1988 Cadillac Allante White Pearl Convertible Soft And Hard Top W/red Leather on 2040-cars

Year:1988 Mileage:111114
Location:

Edinburg, Texas, United States

Edinburg, Texas, United States

 This automobile is in very good shape for its age. The engine, transmission and brakes are all very strong.  The car was repainted in 2011.  A guy hit the left fender in the parking lot at my mechanic. The paint could not be matched so it had to be repainted.  It has centerline wheels which will buff to a mirror shine.  The car was purchased in San Luis Obispo, Ca and lived in CA until 2005. The leather is soft and shows very little wear. No scuffs or tears.  The soft top is serviceable and does not leak, but not very attractive. The air conditioning works but shuts off with the error message "needs refrigerant charge" after about 15 minutes of operation.  It is an unconverted R-12 system and cools very well when fully charged. The car has some eccentricities.  You cannot lock the car with the electric locks without triggering the alarm system. The passenger door window switch doesn't work, driver's side opens both windows does but switch is reversed. Trunk pulldown doesn't work. Tape deck doesn't work. There is a small chip on the front bumper and a scratch on the driver's side of the rear bumper.  Neither photographed well enough to show in pictures. The car has always been garaged and there is only a little surface rust on the undercarriage. Only 2569 of them were made.

I've bought several cars on ebay and was always disappointed in the car when it arrived.  I don't want the buyer of this car to be similarly disappointed, so I have tried to list all of this car's frailties as I know them.  It is not a show car, but one you can be proud to drive. 

This car is sold without warranty express or implied, strictly an "as is, where is" sale.  I will help the buyer with arranging shipping, or he can pick it up.  Sales on ebay form a contract, are final, and should be taken seriously.  Membership privileges are always at stake for the non-paying bidder. $500 non-refundable deposit is due 24 hours after closing of the auction with balance in 3 days. Payment accepted by wire transfer (EFT) or Paypal.

Online Find Of The Day: 2008 Cadillac XLR picks up where Excalibur left off

Thu, 23 May 2013

We try very, very hard to keep snark away from creations like the one you see here. After all, someone poured plenty of enthusiasm, time and money into turning a 2008 Cadillac XLR into a modern interpretation of the new-old cars typically done by cottage builders like Excalibur and Clénet. Even so, it's hard not to wince when you set an eye on this machine. With its wheelbase stretched to accommodate the extra bodywork, goofy sidewalls and upkicked nose (examine it in profile, it looks slightly bent in the middle), this "neoclassic" takes whatever was loveable about the Cadillac underneath and buries it in a tacky grave.
Miraculously, the engine bay has been left unmolested, which means the retractable hardtop convertible still features a 4.6-liter Northstar V8 engine good for 320 horsepower. If only that were enough to outrun its shame. If, for some reason, you feel like taking this thing home, Harry Kaufmann Motorcars of Milwaukee says it can be yours for a paltry $74,998. We wish were joking. Check it out here.

2015 Cadillac ATS sedan gets early reveal in making-of video

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

Cadillac is apparently preparing to roll out a minor facelift for the ATS sedan - which we know not because General Motors has already revealed it or because we're looking at it in a fresh batch of spy shots (though we've seen that too), but because a behind-the-scenes video from the filming of its commercial has leaked out online. Which may be bad news for Cadillac, and even worse news for the film production company, but good news for us, because we get to see it ahead of schedule.
The revised sports sedan seems to be sporting a new front bumper and less egg-cratey grille with Caddy's new wreath-less badge at its center, all apparently put in place to bring the sedan more in line with the new ATS coupe.
We're sure Cadillac will be revealing the updated 2015 ATS sedan shortly, but you can scope it out right now in the video below. By way of comparison, we've included an image gallery of the current ATS, released back in 2013, as well.
