Up for NO RESRVE is a beautiful triple black 1992 Cadillac Allante! With exceptionally low miles, this work of art shows it has been maintained thoroughly and properly cared for. The previous owner really did take pride in this masterpiece. It was pleasing to see everything is still original and so perfectly preserved, just for you!

The Allante was only manufactured from 1987 to 1983 with only 21,000 made. The Allante was Cadillac’s answer to the Jaguar XJS, and the Mercedes-Benz SL. The story about the Allante’s assembly line is true. The roadsters body was designed and manufactured in Italy (explaining the Pininfarina emblem on the front fender). The bodies were shipped on a special Boeing 747 plane to be assembled with the American made chassis and engine at Cadillac’s assembly plant in Detroit, 4,600 miles away.  The 1992 model was a great year for Cadillac. This particular model was $58,965 brand new. The digital gauge cluster was optional at an additional $495. This was the last year for the high end, popular, multi-adjustable Recaro seats.

INTERIOR: The sleek charcoal black interior is all in great shape. This car does not show stress from time or from driving. The leather was all in excellent shape. The seats are very comfortable and there is a lot of room. I noticed that all the digital gauges work as they should. The radio sounds like its high end and the power antenna still works. A car of this age usually has a broken or stripped gear causing the antenna not to work. The A/C system is honestly debatable; it was about 50 degrees when I drove the vehicle. I am positive it works. The air was blowing cold and hard but was warm when selected. I pushed every button and turned every dial and everything appeared to be in perfectly working order. There is a factory CD player and tape deck in this Cadillac! There is a very minor imperfection on the right side of the radio; there is a section of trim that is not fully adhered. I was tempted to fix it myself, but I know there are purists out there that would not appreciate it. Just a little contact adhesive would fix this as this is the only flaw on this truly unique car.

EXTERIOR: You can set your expectations high on this car and it will not let you down. The beautiful, rich finish on the car is smooth and still has a deep color. I have not seen any scratches or dents. This car was garage kept and there is not a spec of any rust. The convertible top still functions flawlessly and has no rips or tares. Also very easy to operate, there are no leaks!  All the accessories are still with the car. The seams are in great shape and the canvas does not look faded. The tires have great tread left and the original wheels have no damage. All of the lights are working as well as the signal indicators.

MOTOR/HANDLING: The anticipation was building when I was checking the car out. I could not wait to see how this roadster would drive/handle. After a well worth 25 minute drive, as I expected, I could not form any complaints. The coupe starts right up every time and the automatic transmission shifts through the gears without any hesitations. The acceleration is very responsive but also smooth when needed. A casual 0-60 mph was great, but the car feels like it wants more. The steering feels very solid, tight, and precise but smooth and straight at the same time. Higher speeds the suspension is very comforting, the car feels like it holds its form no matter what. You don’t feel like you are being thrown around when steering hard. The Allante feels very light but solid and stiff. This car will not stress when shifting its weight through the body and frame from side to side. The brake system feels advanced, like every car should be. They are very responsive but with little back pressure, the car feels balanced the whole time. The next thing you know the car is completely stopped. At high speeds there are no vibrations from the brakes, wheels, or even suspension. The exhaust sounds original and with no leaks. There are no odors, fumes, or smoke coming from the engine bay. The Engine bay looks like it’s never been cleaned, and doesn’t need to be. The oil schedule has been recorded and is still not even ready. This was a wonderful experience and a dream to drive.

This car has not been modified and its beauty is easy to see and admire. Anyone can appreciate its condition and its originality. The previous owner babied this car and drove it less than 4k miles a year, industry average is 12k-15k miles. Any high or low end car with low miles is hard to find, but in barely used condition, this Cadillac Allante is VERY rare. Black on black with a black top really suits this car well. With no repairs needed, this unique Italian sports car only needs an owner that will appreciate its rare condition, beauty and performance. If you are seriously interested, feel free to message me. I am considering real offers. Thank you for looking and happy bidding!

For Maryland residents, you can take this car home same day. It is over 20 years old so it can be tagged historic. In most cases, older cars need extensive repairs to pass inspection. But in this rare case, this car had absolutely nothing wrong with it, and it is already Maryland State Inspected for you! It can be tagged regularly if desired.

PA residents: The PA inspection sticker is good through 6/14!

2017 Cadillac CT6 Plug-In Hybrid Drivers' Notes Review | Seamlessly green

Fri, Jan 5 2018

In many ways, the Cadillac CT6 Plug-in Hybrid is the most interesting car the brand sells. Despite having a turbocharged four-cylinder hybrid powertrain, it makes the most torque of any CT6, even the twin-turbocharged V6 model. It also has a claimed electric range of 31 miles and can still manage a combined fuel economy of 26 mpg with just the gas engine. Even its origin is interesting, since its final assembly point is China. To cap things off, it's also the second most expensive CT6 in the range. To find out if the CT6 is worth that money, and has more to offer than fun facts, we spent some time behind the wheel. Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore: I achieved 34.1 miles per gallon for my roughly 14-mile roundtrip in the CT6 hybrid. This sedan is a rolling example of where luxury is heading in the near term: Existing models souped up with hybrid tech, and the green features will go along way toward keeping big sedans like this relevant. It's a smart play for Cadillac to add a product like this. Otherwise, it's a fairly standard-issue CT6, which is a solid car. The flashy head- and taillights look great. The design is angled, creased and nicely proportioned. The interior is comfortable and roomy. It's a nice car. Cadillac invested a lot in the CT6, and it shows. Rumors have long swirled that the brand will add a larger flagship, though in this climate, that's hard to envision. For now, the CT6 does the job as Cadillac's standard bearer. Associate Editor Joel Stocksdale: Of all the different CT6 variants available, the CT6 PHEV is the one I would pick for myself. Why? Because the hybrid powertrain finally delivers on the quiet, refined driving experience I want from a flagship luxury sedan. I was a bit surprised by this, too, since the gas engine under the hood is the 2.0-liter four-cylinder used elsewhere, which isn't the smoothest thing in the world. But assist from the electric motor helps keep the four-cylinder from having to wind up too much to move the big Caddy, and when the gas engine does rev hard, it's well muffled by whatever insulation is in the car. Besides aural refinement, the power delivery is oil-on-ice slick. The blending of electric and gas power is seamless. There's no waiting on the turbo to spool up, and there's no loss of power at higher rpms with the electric motor. They work in perfect harmony providing excellent low-down grunt and solid upper-end power. The transmission is super smooth, too allowing for happy wafting wherever you go.

Facelifted Cadillac ATS spied completely uncovered

Thu, 27 Feb 2014

The Cadillac ATS makes for a pretty svelte little coupe, and General Motors appears to know it, because multiple, completely undisguised prototype sedans have been spotted testing wearing what look like many of the forthcoming coupe's body parts.
Not only does it wear at least the outline of the brand's new, broader crest, it has the same front air dam with continuous chrome strip found on the coupe. The only real difference is that it has the somewhat taller side view mirrors from the sedan, rather than the narrower, longer ones from the coupe. Around back, the changes are harder to spot because the test car is outfitted with an unpainted lower bumper. However, it seems to lack the chrome strip that offsets the lower portion of the coupe from the sedan.
The ATS sedan is already a looker, but it is good to see Cadillac is taking a second pass using what it learned on the coupe. There's no word yet on when this revised sedan is going to hit the streets - let alone what changes will take place beneath the skin - but we're thinking it looks about right for 2015.

The future's electric — but the present is peak gasoline. Burn some rubber! Do donuts!

Wed, Jun 23 2021

I vividly remember the year 1993 as a teenager looking forward to getting my driver’s license, longingly staring into Pontiac dealerships at every opportunity for a chance to see the brand-new fourth-generation Firebird and Trans Am. Back then, 275 horsepower, courtesy of GMÂ’s LT1 5.7-liter V8 engine, was breathtaking. A few years later, when Ram Air induction systems freed up enough fresh air to boost power over 300 ponies, I figured we were right back where my fatherÂ’s generation left off when the seminal muscle car era ended around the year 1974. It couldn't get any better than that. I was wrong. Horsepower continued climbing, prices remained within reach of the average new-car buyer looking for cheap performance, and a whole new level of muscular magnitude continued widening eyes of automotive enthusiasts all across the United States. It was all ushered in by cheap gasoline prices. And as much as petrolheads bemoan the coming wave of electric vehicles, perhaps instead now would be a good time for critics to sit back and enjoy the current and likely final wave of internal combustion. Today, itÂ’s easier than ever to park an overpowered rear-wheel-drive super coupe or sedan in your driveway. Your nearest Chevy dealership will happily sell you a Camaro with as much as 650 horsepower. Not enough? Take a gander at the Ford showroom and youÂ’ll find a herd of Mustangs up to 760 ponies. Or if nothing but the most powerful will do, waltz on over to the truly combustion-obsessed sales team of a Dodge dealer and relish in the glory of a 797-hp Charger or 807-hp Challenger. Want some more luxury to go with your overgrown stable of horses? Try Cadillac, where you'll find a 668-horsepower CT5-V Blackwing. You could instead choose to wrap that huffin' and chuggin' V8 in an SUV. Or go really off the rails and buy a Ram TRX or Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392 and hit the dunes after a quick stop at the drag strip. Go pump some gas. Burn a little rubber. Do donuts! There is nothing but your pocketbook keeping you from buying the V8-powered car of your dreams. Yes, just about every major automaker in the world has halted development of future internal combustion engines in favor of gaining expertise in batteries and electric motors. No, that doesnÂ’t mean that gasoline is going extinct. There are going to be gas stations dotting American cities and highways for the rest of our lifetimes.
