example of the two-seat luxury sports car hybrid built between Cadillac and the Italian coachbuilder Pininfarina. The body was designed and built in Italy, then shipped to Hamtramck, Michigan, where they were fitted with a Cadillac V8 and other mechanical components. When new, the cars sold for well over $50,000 and by the end of their production in 1993, less than 22,000 were produced.

POWERTRAIN

The Allante? series received an engine upgrade starting in 1989, with 23 additional cubic inches, upping the transverse V8 to 4.5-liters (273-cu.in.). This engine delivered a much-needed boost in performance with its 200 horsepower and 270 lb-ft of torque. A Turbo Hydra-Matic 440 F7 four-speed automatic transmission transferred the power to the front wheels. The owner explains that the engine is original, starts and idles fine, shifts smoothly, and runs down the road nicely. Seller also notes that it has a new battery.

EXTERIOR

The Italian designed and manufactured body features an aluminum hood and decklid, with the rest of the panels stamped of steel. The seller states that the convertible hardtop, also of aluminum, is in good shape, as is the original soft top. The owner states that only 264 models were painted Light Blue Metallic in 1989, and that the paint is still in good condition for a 33-year-old car with only a few minor scratches, chips, and blemishes. The glass is noted as being free of scratches or cracks, while the doors and windows are said to seal nicely.

INTERIOR

The two-seat interior showcases no dials or knobs but makes up for accessory controls with an abundance of buttons, which the seller notes all function. The seats and surrounds, crafted in comfortable Charcoal leather, are noted as being in ?good? condition, with no cracks or tears. The original carpet is described as ?very good and clean,? with ?no holes or worn areas.? The air conditioning was recently serviced and the factory Bose Symphony Sound system reportedly works as it should, with new speakers and amplifier.

CHASSIS

The Allanté featured independent suspension fore and aft. This model is equipped with the Speed Dependent Damping Control, which incorporated electronically controlled shocks and anti-roll bars. The seller noted that suspension was recently serviced, there are no leaks in the shocks, and the bushings are all in good shape. The original Bosch-designed four-wheel antilock disc brake system was recently serviced, including new brake fluid, and is noted to have no issues and a solid pedal. The P225/60R16 Michelin Symmetry tires were reportedly replaced three years ago, and the seller notes slight curb rash on one wheel.

DOCUMENTATION

The seller states that this vehicle will be sold on a clean New York title in his name. This 1989 Cadillac Allante? Convertible is a mid-series model of the unique Italian/American crossbred platform that was only offered from 1987 to 1993. Since it sold in 1989, this unrestored Allante? has averaged less than 2,000 miles a year, with many of those miles being logged in Florida. The owner states that ?everything works as it should,? and the car was recently serviced, including an oil change and cooling system flush.
