perfect as possible!!!
