Several of us Midwest XLR owners are headed to Mid-Ohio Race course for a combined weekend event. The World Challenge has two races over the weekend, the ALMS also has two races and Sunday has an Indy Car race as the finale. Should be another great event with our XLR/CTS friends!!:smile::smile:
You guys have better contol over your right foot, than I do. My V Coupe isn't my daily driver, but I've been driving it to work more than I thought I would. Best I have gotten on a 100 mile round trip to work is 15.8 MPG. About 70% of the drive is at freeway sppeds and the rest city drivng. I'm...
OK, don't know if the wagons and sedans are the same, but the coupe has a single (very large) muffler across the back of the car. After seeing this, I opted for a friends help at his muffler shop. Extremely easy install, biggest challenge is removing OEM muffler--about 40-50lbs it seemed like...
Barring another heat wave showing up this weekend, looks like I'll try and tackle the project. Just wish the garage was air conditioned!!:lol::lol:
I'll post later with any issues that may arise.
Being it is only an axle back install on the V Coupe, I may tackle it this weekend. As far as your wife telling you you don't need it.....
Reminds me of the last time I went to the grocery store with my wife. After wandering the aisles, for what seemed like days, I saw my favorite beer was on...
Has anyone installed a Corsa Exhaust on their V yet? Just ordered the Sport axle back system for my V Coupe, wondering if it is a DIY install. Don't have a lift yet, but can get the car up enough with jack stands.
Know what you mean by PITA... Just changed out the OEM Cold Air Intake with an AIRAID CAI unit. Not too bad to do, but not a lot of room to work with. Getting the cone filter out to clean it and re-oil it will be a challenge. Thankfully, as you state, they seem to last quite awhile before...
For anyone interseted, there is a group of XLR's, a CTS-V and Corvettes meeting up this weekend at the Gilmore Auto Museum for their opening 'Dust it Off" casual car show (Saturday, May 19th). Many of us will be coming in on Friday night and caravaning to the museum Saturday morning. We are all...
Now that you mention it, Tuna I noticed the same thing on the trip back from New Orleans with my new baby. It also seems the bugs in the south are a lot bigger and messier (is that a word:lol:) I did help that it ended up raining later, before everything got 'baked' on and washed off pretty...
Been driving it to work the last few days and it is awesome!! Have a trip planned to Gilmore Auto Museum with a group on May 18-20. Taling the XLR-V and CTS-V, should be a fun time!! Just don't know which car to let the wife drive! :lol::lol:
We have a group of 10-12 XLR, XLR-V and CTS-V Midwest owners that go to Mid-Ohio in August every year. It's great to see Cadillac back in racing and back on top!! Looking forward to this years trip!!
Would love to see Cadillac make the jump. We have been following them since they got back into racing. Unfortunately, Mid-Ohio is the closest event we get to see thme at, up close and personal. The ALMS is also there the same weekend, so we get to watch the Corvettes as well. If they made the...
Thanks, guys. Looking forward to the drive back to IL this coming weekend. Hoping to make it back in record time with no extra paperwork from the local authorities.:lol::lol:
