2006 Cadillac XLR-V Preview

Bob Lutz, vice chairman of GM, Donald Trump of the Apprentice and the 2006 Cadillac XLR-V.

There is something to be said for going really fast in a two-seat luxury roadster. But there's also something more to be said for going really fast in a performance sedan, or a coupe. Fact it, while power is important - image is everything for cars like the XLR-V - an image better crafted cruising with a twenty something model riding shotgun. And while the XLR-V brings a certain windburn glow to the V-Series of cars, our prediction is that this special edition will not be nearly as special as the upcoming STS-V or the popular CTS-V.
