Thinking of buying the Cadillac XLR?
We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no Cadillac XLR for sale by us right now. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. This page sets out the Cadillac XLR for buyers, in plain words.
Before you sign for the XLR
Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it.
Under the hood
Fuel use for this model year: Rating on request; heavier trucks and vans are often outside the EPA ratings.
Practical details
As a two-seat sports car, it puts the driving first and the luggage second.
Who rents the XLR
It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.
Try before you buy
Rent first, buy later: a week with the XLR answers the big questions. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. Rent the XLR for a week and see how it fits your life.
Money matters
Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
Which one to look for
Compare the years of the XLR: fuel use and trims change from one to the next. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it.
