ah shoot...

but XLR-V is so plain looking for a $100k car


i think maybe Aston Martin V8 Vantage is a better buy although may not be in the exact category and exact price but thats where i would rather put my $100k (if i had that much to spare on a car)

I agree, I'd much rather have the V8 Vantage... let's see how much the new 4.6L variant costs, though, and how much more it weighs too...

It is! Great place...

Oh, now you are making me wish I was there now! I know it very well. The best sunset ever! A pint of Bass or Guinness and some of their BBQ Bacon wrapped Shrimp…MMMMMM!! They are the best! For a laugh make sure you ask for a window seat if you don’t get one so they will pull over the “window” on wheels and put it next to your table!

Aston Martin>SL>XLR No doubt about it. The best compliment I can give it is that it is not bad looking for a Cadillac.

Yes it looks plain in that pic, and yes, Cadillac needs to improve things and the interior in the next gen., but that red one with dark tint I saw, I just thought it looked great.
