1990 Cadillac Allante Convertible up for auction with NO RESERVE 4.5 V8, 108k original miles. With the overdrive transmission the Caddy will get over 20 mpg on the highway. This Allante is a late 1990 model, it has some improvements over the early 1990 models including convertible top release motors on top of the windshield and increased horsepower. Mechanically: the Caddy has had a recent fuel injection service (cleaning and replacement of three injectors) and a tuneup, has a nice throttle response with impressive acceleration. The digital dash works properly but one side is a little dim at night. Things that need attention: the power seats don't work, the exhaust is a bit loud in the back by the muffler, the a/c doesn't blow cold (the dash display shows "Low Refrigerant"), the compressor does have a belt on it, the tires are old and should be replaced. The windows work properly, all the top mechanisms work properly including the power latches above the windshield and the power pulldown of the back window. The engine turns over easily, the fuel injection allowing a simple turn of the key to start the car. Cosmetically the Allante shows very well, the original paint still in great condition, nice metallic pearl finish. The bumpers and grill are in good shape, no dents or scratches. The dash has some sun warping (no cracks), it has a suede Dashmat cover that matches the interior. The console, carpet, door panels and rear panels are nice, no cracks or damage, the bottom center sections of the seats have been recovered with new leather or vinyl (the previous owner did it, looks OK in the pix but you may want to have it redone). Modern CD/MP3/Ipod compatible stereo mounted in glove box with new speakers in the doors, sounds great when top down cruising. Glove box closes to hide stereo when not in use. Small crack in the bottom left of the windshield, about four inches, it's always passed inspection (the NY sticker covers the crack). Includes original owner's manual and huge shop manual for 1990 model year. I'm selling the Allante due to financial constraints, no budget for toys right now. You can check my feedback- I'm a car nut with a particular fondness for Caddies and buyers have been pretty happy with the cars I've sold. Cruises nicely on the highway, holds the road perfectly. Engine starts easily, doesn't leak anything, garage floor always dry when I pull her out. Runs very strong, tracks straight as an arrow and is a pleasure on the highway. She idles well, shifts smoothly, stops easily and the suspension is sporty. Drives overall like a Cadillac Roadster should. She's roadworthy, all directional/brake/turn signal/headlights work as well as the horn and wipers. The underside is solid as the Allante has always been a Garage Queen. I love driving the car but finances are what they are and I need to sell. I reserve the right to end the auction early as the Caddy is for sale locally and I'm open to reasonable buy it now offers as well. Modern classic Caddy convertible that will only appreciate in value. Any questions feel free to email or call 914-224-3230
