Not recommended due to insufficient reliability data.
Calling the XLR an "elegant poser," Consumer Reports called its handling "sound but not sporty.." The magazine called the car's ride "OK, but a bit unsettled."
The XLR is based on the underpinnings of the Chevrolet Corvette. The Corvette actually has more occupant space, the magazine notes, in spite of being much more of a performance car.
While the interior is "plush and inviting," the magazine said, some plastic parts seemed cheap or didn't fit well.
