Vehicle Detail

1993 Cadillac Allante Only 10k miles, truly beautiful original car! What makes this Allante the perfect addition to your collection? 1993 was the last production year for the Allante. By this time many suspension, braking, top, interior and engine improvements had been made. 1993 was the only year for the 295 horsepower Northstar engine in the Allante. This car has original owners manual and owners CD. 2 sets of keys including the gold set. Service Records to document original mileage. ***Sold at Barrett Jackson in 2003 with 6600 miles for $36,750, legitimizing the amazing quality of this car. I still have the window listing from the auction and listing can be referenced by VIN on Barrett Jackson website. Link http://www.barrett-jackson.com/application/onlinesubmission/lotdetails.aspx?ln=131&aid=45 Beautiful bright red exterior with immaculate tan interior and black top. This color combination also ensures future desirability. Heming’s Motor News, the bible for car collectors, also publishes "Classic Car magazine". This month they noted that the Cadillac Allante is now recognized as a genuine classic by the American Automobile Club of America. The statement includes: "The Allante is the ultimate in American exotica that can be used regularly." May 2012 Body built by pinafarina in Italy and shipped by 747 for assembly (truly unique process that helps ensure future collectibility). Italian styling and classic American luxury with the powerful Northstar motor, beautiful condition, the right color combination and only 10k miles. This is clearly the most collectable Allante on the market today. I have priced this car in line with clearly less desired but still collectible Allante's. DID I MENTION ONLY 10k ORIGINAL MILES!! There may not be a more collectable Allante in existence. Look over the detailed pictures. Please feel free to contact me to set up a time to view the car. A little about the Allante: Often referred to as The Flying Cadillac, the Allante is a special chapter in Cadillac history. While Cadillac was no stranger to building high-end luxury cars, the Allante was really their first foray into the sporty 2-seater market and GM was determined to create something very special as their flagship. While the flying nickname could be used to describe the car's performance, it actually refers to the fact that the bodies were built by Pininfarina in Turin, Italy, and flown to the US for final assembly in a specially-designed 747 jumbo jet 56 cars at a time. Just this concept along should tell you all you need to know about GM's commitment to building something very special. This 1993 Allante is an extremely clean, low mileage car in bright red color. The chiseled steel and aluminum bodywork remains handsome even 25 years after the Allante was introduced, and these cars still attract a lot of attention on the road with their muscular good looks. Build quality was always pretty good, and they don't share many parts with production Cadillacs, making them popular cars with collectors today. Cadillac really broke with tradition in the Allante's interior, going with deeply sculpted buckets in soft Italian leather and a very driver-oriented dashboard. Digital gauges were all the rage in 1993, and this Allante has a full array of instruments keeping an eye on the engine, and it was one of the earliest applications of a tachometer in a Cadillac. Of course, as the top-of-the-line Cadillac, everything was standard equipment, from automatic climate control, to power windows and locks, to a powerful entertainment system with both a cassette deck and a CD player. Overhead, there's a black canvas convertible top that stows neatly underneath an integrated hard boot that preserves the cars clean, elegant lines. The powertrain was all new for 1993. The Allante was the first car that cadillac put it's venerable Northstar motor in. The engine bay is so clean it looks new. Absolutely amazing for a car this age. It fires up eagerly with a great V8 rumble from the exhaust, and moves the roadster effortlessly. With the northstar engine the Allante can accellerate to 60 miles per hour in roughly 6 seconds.The chassis is solid and clean, there's no rust. In fact it looks nearly new underneath. With an all-independent suspension, handling is lively and this car will surprise you with its capabilities. 4-wheel disc brakes were part of the package, and feature ABS and driver airbag for safety. Wheels are distinctive Cadillac alloys in excellent condition and wearing Goodyear radials with a lot of life left and no dry rot. Despite their limited production status and exotic origins, Allantes remain reliable, fun, collectible cars with a strong following. Support for these cars is still very good, with quite a few parts suppliers offering almost anything you'd need to keep it running forever. The Cadillac-LaSalle Club welcomes them at any show, and, well, they're just nice cars to drive. This is a no-stories car with a clean ownership history that presents exceptionally well and drives like A car with only 10 thousand miles should. VIN 1G6VS3396PU127322
