Favorite Color?

What's your favorite color?

What about Ultra Violet? There will be 101 of them delivered before the end of September.

good point, but that really isn't a choice. if you wanted nieman marcus, you were stuck with purple. it's not really an option.

Interesting that when I recently picked up my Crimson Pearl, the dealer said it was the first one they had sold in that color (and they have delivered about 12 so far). Yet, it is leading the votes for favorite color.

People like Crimson, but don't order it? I wonder.

I did not order my Crimson Pearl from a dealer but when I was looking "in March" for one on dealer locator I found more XLR's in any color BUT Crimson Pearl.
But if you look on ebay today you will find MORE Crimson Pearl then any other color so who knows....
Blaise

I was thinking the same thing.
everyone always says mine is the first red they've seen,
if one at all. and it was more difficult to locate when I ordered
in Nov. I thought there we're far fewer red produced.

Also interesting is the second place Blue was discontinued??

Any way to get production figures by color???

The Xenon Blue has been the sleeper color, people were not sure about it until they saw it in person. In popularity it ranks up near the top.

The color that is discontinued was the Thunder Gray. The last day for an XLR dealer to place an order for the Thunder Gray was 4/20/04. @005 production starts on June 28th with the new color Blue Steel.

Thanks

I like the Xenon Blue . Then the Black. I haven't seen an ugly one yet in any color.

Lt. Plat would be my first color of choice and second would be Blk Raven. The car looks sharp! :smash

This is my first post to this forum and I am working towards to purchasing this "push button automobile" by 2005.


:cool

Crimson Pearl and Black both do it for me.

Has anyone seen the new for '05 "Steel Blue" color? If so, what was it like? Or, when is it expected to arrive at dealers? I think it will look good, and expect that the color will be like previous blue-gray metallics that have been offered on Mercedes Benzes in the '70s and '80s, and on '80s BMWs.

Incidentally, a few months ago, there was an '04 XLR custom painted in "Silver Green" with Neutral Shale leather interior offered on e-bay for sale. It was the "Silver Green" previously offered on the CTS models. The combination looked good, overall. The car was initially a N-M special edition car (ultra violet) but the repaint, from the photos, looked quite professionally done.

Crimson Pearl just sounds as good as it looks. :D :D

So far my favorite color is the zenon blur, blue I mean, or is it blur! My next favorite color will probably be the steel blur, I mean blue, but will have to wait and see it first. ;) :cool :) :glol

I just bought a Steel Blue. More classy than flashy. Pictures in about a week.

I am now starting wonder about the numbers that are showing up on the color chart above.
I wonder if this is showing what colors people ordered or NOW what the dealers ordered and had left in stock.
I think some people may have had to buy any color just to get one of these beautiful cars. Now that they have been out a little while and the 2005's are starting to hit the road maybe the chart will change a little faster and show a different scale or percentage.
Blaise :flag

MotorBoat, I agree with youre statement.

I figured I would tell you what I have experienced with 04 & 05 orders. Dealers that were ordering them for stock, were naturally going to order what they thought would be a safe/easy color to sell. Those colors would naturally be Crimson & Black Raven for a convertible.

That doesn't mean the people that wanted an XLR would have ordered either of those two colors. Since all my XLR's were pre sold for all of the 2004 model year and most of the 2005 model, the break down (below) is what each of my clients ordered for their XLR color choice. This should be more of an accurate picture of what color the consumer actually wanted.

Black Raven 40%
Light Platinum 35%
Xenon Blue 15%
Satin Nickel 5%
Crimson Red 5%
Thunder Gray 0%

Blue Steel is growing in popularity and will appeal to more ladies than the Xenon does.

Does any one have a photo of the steel blue? I had my dealer order a steel blue with shale. He said that he wanted to see that, color even if I don't buy it, which is pretty cool!
:cool :flag

For those of you that have wondered about the 2005 Blue Steel looks. When The carrier pulled up last week to deliver this new color, I was taken by surprise to see it in the carrier with little light on it, it cast a very unique appearance. I thought it was a shade of the Neiman Marcus Edition Ultra Violet.

Once the XLR was unloaded from the carrier I was able to see what I thought the color would be. That is about 80% medium blue with a cast of Violet/Lavender & Silver. I spent 2 days with it taking photos of it in various lights. For any 1993 Allante owners (Montana Blue) or 93-94 Cadillac owners you may remember Medium Montana Blue. It is not exact but it is very close, Blue Steel has a little more blue and less violet than Montana blue had.

I was hoping to have it longer but delivery times didnt quite work out, so I drove it to my clients home 145 miles away. You can see some photos of it that I have put up on the site.
Just click here www.cadillac-xlr.com/_wsn/page5.html (http://www.cadillac-xlr.com/_wsn/page5.html)

There is a very unique picture of all 6 of the 2005 XLR colors that were assembled at one time.

I guess we're going to need a new chart/poll incorporating the new color. Some of us still feel slighted that our Ultra Violets didn't get listed in the above "favorite color" poll. Who's to say that person who bought a black on black wouldn't prefer Ultra Violet... If you think you get looks driving around in your XLR, try it in Ultra Violet!

I saw one at the dealership the day we took delivery of ours . The color is just stunning. Its almost like a silk-on-silk Persian carpet, in that the color seems to change in accordance with the lighting conditions, and the sight line. :thumbs

I did a complete 720 walking around it before I could pinpoint the color.

Obviously the rarest XLR. I noticed that it did not make Allen's photo link of "all" the XLR colors.

Actually I now have the photo up of the Neiman's Ultra Violet with all 6 2005 colors. Sorry I accidently lost it!

Allen, thanks for posting the photos, especially of the Blue Steel color! It looks gorgeous, and now my vote would definitely be for that combination, (along with the darker wood trim). In my opinion, that would be the classiest car available today! Thanks, too, for your efforts to present a photo of all the XLR colors alongside each other and nice and clean. Actually, the group photo clearly shows the great lines of the XLR regardless of color chosen. :cheers

P.S.--Blue Steel looks like the color used in the Cadillac ads with the commuter on a train speeding along and featuring the Blue Steel XLR.

I'm looking for Fort Lauderdale oweners so we could network...

Thanks...

Sandy

LoveEldos, Thanks for the nice comment- I again dropped the ball & neglected to tell forum readers on how to view the new Dark Eucalyptus Wood Trim. A photo is available of the the Light & Dark individual pieces of wood.

You can also see the trim on the inside of an XLR.

I am soooo thriled, I just bought my beautiful Blue Steel XLR. :party from the show room floor, out the door and joy riding . I can't beleive it. :party Happy, Happy, Joy, Joy. I'm on my way Saturday from Denver to Phoenix, so I can have better use to that top that tucks away!!! :D See ya... but you won't see me, just a blue streak, that's me. :leaving

Hi Blue Steel Baby, I too have a Blue Steel. WE live just outside of Albuquerque, NM., hey, on your way to AZ, why don't you call us and you can see all 3 of our XLRs and maybe have dinner, or lunch, or breakfast, depending on what time you get here, if you like.

Enjoy your new car and welcome to XLR Forum.

:party :flag :angel :)

Many people have asked, "What is the hot color" or "What do most people order on their XLR". Please understand, with over 50% of the Cadillac dealers received only one XLR for the entire 2004 model year.

Many of the colors that were sold were very possibly not the first or even the second choice of the people that purchased them. Quite a few people were so grateful to get their hands on a roadster they grabbed what ever color they could get their hands on. Later when these owners saw a different color, many wished they had custom ordered their XLR.

Here is the complete breakdown for the exterior/interior that were for the 2004 XLR Roadster.

Eyedoc,
I just rechecked the numbers that I posted and they both add up to 100% of the 2004 production. If my math is off somewhere please tell me.

Thank you
Allen

I've seen all but the steel blue. All cars look good in black. The XLR looks good in all colors. But, I seem to like the Xenon as the sharpest looking color. But, as with the red & black, impractible...every finger print can be seen (I saw many on the black one in a showroom). So, I would opt for the platinum (on my CTS) or the Nickel, which quite frankly, looks great on the car!

The raw numbers don't seem to match the percentages (the numbers to the left of the color). Unless those are numbers that designate the color and not numbers of cars sold.

I am sorry for not explaining that, those are your car colors such as 95 is Ultra Violet. They have nothing to do with the count.

Note: I am posting this here for the simple reason that quite a few people have had the wrong idea of the coverage of the maitenance warranty. This is a large thread and the majority of members will see this. I made a new thread under Technical regarding this matter.
Allen

There seems to be a big misunderstanding about what is covered under the XLR's inclusive maintenance. The program is called "XLR Premium Care". The warranty covers Cadillac's scheduled maintenance (not the dealers recomendations).

The XLR should have a single oil & filter change every 10,000 miles or 10 month intervals. You may also have it changed under warranty when the message in the DIC (Driver Information Center) says change oil now.

If your dealer tell you that you need to change it more often, then dont be surprised if you receive a bill for it. If your dealer is not a large XLR sales point, they may not realize the warranty coverage until after you have left and they try to process a warranty claim.

Your XLR is filled with Mobil One oil, it is synthetic and does not require the old fashioned 3month/3000 mile changes. Mobil One is also quite a bit more expensive than traditional oils, and will not be happy when they realized they made a mistake.

Evey Cadillac dealer has a copy of the "XLR Premium Care" guide. As a courtesy to my clients I copy the guide on 8 1/2 x 11 card stock and give each of my owners a breakdown of the coverage.

I have the complete premium care guide posted on my site, feel free to take a look or copy it for your records. Here is the direct link for the Premium Care.

Allen,
"Mr. XLR" as alway you are nice enough point out what we may have missed in the owners manual, or were not told by our dealer.
Most of us don't read the manual till something does not work or it breaks.
With this car I think we all have to at least go thru the manual once just to get the high lites of how to make all the great features work but miss the things that we think are the same on ALL cars.
Only thing you need to change in your tip is on the oil change it 12 months not 10. I think this was just a type O on your part.

Thanks for the tips.
Blaise :thumbs :thumbs

Well, no thunder gray over here :nodno
But it`s still my favorite color :)
The first XLR I drove was in aug/2003 in Bowling Green/Ky even before the dealers had them, the color was crimson-pearl with shale. I saw the XLR`s that time in all available colors beside the (Neiman Marcus Edition)
All the colors looked good but for me the Thunder-Gray/Shale was the nicest comination :yesnod
So I got me my favorite color and all people like this comination.

BTW what you guys think about the moonstone (avail. for the SRX - CTS and STS)
I would love this color on the XLR but only with shale interior.

Thanks
Harry

Harry
What does that color look like?
Bob

Harry
What does that color look like?
Bob

Hi Bob,
here in germany we call it "anthrazite", I would say it`s the color between my thunder gray and black.
when you take your XLR out for a ride stop by a cadillac-dealership, you can see the color there on some SRX`s or the new STS.
I might buy an STS as soon the come over here and told my dealer I like to have
this color - he said NO PROBLEM :)
Bob, by the way it`s nice talking to you :D
Harry

Anthrazite: sounds like a disease :)

I thought Thunder Grey was the classiest color . . . too bad they discontinued it! Of the current colors, I like the Steel Blue best, but it seems to be the hardest to find. I bought Satin Nickel . . . had a choice between that color and the Crimson Pearl. I get enough speeding tickets as it is, and figured a red car would just compound the problem!

I do MUCH PREFER the shale interior. The darker interior is just TOO dark!

On the 2006 XLR the red is leaving the current Crimson Red, and going to Infra Red. Infra Red is brighter with much more metallic flake in the paint for light refraction. This is not a flat bright red that absorbs color, The flake that makes this happen is called Xirallic.

For those that have been waiting, The new XLR-V site just opened to coincide with the roadsters unveiling. You will find the precise specs,hundreds of photos(adding daily)and videos of the Supercharged XLR-V as well. Simply go to:

www.CadillacXLR-V.com (http://www.cadillacxlr-v.com/)

Thank You
Allen (Mr XLR)

I guess the XLR has come full circle from my Ultra Violet to the new Infra Red... :glol

or maybe full spectrum... :)

This is a re-post from a thread that was started regarding the XLR-V. Since it was color related I thought it should be here.
Thanks
Allen
New- Infra Red
Both reds are one in the same, the Infra Red is slightly clossser to the Pearl Red of the 1995-1997 than the Crimson Pearl of 1998-2005. The latter has slightly more blue in the color to darken it.

The photos of the XLR-V from the new York Auto Show bring out the brightness and reflection that the new Xirillac Flake bounces the light off the surface, when bright light is directed at it. The Studio shots of the Infra Red were under a softer light. Read about the Xirillac Flake on the Specifications page www.cadillacxlr-v.com/page3.html (http://www.cadillacxlr-v.com/page3.html)


This situation looks no different than at the 2003 Detroit Show we had pics of the Light Platinum that looked Pearl White because of the bright lights. The Crimson Red on my colors page www.cadillac-xlr.com/_wsn/page6.html (http://cadillac-xlr.com/_wsn/page6.html)
looks very Cherry red because it was taken as it rolled off the carrier on a very bright day.

I have attached the two photos of the same Infra Red that vary because of the lighting.

So Allen,

Would you say that the more true color that we will see in normal light conditions during the day time would be Cherry Red?
I much prefer the Cherry red while I have found others that like the NY auto show red. Do you have a contact person at Bowling Green that I could get in touch with and maybe stop off on my way back to Jersey this summer to see this color in the flesh?

As I told you before I will drive my first XLR V in aug. this year in the Bowling Green area. This only can happen with my contact person there :yesnod

The Infra Red will be the color for all 2006 XLR & XLR-V. Since the regular model starts production at the end of June, you will be able to see it well befor the XLR-V goes into production in January.

I have to be hard to beat. just traded my Black 04 for a Crimson 05...The Red is going to be hard to beat

You may throw rocks at your Crimson after you see the 06 ultra red., so don't be to smug, just yet.

I have to be hard to beat. just traded my Black 04 for a Crimson 05...The Red is going to be hard to beat

I agree . . . the '06 red is really delicious! I didn't care for the '05/'04 crimson red, but the '06 red is much richer and much more attractive!

Allyn

Allyn, I agree with the color being delicious, almost to the point of biting into it, but the thing I don't like is the tailights are almost the same color as the car and doesn't leave any accent points, I therefore changed my V to Platinum. Just a matter of choice.

Are the cherry blossom out yet, Oh wait, that's another 6 months. BTW, the color reminds me of cherries http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/12/12_4_42.gif (http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb001_ZNxdm414YYUS) http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/12/12_4_42.gif (http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb001_ZNxdm414YYUS) http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/12/12_4_42.gif (http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb001_ZNxdm414YYUS)

I saw a new black 2006 at Corona Del Mar last weekend. The tailights were, believe it or not, black. You could not differentiate the body from the tailights from a distance, unless the headlights were on or the driver stepped on the brakes.

Still like the 2004/5 Crimson Pearl over the 2006 Ultra red :flag

I have a '06 Star Black and the tail lights are red just like they are on any other Star Black, that guy, or lady, had to have done something to them. So Bob, when are you going to meet up with Jim? Just being nosey. :glol

My wife got a better look than I did. All I saw was a lump of black driving through the parking lot. My wide got a clear look and stated she did not like it. The tailights would be impossible to see at night when vehicle is parked and the lights are not on. She felt it diminished the "detail" and/or "contrast" between lighting lens color and body color.

"Standby" I hope this was not your vehicle or I am in real trouble.

No JP, Mine is Platinum with Foose rims. I'm the one that didn't like the new red because it too lost detail with the taillights-------to much all one color. My daughter had those snap on covers over her lights and tailights on a black car and didn't like them at all. (Smoked glass)

I saw a 2006 Infrared at my dealer today for the first time. It was parked next to an Red-E Escalade. The color difference between the two vehicles is almost indistinguishable. While both were generically "burgundy" colored vehicles, the Red-E shades ever so slightly to the blue, while Infrared is a tiny bit more magenta.

Nice color, but I still prefer the Xenon Blue.

I drive a platinum '05 XLR, and am very happy with my color choice. I could have had the crimson, but wasn't nuts about it.

Oh boy, did I ever boo boo on this one. Since my last
post to Blue Steel Baby, I have had a change in email address', my new one is JELCTS@MSN.COM. Please forgive me. Also Blue Steel Baby, I have changed the color on my XLR. Some of you already know this, but on Halloween, how totally appropriate, I got my '06 Star Black Edition, :party :party :party, but I do have to say that it is quite a change from the Blue Steel one and you know I couldn't have two the same color in our little village, now could I? :nono ;) :glol :glol :glol :nono

Is there a way???? To make a poll, just that, a poll with the results? No replies can be posted! That way, when someone votes in a poll, I, (everyone) won't have to look at the end of the thread to see if there is any replies, comments, to only see that the last actually reply was in 2006!

Just my thoughts, maybe it's dumb, I've done dumber things, (did I admit that?)

My color was not an option. I vote for Crystal Red...

2005 dark Blue is best

Crystal Red. I bought the 08 largely because of the color. However I had the Silver in my 05 and liked it almost as much: it reminded me of my 67 Corvette.

there are only 250 of us that would vote for passion red:cheers

What about white???!!! It's not even listed as a choice??!! Owners of Alpine White XLR's REVOLT!!!!!

How many Alpine Whites are there on here? Just curious. I have an Alpine White V. Also if the new owner of my Star Black #225 winds up here he/she can have my name.

OK GO VOTE NOW !!!!

Best Wishes

looking a the polls I see that one is a lonely number, but white sure looks good :cheers as you can see I still think red is the best

you voted for white? didn't you?

Hello friends.I'm cristiano from spain.What about Ultra Violet? There will be 101 of them delivered before the end of September.

Welcome to the XLR Forum. We hope that you enjoy the members and the site.

Ultra Violet-Never heard of the color. Also, production for the XLR stopped in April 2009.

So I am not sure you are talking about the same car.

Regards

Oooh, one is never STUCK with purple! I love my Liquid Amethyst.
The Black Raven is pretty sexy, though. It's the color of the first one I ever saw and fell in lust.

Platinum is a real good color too. I tried to get the XLR guys to consider a silver like the SL55 Mercedes uses. It seems to flow like quicksilver--very classy.

Regards

Cristiano the Nieman Marcus XLR Edition 2004 is Violet. Not sure about the Ultra option. I can vouch for #82 of 101 delivered as she fills the # 1 spot in my garage......and the Violet color sits the car off from all others. Beautiful color.

I never understood why they never offered White Diamond, but the Xenon Blue got my attention first, unfortunately, I ended up with Black Raven. I'll never do that again. My work parking lot has no shade and all that black gets toasty in the summer.

I'm really liking the silver platinum. :cool

My favorite is Electra Blue.
