1991 Cadillac Allante

Cadillac Allante (1991)
for sale

Price: US $2,500.00

Description:

This is one of 2, 500 Allantes made in the year 1991, out of a total 21, 430 made between 1987 and 1993. Painted in a striking red finish this has a nice black interior. The window switch on the driver's door does not work. I was going to fix it but no longer have the time. (I have another switch). The car has a rebuilt title as the front bumper cover was damaged and I had to replace it. (These are not cheap). It has the factory hardtop for an early 1990. Has a nice black soft top. Please ask any questions and I will give an honest answer. Some fading of paint as shown. Car has Indy 500 graphics on the car-tribute to the 1993 Indy 500 Edition Allantes. Radio not working. Dash has typical curling. Have the original hardtop stand and cover. I have not been able to drive this the last two years due to my schedule and it is getting harder for me to get out of the car with arthritis.
This vehicle was designed by the Italian sports car designer Pininfarina, and was Cadillac's first venture into the two seat convertible sports car market.
In 1993, the price was $62, 000. Allante's engine, the new Northstar V8. I had hoped to repair this low mileage car for my wife to drive. I drove a 91 and another 93 all summer and had a blast. Now it has to go. If you've never driven in an Allante before find one to test drive-you will then want one of your own. Always gets great compliments and second looks.
Introduced in early 1992 for the 1993 model year, Allante was scaled down to just one model this year, the soft-top convertible priced at $59, 975 (not including a mandatory $1, 700 gas guzzler tax for vehicles sold in the United States). The removable 60.5 lb (27.4 kg). aluminum hardtop was now a separate option, as well as the $495 LCD digital instrument cluster in place of the standard analog instruments. Also available, chrome squeeze-cast aluminum wheels. For its final outing, Allante received the 4.6 L Northstar DOHC V8. This engine was initially rated at 290 hp (216 kW), but Cadillac upped the rating to 295 hp (220 kW) at 5600 rpm by the time the first models were sold. Torque output was 290 ft lb at 4400 rpm. A new unequal-length control arm rear suspension, shared with the Seville and Eldorado, was also introduced that year, improving handling. Also new for the small Cadillacs was Road Sensing Suspension, an active damper management system, and improved disc brakes. Other changes for the Allante included a revised variable-assist power steering rack, deeper front spoiler, and single-piece side windows, which did away with the stationary forward vent window.
A 1992 comparison test of the Northstar-powered Allante by Car and Driver placed it above the Jaguar XJS V12 convertible and the Mercedes-Benz 300SL in North America.
Thanks you for everything. Any questions, please do not hesitate to ask. Final sale.
