Welcome and thanks for visiting my auction!

This is a no reserve auction

This Allante has a clean and clear title. It does run and drive, good brakes, good set of matching tires and a near new convertible top. All the glass is good along with the dashboard and door panels, carpet is in great shape, all the lights works, gauges except the radio, power antenna and A/C, but needs charging.

The body panels line up nice, but does have some surface rust on both rear quarters and a minor ding on the pass. side quarter. All the lenses are in good shape with no fading, paint looks great as well as the bumpers. has the chrome rims, but again has minor surface rust on the outside lip, no curb rash at all. I did replace the power antenna relay, this is a common problem for killing a good battery overnight. Since the radio doesn't play the antenna relay is always on. With the new battery installed there isn't any starting problems. It does come with a matching hard top.

The brakes, steering and ride is very nice. Has NO LEAKS anywhere!! Engine sounds good, but does need a tune up and minor exhaust work. The exhaust is complete, but loose somewhere. Transmission shifts great and smooth. 

A lot of new parts have been installed on this car from the previous owner and myself. I don't have any receipts showing the previous work. I do have the owners manual and purchased a used information center for the car.

Here are a few things the car still needs...
Soft top pull down latch
Radio, antenna repaired/ replaced
Drivers seat side bolster repaired along with power seat trim
Headliner has 2 small holes, which will need replacing sometime.
Exhaust, tune up

Overall this is a beautiful machine with a beautiful color scheme. Won't take much to make this "minor drivable project" a fine ride. basically everything is cosmetic, not mechanical. 

I have just over $2900.00 in this car, but I know I will never get that back. Thank you.

J.D. Power: Mini, Lexus again offer most satisfying sales experience

Thu, 29 Nov 2012

JD Power has released its annual Sales Satisfaction Index Study, and once again Mini and Lexus have taken top honors. Overall, buyers are more satisfied with the auto-buying sales experience than they were last year, with those surveyed reporting an average score of 664 points on a 1,000-point scale. That's up from 648 in 2011. Dealer satisfaction also increased by five points over last year as well.
All told, Lexus brought home an index score of 737, which was high enough to put it atop the luxury brands for the second year in a row. JD Power says Infiniti came in second in that category with a score of 728 and Cadillac rounded out the podium with it's rating of 725. Speaking of Infiniti, that brand saw the single largest jump in sales satisfaction of any brand on the survey, popping up 52 index points over 2011.
Among mass-market brands, Mini ranked highest with a score of 712, followed closely by Buick with 706 and GMC farther down the line with 683. You can check out the full press release below for more information.

Cadillac Elmiraj has production potential

Tue, 20 Aug 2013

There are many reasons to love the Cadillac Elmiraj Concept, but not the least of which is how production-ready this big coupe appears to be. Take out the overly fancy interior and a few conceptual elements of the exterior, and this looks like a coupe that could be in dealers now as the successor to the Eldorado.
On top of that, Automotive News is quoting Bob Ferguson, Cadillac senior vice president, as saying that a production version of this car is "very doable." AN adds that if the Monterey showstopper gets the green-light, this car would compete against the upcoming Mercedes-Benz S-Class Coupe and would based on Cadillac's upcoming rear-wheel-drive flagship sedan due out in 2015. The range-topping coupe would debut sometime after the sedan model. Cross your fingers.

GM recalling Cadillac ATS, XTS, Chevy Impala over faulty brake lamps

Thu, 06 Jun 2013

General Motors has issued a recall covering 1,627 sedans over faulty brake lamps. Both the 2013 Cadillac ATS and XTS are affected by this problem, as is the 2014 Chevrolet Impala.
According to an official National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report, "the brake lamps may intermittently flash without the brakes being applied and the cruise control may disengage" on these vehicles. The report does not state that the brakes themselves are faulty, but rather that "if the brake lamps flash when the vehicle is not slowing, a following driver may not adjust vehicle speed when the vehicle is in fact braking."
This marks the first recall for the 2013 Cadillac ATS, as well as the recently introduced 2014 Chevy Impala. In late 2012, over 12,000 Cadillac XTS models were recalled due to a head restraint issue.
