Cadillac XLR
Base price $76,200
Engine 320 hp, 4.6-liter V-8
Zero-to-60 5.8 seconds

Mercedes-Benz SL500
Base price $88,010
Engine 302 hp, 5.0-liter V-8
Zero-to-60 6.1 seconds

I Know you can get amg versions of the sl but dam that gets spendy .
There's a lot more to cars besides engine size, hp, and 0-60 time. Go sit in and drive both of them (if you haven't already). You should be able to find $12k (16%) or so of reason to go for the sl500 over the XLR. I like the styling of the sl much better, but that of course is personal preference.
