Alot of excitement on the board.arty

But I want to know why the XLR?:confused why why

 

[Quixotic]

It handles great, looks incredible, rides better than my SL 500, has electronic gizmos like a Boeing 777 (well almost), turns heads, makes us the envy of just about everybody and is very comfortable. Do I need to continue?

Gizmos

So what's the best gizmo?:cool

 

[Quixotic]

I'm rather partial to the HUD, but this is also the first car we've had with navigation, and that's pretty cool. Then again, although it's not my first car with air-conditioned and heated seats, that's pretty cool too. The keyless entry is also cool.

I guess I just like the car.

 

[paulr44]

Now that I finally have my car, the only "problem" I'm haveing is keeping the car under 554 for the break in period. It's like the car keeps saying "step on it dammit"

:rolleyes

 

[Quixotic]

I don't remember reading anything about a break in period in the manual. I thought the break in period is something that went the way of leaded gas...

 

[paulr44]

In the manual they recommend keeping the speed varied and under 55 for the first 500 miles. Of course, don't make "jack rabbit" starts. In addition, for the first 200 miles, don't "slam" the brakes.

 

[Quixotic]

Well I almost did all that... I have to admit, I got it a bit over the speed limit a couple of times...

 

[paulr44]

SO HAVE I

CAR JUST WANTS TO "RUN."

BTW, DO YOU RECALL WHERE THE INFO WAS ON THE PERSON THAT WAS WORKING ON COMING UP WITH A WOOD TRIM KIT FOR THE XLR?

:confused

 

[Quixotic]

Some time ago I was asking if anyone knew of one but I haven't heard of one yet. I'm hoping for some extra wood trim and a wind screen.

Last I looked, even the Cadillac site had no XLR accessories or merchandise. Nor was there anything of significance doing various Google searches.
