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!

Bosch builds an infotainment system that just might not suck

Tue, Jan 30 2018

As far as we've come with in-car infotainment and interfaces over the past decade or so, we still have a long way to go — as most current systems show. Whether it's high-end brands like Mercedes-Benz with its kludgy COMAND system, which we hope will be replaced with the MBUX platform revealed at CES, or more mainstream vehicles like Hondas (with their frustrating, knobless Display Audio interface), getting the kind of content and ease of use in the car that we're used to having on other connected devices is far too complex and sometimes costly. While Apple and Google have tried to ride to the rescue with CarPlay and Android Auto, respectively, they're limited solutions. No automaker or tech supplier has been able to deliver an easy, economical, flexible and non-distracting infotainment solution. But Bosch could be closing in on this elusive goal, given the digital cockpit concept demo I recently received at CES. Displayed in a Cadillac Escalade, the concept featured five interconnected color screens: one in the instrument cluster, two in the center console, and two more in the front-seat headrest for second-row passengers. The digital cockpit concept demo had cool features such as haptic-feedback touch-screen controls that created an edge-like feeling similar to a physical button, facial recognition to confirm driver credentials, and the intelligence to know the location of a phone in the car to lock it out to keep the driver from texting. The most significant aspect of the Bosch digital cockpit concept wasn't visible — but shows the company's vision for a future of seamless, convenient, cost-effective and safe in-car infotainment. It's powered by a single electronic control unit (ECU) that can simultaneously run multiple operating systems and also separates vehicle and infotainment controls for critical safety and cybersecurity reasons. Most modern cars can have as many as 100 separate ECUs, Philip Ventimiglia, product manager for Bosch Car Multimedia North America, explained at CES, and several just for infotainment functions. "The goal is to reduce that to about 10 so that we can save cost throughout the vehicle and enable new technologies," he added. "OEMs want to put more technology into cars, but it costs money," Ventimiglia said.

Cadillac Lyriq teased ahead of debut next week

Thu, Jul 30 2020

The Cadillac Lyriq is just around the corner, set to be fully revealed on August 6. Cadillac just released a few teaser photos and videos as preparation for the big debut a week from today. It’s our best look at the production version of the car yet. Of course, you may remember photos of the EV concept released over a year ago, but the production crossover is shaping up to be a little different. This carÂ’s most intriguing element so far is the charge outlet panel integrated into the front fender. The large piece appears to lift up and slide out of the way when itÂ’s time to plug in. This reveals a decorative LED light strip that outlines the outlet, ultimately leading into the Cadillac logo above. Below the panel is a small, silver GM badge that if our guess is correct, says “Ultium” for the Ultium battery technology going into the Lyriq.  The wheels feature a unique silver and black two-tone design. Those black inserts are ridged, and the wheel is likely designed for better aero performance and increased range. ItÂ’s tough to say much about the design itself, but the silhouette is giving us crossover coupe vibes with its heavily raked rear window and sloping roofline. It appears to have a couple spoilers, one on the roof and then another as a ducktail below the rear window. CadillacÂ’s video teasers provide for the briefest of front end glimpses. Still, we can see the fancy lighting signature that Cadillac has created. ThereÂ’s both a light-up Cadillac badge and small LED lighting strips integrated throughout the grille. ItÂ’s concept car-like in appearance, so we do wonder whether this will find its way into a production Lyriq. The vertical DRL weÂ’re used to seeing on other Cadillacs has also made an appearance on the outer edges of the front bumper. ItÂ’s been previously stated that the Lyriq would enter production in 2022, so even when GM does reveal the electric Cadillac next week, itÂ’ll be a long while till we see the vehicle on the road.

GM lays off 450 at Lansing Grand River Assembly

Mon, Dec 8 2014

General Motors will lay off 450 employees at its Lansing Grand River factory, The Detroit News reports, which is 100 more than the company said it'd be letting go last month. Lansing Grand River Assembly currently builds the Cadillac ATS and CTS, both of which have suffered sluggish sales, with the smaller sedan down 20 percent through last month and the larger model down 2.3 percent, The Detroit News reports. "We are adjusting plant production capacity to better align with market demand. Beginning in January 2015, the plant will operate on a single shift," a GM statement read, before explaining that not all the laid off Grand River employees will be jobless. Of the employees that have been laid off to make room for the single work shift, around 200 will transfer to the Lansing Delta Township factory, home of the Lambda-platform crossovers, GM's statement confirmed. The News expects this one-shift arrangement to continue until at least late next year, when the Alpha-platform Chevy Camaro transitions from General Motors' Oshawa, Ontario factory to Lansing. Cadillac President Johan de Nysschen said at last month's LA Auto Show, "It may not necessarily be permanent, a time may come when we've gained momentum and we can reinstate it. But for now, the adjustment to production capacity is in alignment with our plans for 2015."
