2-month old 7-year guarantee AC/Delco Battery.
I have the old dull looking wheels if the buyer wants them. I replaced them with the chrome wheels with gold emblems.
The previous owner put premium Michelin tires on it when I bought it. I drove the car 200 miles home, then put the Vogue tires on. So, if'n you would like the near new tires I took off you can have them.
I am giving two additional new Vogue tires with the car that match the Vogues on the car. These have the 1-1/4" whitewall which are just about impossible to find now without being almost used up.
These have the Vogue YELLOW rings on them. Vogue says "Gold" but they are really "Yellow". Gold sounds classier than yellow. If anyone is into Vogue tires and wants to know how to keep the Yellow like new, email me.
New top in box. I don't need a new top but I bought it at an auto swap meet for next to nothing, bought it for just in case. But just-in-case never happened, so it's still in the original carton.
The CD does not work, but there is a new 10-disc CD changer in the trunk. Recently installed trunk pull down motor and antenae motor.
Dash pad and Windblocker included. 1/4" chrome trim accents the major horizontal lines.
The hardtop is being sold seperately, I'll give the buyer an offer they cannot refuse. I had it sold but came the shipping problem.
The A/C has just been converted to the new R134 system and charged. THAT ain't cheap. Most Allantes still have the old impossible to charge R12 system.
Has the Boze premium Symphony sound system. But lets face it, if it were possible to put the whole symphony in the car, being a convertible, it wouldn't sound any better than the cheapest Walmart radio. Unless your a kid and want to put the top down, turn the power up and entertain (P-Off) the neighborhood.
Chrome covered lower rocker panels. You won't see another Allante with this feature.
The console (see pic) was stepped on and pushed in by my dog. Nothing, except 2 clips were broken. They look like a 10-cent item, but knowing Cadillac they probable want fifty bucks each.
The left side taillight lense is cracked. I replaced it 2 years ago but now it is broken again. Seems like these lenses are a target. THIS crack is an acceptable crack.
Since January I have had to park outside. So it comes with an almost new full cover plus another still in the carton. What you see is my Quickie cover (2 vinyl table cloth covers put together) for no-rain nights.
I have another CD player but didn't put it in. I decided to put in the 10-disc CD changer instead. So comes with CD changer, not installed. It is still in the box so I don't know if it works, I assume it does.

Cadillac to bolster CT sedans with XT crossovers
Wed, 01 Oct 2014Cadillac is moving swiftly to change up its naming scheme. Barely over a week ago we received our first indication that it was considering a different name its the upcoming flagship sedan previously known as LTS. Then Cadillac not only revealed the model would be called CT6, but announced that it would set the stage with a massive overhaul of its model nomenclature. And now we have another piece of the puzzle.
According to Forbes, Cadillac will not only rename its sedans with the letters CT, but will realign its utility vehicles under the banner of XT - both to be followed by a number indicating its place in the lineup. The one exception will be the Escalade, whose nameplate has such a strong following that it would be foolish for Cadillac to cast it aside. That leaves only the SRX (pictured above), but makes room for a new crop of crossovers said to be in the works.
It's a similar approach which Cadillac's new boss Johan de Nysschen took in revising the naming scheme at Infiniti. While it's bound to ruffle some feathers and scratch some heads in the beginning - especially since the company's current flagship sedan is called XTS - it's equally sure to make sense of it all in the long run. All we need to know now is what Nysschen and his marketing chief Uwe Ellinghaus plan to call the coupes.
Dodge Dart falls short of Consumer Reports Recommended, Caddy XTS and Lincoln MKS, too
Thu, 22 Nov 2012The Dodge Dart, Cadillac XTS and Lincoln MKS all failed to earn a "Recommended" rating from Consumer Reports. When it came to the compact Dart, the organization's testers thought the vehicle offered a quiet cabin, solid-feeling chassis and nimble suspension, but the new model ultimately fell short of the coveted rating due to powertrain issues. The institute's reviewers found the base 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine to be underpowered and noted "drivability issues" when the available turbocharged 1.4-liter four was paired with the optional dual-clutch transmission (some of our editors disliked it paired with the six-speed manual). CR also dinged the latter powerplant for sounding "raspy." For what it's worth, we think the forced-induction engine offers an excellent and playful exhaust note, but that's just us.
As for the XTS, CR lauded the car for its luxurious cabin, but the vehicle's experience was dulled by its finicky CUE infotainment interface. Overall, the big Cadillac scored much higher than its cross-town rival from Lincoln. While testers found the American luxury sedan to offer a quiet ride and quality fit and finish, they felt the MKS delivered a "cramped driving position, ungainly handling, uncomposed ride, and limited visibility." Ouch. At the end of the day, both cars fell short of rivals from Japan, Germany and Korea. Check out the full press release below with more details, along with CR's musings on the Chevrolet Spark and Lexus ES.
Carpool Deville aims to be the world's fastest hot tub
Wed, 16 Jul 2014The world needs crazy inventors with wild dreams. While we might not long for the things that they create, their contraptions certainly make the day a little more enjoyable. Take the Carpool Deville as an example. Nobody (well, almost nobody) is asking for a hot tub fashioned from a 1969 Cadillac that is still drivable. But now that you know that such a beast exists, don't try to tell us you aren't at least intrigued.
The team behind the six-year-long project has a pretty ingenious setup worked out. The Caddy's original 472-cubic-inch (7.7-liter) V8 both provides propulsion and heats the water. The interior is entirely replaced with a watertight, fiberglass tub that includes working jets, and the controls are all done by hand.
As if just building a mobile hot tub isn't enough, the team behind the Carpool Deville plans to take it racing too. Specifically, they intend to go to the Bonneville Salt Flats later this year to make a top speed run while immersed in water at over 100 degrees. They even have a roll cage all set to install to meet the safety requirements there.
