If you love the feel of the wind in your hair, but only once in a while, the 2009 Cadillac XLR’s retractable hardtop should suit you just fine. Edgy styling stands out from the crowd, a bonus for those who like to be noticed.
If you need room for more than two, you’re better off shopping the Mercedes-Benz CLK. Luggage room is greatly reduced with the top down, and the XLR’s interior is somewhat reserved, lacking the polish found in Jaguar and Mercedes-Benz cars.
