1993 Cadillac Allante Convertible
Offering for consignment, the last year of production of this model Cadillac, which was available only in convertible form. A stout Northstar V8 is crammed in under the hood, and in 1993 was subjected to the gas guzzler tax, but hey, performance was king with this car.
Exterior
A nice coating of Pearl Red covers the exterior of this steel paneled car. Three inches of front fascia spoiler enhances high-speed aerodynamics while new, one-piece side window glass improved weather sealing and acoustics. A long front hood which hides the Northstar V8 shows in good condition. Door gaps are within good tolerances, and steel panels are straight and true. A headlight washer system is noted, as well as a pristine showroom condition trunk. Black molded vinyl surrounds the bottom of this car, and shows slight fading, as do the fold away rear-view mirrors. Minor curb rash is noted on some of the lowers on the bumpers. 16-inch cast aluminum wheels are seen all around. The canvas convertible top, in black, is in good condition and operates smoothly but manually and sports a glass rear window.
Interior
Black leather-trimmed bucket seats orthopedically designed to provide optimal support and comfort are seen when opening the door. The seats have power eight-way metaphoric adjustments and a new four-way power lumbar control. These buckets are showing with slight expanding of the leather on the drivers insert on the leather but remain very nice. They flank a center console equipped with a transmission shift selector that is slightly offset 20 degrees toward the driver for ease of shifting. Leather stitching as well as nicely molded contrasting plastic make up the door panels. Power window, seat adjustment, and power locks are a few of the buttons seen in the door armrest area. The dash is all electronic readouts for the gauge cluster, and a "tower" if you will, is sitting to the right of the dash and houses the climate controls, radio and CD player, and trip computer which also displays driver information. Very clean black carpeting covers the floors and these have Cadillac embroidered floor mats protecting the floors, which are also very clean. A cozy and luxurious interior environment if you will please. Step in and enjoy the ride in ultimate comfort.
Drivetrain
This car's debut also introduced the world to the Northstar V-8 engine, which now powered the Allante, replacing the V-8 formerly used. As with all other Northstar applications, the 4.6-liter V-8 was paired with the 4T80-E electronically controlled four-speed automatic transmission. The Northstar engine featured highly efficient compound-geometry valve/port designs and "quiet coil" Direct Ignition System designed to operate at high rpm levels without loss of spark synchronization. The engine's dual stream injector Fluid Induction System was another innovation. This system was isolated from under-hood heat sources and cooled the fuel during operation, which enhanced performance. A paired 4T80-E transmission features a controlled-flow, dual lubricating system that provides proper lubrication under all operating conditions. Free-wheeling clutches ensure consistent shifting quality. Turning the front tires is a 3.71 final drive.
Undercarriage
Presenting very clean and rust free, with just a bit of patina, obviously pampered and garaged, the undercarriage is aged nicely. Structurally sound and featuring a vastly upgraded road sensing suspension, speed sensitive steering and the new-generation Bosch ASRIIU traction control system. This convertible also benefits from receiving the short/long arm (SLA) rear suspension that improves steering responsiveness. Power disc brakes are all around and 4-wheel independent suspension is on.
Drive-Ability
Nicely appointed in Cadillac style, this 2-seater venture ran well and had plenty of power to send us around the test track. Mechanically sound, and plenty of conveniences and working buttons on the towner for extra luxury! Breathe it in.
A luxurious powerful toy could best describe this small but near muscle horsepower Caddy. A smooth runner, quick starter, and well maintained mechanically automobile, with a few exterior scrapes and nice interior. Drop the top and go for a winding cruise in the middle of nowhere and you will quickly be lost in your own satisfaction.
