93 Cadillac Allante, Diamond In The Rough, No Reserve Listing on 2040-cars
Chagrin Falls, Ohio, United States
|
What a find! A Montana Blue 1993 Allante with the Northstar. Of all the roughly 21,000 Allantes ever built, there were only 151 made in this beautiful Montana Blue. Add the optional factory navy blue top and the $2,000 optional chrome wheels that were only offered on the 1993 and you have a collector's collector car. Only 111,000 miles and you can see this beauty was only driven around 5,000 per year!
Now here is a great story. I bought this car with the thought it was either going to be a great summer/golf/beach car or a daily work car…or both…or a project make money car. Well I have been told we are buying a house, and all "fun" cash is being called into the mother ship…so off to ebay we go. This car has sat and been neglected for a good deal of time. Let's talk about what is good. This month I drove this car from St. Louis to Cleveland, Cleveland to Columbus and back, and all around town for 2,100 miles this month. Let me tell you about the St. Louis trip. At 75 MPH on I-70 with the top up and the air conditioning blowing cold, this is one great ride. Throw in a torrential monsoon outside Indianapolis, and the nearly new tires held their own, the rear defrost works flawlessly, the top is whisper quiet and bone dry. In short, great freeway warrior. Step hard on the brakes and the anti-lock is perfect and there is no vibration or pulling whatsoever. What works? Where do I start. Cruise control, automatic temperature control, power windows and seats including lumbar support both sides, top pull down motors front and back, trunk pull down, stereo (don't know about CD) dash and interior lights, wipers and washers, including headlight washers. I changed the oil before and after the St. Louis trip and no signs of any problem. No discolor, no coolant, no odor. This car does not smoke, leak or overheat. It runs a little rough because it needs a tune up. What's wrong? After 2,000 miles the check engine light just came on, and the A/C now says it needs a charge. The car is getting 18 mpg so it probably needs a tune up. Still roars though. A normal person would replace the muffler, but it actually has a very nice ruble. I think the car was left out in the sun in Florida for its first 12 years because the clear coat is burned on the hood and trunk. No dents, dings or body work. The dash is also burned, but not warped. It will need to be dyed, or you can use the pretty blue cover that comes with the car. The dam on the front bumper apparently hit a curb and needs some tlc, but the body on the car, including the paint, is spectacular. Simply no rust or damage. The color is a show stopper. People are coming up to me in shopping center lots to ask about this car. Now for the interior. As you can see, the Florida sun was not very charitable to that beautiful leather. I honestly believe the original owner was a golfer or a sailor and just left the top down 24/7. It shows on the factory top, which I don't think was ever up, and which has a few stains but no tears, no wear, nearly flawless. If I was keeping the car, I would patch the leather for $300 but if you want a true classic you'll need to replace the leather. This car even has the add-on windscreen. You actually can drive with the top down at 70 and talk on the phone, it is that quiet. Bottom line is the car is a genuine fun daily summer driver as it sits, or it is a diamond in the rough. Put $3-5000 into this car and it will be a genuine $15,000 1993 Northstar Montana Blue Allante. Me? I gotta go buy a house. Send me some money and I will send you this Allante. Check out my ratings on ebay. No reserve. High bidder buys the car. This is not my first Allante sale. (I love these cars). And I have 100% happy buyers. Questions? Give me a call. 440 897 1286 |

Recharge Wrap-up: Lyft partners with Didi Kuaidi, Cadillac uses ultracapacitors
Thu, Sep 17 2015Lyft and Chinese on-demand transportation venture Didi Kuaidi have announced a partnership. Additionally, Didi Kuaidi is investing $100 million in Lyft. The two ridesharing companies will share technology and provide interoperability between platforms. For users, this means it will be easier to get around when traveling between the US and China. "In today's rideshare environment, where every region presents a unique set of challenges and opportunities, partnering with the homegrown leader is the winning approach to Chinese expansion," says Lyft President and co-founder John Zimmer. Learn more in the video above, and in the press release below. Car2go has announced service in Miami Beach, FL. Beginning October 1, the one-way carsharing service will expand its boundaries beyond its current Miami service area to include neighboring Miami Beach. "We're thrilled to see car2go expand to Miami Beach," says Miami Beach Mayor Philip Levine. "Miami Beach residents and visitors are increasingly seeking new, environmentally conscious options to move around North, Middle, and South Beach, and carsharing is an important part of realizing that vision." Read more from Car2go. ClipperCreek has added the HCS-30 EVSE to its product line. The 24-amp, 240-volt Level 2 charging station is designed for residential and workplace duty. It allows for faster charging without the customer having to upgrade their electrical service panel. Delivering about 20 miles of range per hour of charging, the HCS-30 EVSE can charge most EVs in about four hours. Pricing begins at $565. Read more from ClipperCreek. Cadillac will use ultracapacitors in its stop-start systems for 2016. Rather than relying on battery power to run electrical systems while the engine is not running, the utracapacitors can provide a stable flow of energy without losing lifespan to repeated cycling. Supplied by Maxwell Technologies, the ultracapacitors are also lighter than batteries and, according to Cadillac, provide smoother restarts. The 2016 models to use the updated stop-start technology as standard will be the ATS and CTS, with the exception of the V performance variants. Read more at Green Car Reports.

2021 Cadillac Escalade teases us with sliver of a design preview
Thu, Jan 23 2020We know the 2021 Cadillac Escalade will be breaking cover on February 4 to join its full-size GM truck compatriots. And now we know Spike Lee will have the honors of introducing the Cadillac at the Oscars through a short film he directed called “Anthem.” Cadillac also took the opportunity to tease the new Escalade's front end with this nugget of a preview. We get to see the grille, headlight and DRL design of the 2021 Escalade, staring daggers through Spike LeeÂ’s back in a studio. The grille is a traditional Escalade look, eschewing the grille design seen on more recent Cadillac SUVs like the XT6 and XT4. It uses larger silver bars that scythe across the front end as opposed to the mesh and speckled black/chrome seen on the Cadillac crossovers. Similar to the XT6, however, it does go with a horizontal main headlight and a vertical DRL. This marks a departure from the vertically-oriented headlights weÂ’re used to seeing on the biggest Cadillac. WeÂ’ll note that the bumper-width lower grille appears to be done in black, but thereÂ’s no shortage of chrome on this EscaladeÂ’s front end. Our best look at the interior is through a grainy video Cadillac teased to us about a month ago. ItÂ’s going to have 38 inches of curved screen, using OLED technology. ThatÂ’s going to be lovely to look at. The front end teased in this photo is plenty fine, too, but weÂ’re not seeing anything thatÂ’ll upset the apple cart from an exterior design perspective yet.
