1992 Cadillac Allante In Excellent Condition With Great Service History on 2040-cars
North Charleston, South Carolina, United States
|
I continue to keep all types of cool cars her at my store in Charleston S.C. and about 3 times a year I get an Allante in stock. Over the years I have learned what to pay attention to on these vehicles! The abs pump, the pull down system for the both the front and rear of the top, the instrument cluster lights and fitting of doors and door panels and I'm sure I've forgotten a few items but these have always been the most common. All of those items are great and the only fault I can give the car is I think the amp for the radio is starting to go, The radio works when it wants to and clicks when the car radio has been on for awhile, The area around the amps and wiring is dry so I know it isn't a moisture issue. I will give it some attention this week and i'm pretty sure I can figure it out. Both windows operate very well, The cruise works, power locks are fine and don't buzz, A.C. is very cold and has had a recent service here in town at the dealer, tires are pretty much new, no curb rash on the wheels, heat works well, dash lights up better than any one of these I've ever had and all lights come on when you crank the car and then go off after start up is complete. Abs and anti-lock system works well, Info display reads clearly and works.
Car has had 2 owners and it has lived in Charleston since new. No rust or leaks to speak of, car has plenty of power and transmission shifts as it should. All fluids where clean before I received the car and all I did was check them. The soft pull on the trunk works correctly and all tools and spare with the wire running through it are all there..Car seems to have repainted some years back and it was a high quality job. Not sure why it was repainted as it is the original color and there is not any signs of an accident that would require a respray. The body has about 7 or eight light nicks from time that I have fine brush touched but nothing major and they weren't that noticeable to start with. Soft top is in nice shape and doesn't seem to need attention. I do have the quarter sections that go on the vehicle when the top is down. They had some nicks on them so I am having them resprayed. Seats are in superb shape and they are in no way on the dry side, they are still supple and still carry a nice leather smell. The dash has a very slight bit of warping in each corner but nothing even close to make it worth tending to. I do not have the hardtop but if the previous owner gets back to me and lets me purchase it from him you are welcome to it. He has not contacted me back and the dealership is doing what they can to help. I might get it for free so I am being patient. I wonder how many of these hardtops are sitting in garages across the country ? There are not any warning lights on once car is ready to drive and other than the items I have mentioned I feel confident that at my reserve and buy it now (both of which will be very fair for seller and buyer ) I have covered all important areas of this car. I sell quite a few special cars on E-bay and I enjoy the process so please know I am not going to waste my time incorrectly describing a car only to then receive bad feedback.

Cadillac's Euro reboot may have implications for US models, sales
Fri, 11 Apr 2014Firmly on the comeback trail in the US, Cadillac is still trying to get out of the starting blocks in Europe. At the Geneva Motor Show in March, Cadillac' senior execs revealed plans to grow the brand's presence in a luxury market dominated by the big three German marques, Audi, BMW and Mercedes-Benz.
GM President Dan Ammann says he sees "enormous" potential for Cadillac globally.
Over the past 20 years, the General Motors premium nameplate has tried and failed multiple times to break into the European market. This time around, Cadillac recognizes that progress will be modest at best, and depends on specific changes to models, some of which may impact the brand's US lineup. Planned new sales tactics in Europe may also impact the way Cadillac does business on this side of the pond.
Cadillac still planning for big things in China
Sat, 20 Apr 2013Despite some hiccups, China remains the auto industry's great hope for new vehicle sales, with significant sales gains and a huge upside. Nowhere is that hope more fervent than at General Motors, which offers eight different marques in the Asian nation. China has been GM's single biggest market the last three years running, and is unlikely to give up that title anytime soon. Yet its premiere brand, Cadillac, has remained essentially stagnant, selling just 30,000 units in China last year. That's in a segment where sales of luxury vehicles has outpaced that of the larger Chinese market. So what gives?
According to Cadillac officials Autoblog spoke with in China this week at the Shanghai Motor Show, it's been a problem of product - they haven't had the right ones. Displacement taxation issues, import tariffs and currency fluctuations have all conspired to make the brand's products less appealing than they might otherwise have been. But GM is stepping on the gas with Cadillac, and executives are eyeballing 100,000 sales by 2016 - more than triple the Wreath and Crest's current volume. And the expectations for the brand only get more ambitious from there - they're shooting for 10 percent of the luxury market by 2020. Bob Socia, President of GM China, promises that there will be a new Caddy launched in the market each year from now through 2016 and most will be built in China. Characterizing the company's efforts to revive the brand's fortunes as a "relaunch" of sorts, Cadillac also figures to gain dealers as GM expands its sales outlet footprint westward.
New products like a made-in-China XTS sedan (with a market-specific 2.0-liter four-cylinder to avoid heavy displacement taxes) will help, and Socia hinted that the ATS sport sedan could be next in line for in-country production. The SRX crossover - currently the brand's best-selling model in China - will also likely get a long look for future local production when the next-generation model is introduced. In the meantime, Cadillac unveiled the Escalade ESV Hybrid (shown above) as its latest model addition to capitalize on the market's white-hot luxury SUV segment.
Cadillac scraps three-row CUV plans
Fri, 23 May 2014Crossovers are one of the hottest automotive segments on the planet. Apparently, the idea of mixing the practicality of a station wagon with the looks of an SUV appeals to people whether they are in Cleveland or Shanghai because nearly every automaker is jumping into the market. So it was no surprise when early rumors suggested Cadillac was planning two, new CUVs to fit above and below the SRX. But things might have changed since then.
New rumblings indicate Caddy is taking a different route. Instead of two crossovers, only the compact is on the way, and the larger, three-row CUV on the Lambda platform to sit between the SRX and Escalade may be a goner. According to Ward's Auto, General Motors thinks that the other three-row, Lambda vehicles like the Buick Enclave and GMC Acadia compete too closely with the proposed Cadillac. The decision comes fairly close to the 2017 intended production date.
As far back as 2010, this Lambda-platform based CUV was considered highly likely for production. However, Cadillac Senior Vice President Bob Ferguson was somewhat cooler about it when he discussed the new crossover briefly last year. He said the model could use the Escalade name, despite its unibody chassis, but no decision had been made yet to actually produce it.
