Every exceptional car should come with some history; in the case of my wife’s car, it was purchased in AUG. 2008. The Dealer, Armen Cadillac-Hummer, Plymouth Meeting, PA, mileage then 34,324 on the odometer; MILEAGE now 42,646 rust free, always dry and garage kept. It’s been a pampered weekend only vehicle, and has been driven only some 8,000 miles since our purchase; in fact, in the last 2 years it’s been driven less than 3,000 miles since our move in 2011 from the Washington DC area to Louisiana. When I wrote this AD I noticed CARFAX/CARCHEK posted a Minor Accident and lowered our rating so I pulled the AD to find out what had we missed. It turns out, a character off in the VIN of another like vehicle caused a mix up. We contacted the Police Department in which the incident was reported and they quickly resolved the issue and we applaud the Lake Mills, WI PD, specifically the Chief and Records Person for their help and great service. On the other hand, CARFAX/CARCHEK have their own process (wait in line) and we'll get around to it. As such, I posted the Lake Mills, WI PD response for your confidence in buying a accident free vehicle. All PMs have been timely, no failures or major repairs have been required. All instruments/components work and the retractable top is fully functional. The car still has ONSTAR onboard and that may be transferred at the Dealer for a fee. The car comes with all the standard XLR options such as: ABS, AIR, Leather Seats, CD, HID Projection, Back-Up Curb Sensor, Navigation, Power Seats and dozens of more items, just email me if you have any questions.Since we restored and own a 1963 and 1965 Corvette we couldn’t help but add some XLR upgrades. Not wanting to change any comfort or safety feature or make some unfamiliar modification, we stuck to Tire Wheels and Brake upgrades. Most importantly, if she had a flat while riding alone she’d have some piece of mind. To complement our safety concern (no spare onboard standard) and wanting the XLR-V stance and lower profile, we sized up the tires adding 4 Pirelli (Eufori @8) Run Flat tires, P255/40R-19 rear and P235/45-19 front. Adding to the braking Performance, we added Drilled Disc Performance Rotors that greatly improved an already great braking system and upgraded to Performance Ceramic brake pads; also, we added new Cadillac Chrome 19 inch wheels, caps and locking lug nuts. The entire tire, wheel, and brake package has less than 3,000 miles of use and just saved you over $7,500.00.The car has a couple super small rock nicks almost invisible unless you’re inches from the body, but that’s probably standard at this age; I’ll give it a 9.5 out 10 on the Paint; the pics tell the true story. The interior is exceptionally clean, smoke free, smells like new, looks new and feels new. The car rides, sounds like new and drives like it and needs nothing and can be driven anywhere. Why are we selling? Due to the lack of smooth surfaces in our area and different driving requirements; her taste have turned to the acquisition of a SUV. So, if you’re interested in this type of a vehicle, this one provides some of the XLR-V perks but not the price and will be a dependable and pristine car to own. Just turn the key and smile! The car is being sold AS-IS NO WARRANTY implied or offered. We reserve the right to end the auction early if a sale is completed. Good luck and happy bidding.
