OVERVIEW
Based on the rear-wheel-drive underpinnings of the Corvette, the XLR features a folding hardtop and sporty handling. Powered by a V8, its styling is edgy and distinctive.
Changes to the 2008 Cadillac XLR are minor. A heated steering-wheel is now standard and the Magnetic Ride Control system gets revised settings. A limited Alpine White Edition model comes with chrome grille and chrome 18-inch wheels.
