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. We ship cars to all over the world to customers at least 3 times a month so if you need assistance please email me your zipcode and I can get you a quote.

Cadillac ATS to go racing in 2015 as CTS.V.R replacement
Thu, 21 Aug 2014Cadillac has been racking up victories with the CTS.V.R in Pirelli World Challenge racing for two model generations now, including recent GT class championships in 2012 and 2013. However, even winning racers eventually have to retire, and it looks like the CTS may be taking a bow at the end of the season. In its place, Caddy is reportedly working on a new racecar based on the ATS Coupe, and it might even get to compete internationally.
According to Racer, Pratt & Miller Engineering is leading the development and is already lapping the ATS racecar in Michigan for testing. It reportedly drops the CTS' V8 in favor of a twin-turbocharged V6 powering the rear wheels. Since this is the same team behind the hugely successful Corvette Racing program and the current CTS.V.R, the latest car appears to be in good hands.
The new model would also adhere to GT3 rules, according to Racer, and that might signal a big change for Cadillac's motorsports program. It means that the ATS could be sold to teams in the numerous series around the world that accept these vehicles. That would broaden the luxury coupe's exposure and put it up against GT3 racecars from premium brands, like Bentley, Porsche and McLaren. If it wins, the change could be a marketing bonanza for the brand.
Lansing builds its millionth Cadillac
Wed, 18 Sep 2013Cadillacs are built at plants across North America. The Escalade is assembled in Texas, the SRX in Mexico and the XTS in Ontario. But the bulk of Cadillac's lineup - or the smaller members of the family, at least - are built in Michigan. And while the upcoming ELR will be built alongside the Chevy Volt at the Detroit/Hamtramck facility (which incidentally opened with the Cadillac Eldorado back in '86), the majority of those Cadillacs built in Michigan are handled by the Lansing Grand River Assembly Plant.
In fact, Lansing Grand River just celebrated its millionth Cadillac built. The landmark millionth vehicle is a new 2014 CTS sedan in Red Obsession Tintcoat. The facility opened in 2001 and has built Cadillacs almost exclusively since then, assembling the CTS and ATS model lines, though in a couple of years it will also handle production of the Chevy Camaro.
Cadillac's new ad campaign to tell you how to get lucky
Thu, 05 Sep 2013Cadillac is set to launch a new ad campaign this fall, as it attempts to maintain the momentum established by new models like the ATS. The campaign comes from an agency called Rogue, and according to AdAge, will lean on American values. It's called, "Work Hard. Be Lucky."
The campaign is fairly self-explanatory, just from the tagline. It's meant to make a Cadillac seem more attainable to the average, aspirational buyer. It does kind of pander to that American idea that everyone's hard work gets rewarded, but as ad campaigns go, that's not a bad thing.
Somehow, it doesn't roll off the tongue quite like "The Standard of the World." As AdAge points out, Cadillac's advertising over the years has lacked a real coherent theme, although we'll admit to enjoying the most recent campaigns, particularly the around-the-world jaunts with the ATS. It's unclear if the "Work Hard. Be Lucky." theme will evolve into an actual tagline for the brand, with Caddy spokesman Dave Caldwell telling the advertising mag, "It could very easily end up being a line of copy along with other lines; we don't really know yet. It's an open question as to how dramatically it will be featured."
