New for 2006 Coupes and Convertibles

What do you do when your “image car” is losing its luster? If you’re Cadillac you inject it with a healthy dose of horsepower. Rather than dress the new XLR-V in upgrades, Cadillac smartly chose to give it performance capabilities more in tune with its design. With 443 horsepower from a 4.4-liter V8 and suspension modifications to ensure the added power is put to best use, the 2006 Cadillac XLR-V commands renewed respect. You can tell the difference between the XLR-V and the standard model by looking at the mesh grille, the bulging hood, and the special multi-spoked wheels.
