Get This 2.5k-Mile 2009 Cadillac XLR-V And Stand Out From The Crowd

It’s definitely not everyday you get to own a luxury roadster that was only in production for six years and then put to rest with no successor.

While some might give that story a bit of a negative spin, keep in mind that, in 2004, the XLR was named North American Car of the Year and that this V model was priced at more than $100,000 when it first went on sale in 2006. At the time, it was one of GM’s most expensive cars.

This example, getting auctioned off through Bring a Trailer, is a 2009 model with just 2,581 miles (4,153 km) on its odo. The fact that they still sell for a lot of money as used goes to show that the XLR-V could one day become a valuable collectible.

The exterior of this car is finished in Black Raven, boasting HID headlights with washers, chrome-mesh upper and lower grilles, and quad exhaust pipes to go with 19-inch 10-spoke wheels with drilled rotors and gun metal-finish calipers. The likes of the Magnetic Ride Control system, StabiliTrak system and traction control were all standard.

Inside, there are Ebony leather seats with suede inserts, an Alcantara headliner, black olive ash and Bermuda metal accents throughout, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, plus features like keyless entry, push-button start, DVD sat-nav, heated seats, head-up display, dual zone climate control and a Bose speaker system.

As for the performance, the supercharged 4.4-liter Northstar V8 churns out 443 HP and 414 lb-ft (561 Nm) of torque and is mated to a six-speed automatic transmission. The XLR-V can hit 60 mph (100 km/h) in about four and a half seconds, which isn’t bad at all.
