Miles Overview
The XLR is Cadillac's two-seat hardtop convertible, a luxury roadster aimed squarely at the Mercedes SL and Lexus SC 430. It rides on a hydroformed frame with magnetic ride control, so it stays flat through corners while soaking up rough pavement. The cabin wraps you in leather and real wood, with heated seats, a Bose stereo, and a power-folding hardtop that stows in about 30 seconds. Reliability is a mixed bag, with some owners citing finicky electronics and costly repairs, so a well-documented service history matters here. The XLR is the only trim, so you get the full experience without wondering what you're missing. Its 4.6L V8 makes 320 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque, routed through a five-speed automatic to the rear wheels, and it'll hit 60 in the mid-five-second range. Magnetic Ride Control is standard here, so the suspension adapts instantly to the road, keeping the ride supple without sacrificing handling.
