This is a collector owned, two owner 1993 Cadillac Allante
Convertible in its original Polo Green Metallic paint and well
preserved original Black leather interior. With only 61,000 well
cared for miles from new, this Cadillac promises years of cruising
and fun. From a collectability standpoint, this convertible has it
all, a rare color combination, one year only Northstar V8, and the
desirable factory hard top. With the renowned Italian Coachbuilder
Pininfarina designing and supplying the body, and Cadillac
introducing their latest in technology, the result has become a 90s
American sport luxury icon. This Allante was bought new at Steve
Foley Cadillac in Northbrook, IL and the owner received the
Cadillac Gold Key delivery treatment. The owner then brough it to
her home in nearby Winnetka where it was driven sparingly, and
garage kept. All service and maintenance records show that Steve
Foley Cadillac was trusted to take care of all routine maintenance
for the life of the car. Due to its clean CARFAX report,
well-documented service history, and the obvious signs of care, a
collector in Arizona bought the car and had it transported down to
Phoenix in December of 2020. Coated in its original Polo Green
Metallic color (91U), this Cadillac shows well with a deep luster
and light-catching metallic flake. A few rock chips have been
treated with touch up paint around the body and the overall
appearance is terrific. The scripts and emblems appear as new. The
high level of care becomes even more apparent when looking at the
deep front lip spoiler that shows without any major scratches or
dents. The aluminum removable hard top is near flawless in form and
function. The black soft top looks fantastic and operates as
expected with the controls behind the driver seat. The one-piece
plastic boot cover hides the soft top when not in use and is free
from blemishes. The exterior lights are bright with clear lenses.
One change that was made by the current owner are the original
wheels that have been triple chromed and look stunning. Only 102 of
the 960 Polo Green Allantes had a black interior, creating a
desirable package from the start. The soft leather seats in this
Cadillac show the expected level of wear from 60,000 miles of use.
They are well cushioned, and the power adjustments work to put you
in your ideal position. The dash and door panels appear as new. The
center console is showing some signs of wear, but everything
operates as expected. This Cadillac was not equipped with the
optional digital gauge package, which means the issues that can
arise with digital instrumentation will never affect this Allante.
The center stack houses a CD and cassette player with Cadillacs
Symphony Sound package as well as the driver information center and
the electronic climate control settings. The CD and cassette
players were not tested, but the stereo does work very well.
Climate control allows for precise temperatures in the cabin as
well as an auto setting for comfort in any weather. Mechanically,
the Allante is in good running condition. The venerable Northstar
V8 made its first appearance in this model and would go on to be
the engine of choice in Cadillacs for almost 20 years. The
Northstar accelerates this Allante down the road quickly with just
a hint of the deep rumble coming from the exhaust. Given the
regular maintenance intervals throughout its ownership, this
Allante is ready to go for many more years of spirited driving. As
a halo car for the brand, the Allante was also equipped with a road
sensing suspension system that adjusts the suspension damping on
the fly, turning the Allante into a more nimble canyon carver than
previous models. This became a staple technology in high
performance automobiles across General Motors brands that is still
in use today. The Cadillac will come with Service Manuals, original
owner's manual, two brand new rear shocks (even though there are
new ones currently on it), and a fitted car cover. For details and
