Looks like the '09 Cadillac XLR will be getting a bit more of the revised "Art & Science" grille -- plus the cute li'l chrome vents from the sides of the new CTS:

Re: Spy Photos: 2009 Cadillac XLR Roadster
I'm glad they're not just dropping it.
It would be nice if they update the styling of the interior as well...something in line with the new CTS interior design would be nice.

Re: Spy Photos: 2009 Cadillac XLR Roadster
So what kind of engine is being stuffed into the XLR??
3 years to give it a final hurrah before it goes into the junkyard in the sky... ![]()

Re: Spy Photos: 2009 Cadillac XLR Roadster
One of these days, I hope to buy a used XLR. I have always admired its looks, and when I can see my way clear to have a weekend "fun" car, I'm going on the hunt.

Re: Spy Photos: 2009 Cadillac XLR Roadster
That's my plan too. Way too expensive now though. Where's those famous GM plummeting resale values when you need them?

2009 Cadillac XLR spy shots
It's nice to see these first spy photos of the 2009 Cadillac XLR mere minutes after we just dropped the hot load of Fierenzo. Essentially the Cadillac XLR is a re-skinned Corvette. A drop-dead gorgeous skin, but still a re-skin. So what have we got on the new hotness with two doors from Caddy? Not much unfortunately. Thanks to the Chicago Tribune, we know the 2009 Cadillac XLR will go public in July.

Re: 2009 Cadillac XLR spy shots
Great! I can't wait to see what they do to the interior.

Re: 2009 Cadillac XLR spy shots
Wonder what the engine's going to be. Is it going to be the swan song for the supercharged Northstar, or is it going to going to get the CTS-V's LSA?

Re: Spy Photos: 2009 Cadillac XLR Roadster
I hope they give it a CTS like interior and more engine options
