1991 Cadillac Allante 2 Dr STD Convertible
Review
I purchased this car in 1997. I have pampered it, and it has met all expectations. It is a very advanced car for its year. People in traffic want to know about it. People at the gas station want to know about it. The only flaw from the factory was a slight - you can only find it if you know where to look- imperfection in the paint. I am sure that rubbing compound will remove it. Other than that, it is a terrific automobile.
Favorite Features
Engine, sound system, ride.
Suggested Improvements
Top should be electric.
Beautiful lemon

Review
I'd always loved the look of this car, and finally got a very well preserved one. That was the beginning of my trouble. It was a money pit, and I finally got rid of it at a horrible loss, after endless major repair bills. The mechanics were never able to get the suspension right, to my thinking, and too much time was spent in the shop (and far too much money). The ride was too harsh (ever after replacing all four computer controlled shocks w/ OEM parts at terrific expense). This pretty much scared me off Cadillac for life. My Vette rode better, and got better mileage.
Favorite Features
Beautiful bodywork, big engine.
Suggested Improvements
Fix the suspension, improve quality and mileage and performance.
Excellent car for the well informed

Review
Series II (1990.5 -1992) Allantes are the best value in a semi-exotic in the market. The Recaro seats have firm support and are not appreciated by the heavy-bummed gold-chained set. The handling improves dramatically by the fitment of contemporary tires and better brake pads. Fit and finish are exemplary. Make sure you bleed the Teves brake system annually. No Northstar, but much better interior materials than the '93 version. This is a very under-rated car and reliable if mundane Cadillac drivetrain. Buy one for the price of a used Ford, and enjoy the ride. Upgrade of sound system is mandatory.
Favorite Features
Interior materials, finish; reliable if parochial drivetrain. SDD struts when working.
Suggested Improvements
Tires, brakes (need to be flushed annually including accumulator and pump), top is Euro-manual. Radio is terrible; Replacement SDD struts impossible to locate.

Review
I really like my Caddy. The car has had it's problems with the conv. top, but nothing that couldn't be fixed. The only problem I have with the car is the seats. The seats seem a little too stiff for me but I get used to them. This car is a major head turner and their aren't a lot out there anymore. It's my baby I never had.
Favorite Features
I love the dash and the driver information center. It makes the car look really ahead of it's time.
Suggested Improvements
Better gas mileage, easy-to-open conv. top, and drop some of the weight.
