1990 Cadillac Allante Convertible up for auction with NO RESERVE

4.5 V8, 108k original miles. With the overdrive transmission the Caddy will get over 20 mpg on the highway. This Allante is a late 1990 model, it has some improvements over the early 1990 models including convertible top release motors on top of the windshield and increased horsepower.
 
Mechanically:  The digital dash works properly but one side is a little dim at night. The engine has had a recent replacement of three fuel injectors but probably needs another injector or two changed (running fine, but doesn't have the power it should). The power seats and stereo don't work. I've never even checked the fuses. I bought it last Fall, had the injectors changed, drove it 2-3 times, then she sat all winter. It ran great when I parked it last November, lots of power. The a/c doesn't blow cold (the dash display shows "Low Refrigerant"), the compressor does have a belt on it, the tires are old and should be replaced. The windows work properly, all the top mechanisms work properly including the power latches above the windshield. The power pulldown motor for the back window works, but got misaligned the last time I lowered and raised the top. The motor does not grab the "hook" so there's a small gap below the rear window when the top is up. It looks like a fairly easy adjustment, I just don't have the time. The engine turns over easily, the fuel injection allowing a simple turn of the key to start the car.

Cosmetically the Allante shows very well, the original paint still in great condition, nice metallic pearl finish. The bumpers and grill are in good shape, no dents or scratches. The dash has some sun warping (no cracks), it has a suede Dashmat cover that matches the interior. The console, carpet, door panels and rear panels are nice, no cracks or damage, the bottom center sections of the seats have been recovered with new leather, (the previous owner did it, looks OK in the pix but you may want to have it redone). Small crack in the bottom left of the windshield, about four inches, it's always passed inspection (the NY sticker covers the crack). Includes original owner's manual and huge shop manual for 1990 model year.

Cruises nicely on the highway, holds the road perfectly. Engine starts easily, doesn't leak anything, garage floor always dry when I pull her out.  Drives overall like a Cadillac Roadster should, the suspension is sporty.  The underside is solid as the Allante has always been a Garage Queen. I love the car; I was going to get it perfect but finances are what they are and I need to sell. I reserve the right to end the auction early as the Caddy is for sale locally and I'm open to reasonable buy it now offers as well.

Modern classic Caddy convertible that will only appreciate in value. Any questions feel free to email or call 914-224-3230

Former Cadillac boss Butler takes Ford tech job

Tue, 07 Jan 2014

When Don Butler made the surprising decision to leave his post as Cadillac's VP of global strategic development, it was a surprise. Citing a desire to "recalibrate, reassess my priorities" in that August announcement, it wasn't entirely clear where Butler - a virtual General Motors lifer after spending nearly 30 years with the company - would end up. Turns out he took a trip to Dearborn.
Butler has taken a position in the newly created position of Executive Director of Connected Vehicles and Services at Ford, where he'll be responsible for the Blue Oval's global connectivity strategy. "Not only does Don understand the connected car landscape, but probably just as important, he understands customer expectations," said Raj Nair, who, as Group Vice President of Global Product Development, is Butler's new boss. "Having a leader with technology experience both inside and outside the industry is a rare combination - we're excited to have Don join our team."
As Ford has received its fair share of flak for the sometimes recalcitrant MyFord Touch infotainment system and its Sync voice-controls, it appears that Butler has his work cut out for him.

GM moving international sales HQ to Singapore from Shanghai

Wed, 13 Nov 2013

General Motors has announced that it will be moving its international headquarters from Shanghai to Singapore, a move that will see 120 employees working from the city-state by the time business opens in 2014. Meanwhile, 250 to 300 of the employees at the Shanghai office will remain in China, according to a report from The Wall Street Journal.
The shuffle is part of a bigger reorganization that will see GM isolate its operations in the People's Republic from its broader international efforts. This sort of divide-and-conquer strategy will allow GM to still react to emerging markets while, according to the WSJ, providing a dedicated management team for the Chinese market. The team in Singapore will be responsible for operations in Africa, southeast Asia, Australia, India, South Korea and the Middle East, on top of managing Chevrolet and Cadillac in Europe, according to a statement from GM.
The shift to Singapore "will help us to create a renewed identity for CIO (Consolidated International Operations) and lead GM's umbrella strategy for the region," said GM Executive Vice President of CIO, Stefan Jacoby.
