this somewhat obscure Cadillac for your consideration. The Allante
is an attractive luxury convertible that offers sleek, handsome
styling, a V8, and a luxurious interior. Not many of these luxury
convertibles made their way to market, which is too bad since they
are attractive and comfortable to drive. This car is one of 2500
Allantes which were built for the 1991 Model Year. Of which, only
376 were produced in Black. The most popular colors of the Allante
were Pearl White and Red, which are much less understated than this
Black Allante. This car is a great color combination - the burgundy
interior in this Allante looks great paired with the black
exterior. The Allante added an affordable, Italian-styled
convertible built by a trusted GM Division to the market, which at
the time included the Mercedes Benz SL series, and the Jaguar XJS.
The Allante which was designed by Italian firm Pininfarina which
was known for iconic cars like the Ferrari Testarossa, Ferrari 365
Daytona, and numerous Alfa Romeos - just to name a few. The Allante
bodies were built in Turin Italy and shipped over the pond on
specially modified 747 jets for final assembly in Michigan. All
that travel time and special treatment helps explain the price of a
new Allante being almost twice the price of the Eldorado that it
shared the Cadillac dealer showrooms with. The exterior styling
featured simple lines, very similar to the competition that was on
the market at the time. The car features very interesting tail
lights, chrome trim on the bumpers and rear decklid, and the
unmistakable chrome egg-crate grille. This car offers the correct
components right down to the red stripe that adorned the lower
portion of the vehicle. Fancy styling of the leather interior,
which in this car is Burgundy, added to the positive driving
experience to be had. The interior features a driver centric
dashboard in which the dashboard itself is turned toward the
driver. Your passenger won't be changing the climate control or
radio settings when you're not looking. Interior highlights are
power windows, power mirrors, driver information center, electronic
climate control, and power seats. There is electronic assist for a
few of the steps involved with putting up or down the canvas
convertible top. The 4.5L V8 under the hood powers the front
wheels, which was a different configuration than you would expect
in a Cadillac at the time. The V8 sounds great, and produces a fair
amount of power in order to make this Caddy fun to drive. The
Allante may be a bit obscure compared with the Cadillac staples
like the Eldorado or Seville, but it's a really nice luxury
convertible that's definitely one to consider. This car is a fine
example of an early 90's Cadillac that will get a little more
attention from those who know what it is than a run-of-the-mill
Eldorado of the same era. Be sure to check out all the photos and
