One fast Caddy

Cadillac's XLR is a comfy cruiser with acceptable performance -- the XLR-V is a monster with a supercharged Northstar V8 that cranks out 443 hp and 414 lb-ft of torque. I reviewed the $100,000 Cadillac XLR-V for About Cars, and I still get a thrill out of seeing one put through its paces.
