If you have been looking for something special and unique then here it is! Your heart will skip a beat every time you see this car! I have decided to sell my non-smoker collector 1988 Cadillac Allante that is from my personal collection of collector cars. 26 years old and on Hagerty Antique Insurance for $150 a year full coverage!! The car is an excellent example of a very rare and collectible vehicle. I always wanted to put Dayton wire wheels and Vogue tires on one of these and I believe that this makes the car. (it should make the car with how much they cost!) The best of the best color combinations is the black with red piping and red leather. The Dayton wire wheels are show condition and the Vogue tires are 85%. I just had the car aligned too. The car is ready to make a long road trip and to be a daily driver if that is what you desire. The car is very user friendly!! The air conditioning is original R-12 and still nice and cold. The automatic climate control features of the climate control works perfect. The motor is all tuned up. Undercoated under the hood when new makes the motor compartment look dirty. The motor is a 4.1 liter 250 cubic inch with 170 Horse power but 235 ft. lbs. of torque. 25 mpg is a good estimate. The transmission shifts superb in every gear and is all serviced up. This Cadillac has a brand new high quality canvas convertible top and it was installed Excellent! Fits perfect and looks GREAT! The Allante has a glass rear window with defroster. The aluminum hard top has a great shine with a spotless black headliner. The hardtop cart keeps the top stored safe and out of the way. I even have a maroon cloth interior cover that attaches over the windshield and Velcro tabs hold it in place while the top is down to protect the car from sun and droppings. I have a carpet dash cover to protect the dashboard since there are NO cracks or fade on it. The floor carpet is very clean and odor free. Lloyd High end ALLANTE floor mats with the Cadillac Crest are a nice addition. The cruise control works great. The tilt wheel and telescopic steering wheel works as it should. The power windows operate as they should. The car has power locks that work great. Power seats with memory positions and even lumbar. The seats are factory Recaro seats. There are many different positions to move the seats on both sides and some selections are touchy. They work after some extra pushing of the switches as if the contacts are a bit dirty. The, "TOWER" is where all of the information is displayed. It all works properly! Even the cassette player works. The power antenna works. The power trunk close and trunk release works. The power gas door release works. The lights are all working and the timer lights work perfect. The wipers work and have intermittent that works great too. New wiper blades even though it is kept out of weather if possible. The trunk area is factory carpet done like a living room! It is clean, fresh and HUGE! It even will open up to the back of the seat compartment for additional room. The seats are comfortable and hold you in place very nice. The brake rotors, calipers and all brake hoses are new. The exhaust is factory and in great shape. The converter is present. The AC Delco battery has plenty of power. The suspension feels very nice. Tight and sporty but still has a plush Cadillac ride. The pictures were taken on 4/21/2014 and show much detail. There are many pictures but I want you to really know how nice the car is. The car runs and drives so nice!! Easy to drive, park, and to operate the top. It is not a power top but it does have power pull down that takes the effort out of the procedure. NO SURPRISES!! There are a few dings on the car in it's 26 years. It does make a few drips of oil when sitting (common). When cold the Anti Lock Brake light sometimes comes on but the brakes work fine. Some new items are a new radiator, thermostat, coolant, oil change, and transmission service. The new radiator had no coolant level sensor hold the car will notice that on the information center and tell you. I was going to mount the sensor in the coolant recovery tank but never got to it. New spark plugs, wires, cap, rotor, EGR valve, air filter, gas filter, wipers, brakes, tires, wheels, convertible top, floor mats, and more. My point is it is ready to be enjoyed by it's new owner. I have the clean Lien free title in hand ready to transfer. I have no extra fees in my auction. Some Allante Figures: Built to compete with the Mercedes SL and Jaguar XJ. $56,533 new! 21,430 made in the 7 year run. 2569 are 1988 Allante. Shipped 4,600 miles to Italy since it was designed and manufactured in Italy by Pininfarina. The car is safe in my warehouse until the new owner arrives or the shipper comes to take her home. No extra miles will be put on the car so it is EXACTLY as you see it. Uship gives good quotes on shipping so you have an idea on that part. As mentioned the car is ready for a long drive also. I'm not desperate or in need of money. I will however give you a very nice car that you will like more than your money. I'm sure what you offer will be 1/2 of my investment but I am realistic so let's make a deal. I am Mike McNamara 585-645-5009.

For the second time, the Cadillac CTS has been named Motor Trend's Car of the Year. After winning the COTY crown for 2008, the new-for-2014 CTS outdid the other two finalists for Car of the Year honors, the Mazda3 and its corporate cousin, the Chevrolet Corvette Stingray.
What's notable about the Caddy's victory, though, is how it simply brushed off its competition. Both the Mercedes-Benz E-Class and BMW 5 Series failed to make the finalist's bracket, leaving the CTS to claim victory. "It had to beat [Mercedes and BMW] on style, on performance, on comfort, and on quality. It has," Motor Trend said in its COTY recap for the CTS.
The team at Motor Trend praised the CTS chassis, calling it "fantastic," and citing weight advantage the Caddy has over the competition. There was also praise heaped on the car's engines, with the 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder getting nods of approval from the MT team. The team also raved about the VSport model and its twin-turbocharged V6, magnetic shocks and other performance accoutrements.

There's a new intermediate class of luxury performance cars emerging. Audi has been doing it for years with its S-line bridging the gap, in many cases, between the standard fare and the full-on RS performance range. BMW's getting in on it with the M Sport line slotting in below the full M models. And now Cadillac is joining the fun with its Vsport offerings.
Models like the CTS Vsport and XTS Vsport are packing a new 3.6-liter twin-turbo V6 with 410 or more horsepower (along with bigger wheels and brakes) to slot in between the standard model and any impending V variant. Well, it appears Cadillac isn't about to stop there.
Speaking with The Detroit News, Cadillac product chief Hampden Tener revealed that, based on the response to the XTS Vsport, the brand is planning more Vsport models. He did not, however, indicate which would be the next to get the slightly sportier treatment. With the full ATS-V expected to pack a version of the same engine powering the aforementioned XTS and CTS Vsport models, an ATS Vsport would have to pack a smaller engine to fit in below. That only leaves the SRX crossover, Escalade SUV and the upcoming ELR hybrid. Food for thought.

Let's say you just got a big promotion at work or the kids are moving out of the house, and you finally have some extra money. You decide to blow it all at once and treat yourself by upgrading your ride. Naturally, you look to a luxury automaker. What do you choose?
Models like the Audi A3 and Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class may be tailor-made to introduce buyers to the premium segment, but a new study finds that they don't garner the highest rates of non-luxury customer conquests. It turns out that a Volvo leads among folks moving up to a premium brand, and it isn't even one that's made anymore, at that.
A recent study by Polk and IHS Automotive looked at what models had the highest rates of buyers upgrading from a non-luxury segment. The information comes from its new vehicle registration data through April 2014. All ten top models boasted conquest rates of over 50 percent, but the Volvo C70 led the field with 68.01 percent of its customers coming from non-premium brands.
