1988 Cadillac Allant " 64,850 Miles Silver Metallic over Maroon Exceptional Original Condition The late 1980s marked Cadillac's bold effort to challenge European luxury roadsters, and the result was the remarkable Allant-a sophisticated two-seat convertible blending Italian design with American engineering. This 1988 Cadillac Allant, showing just 64,850 miles, is an exceptionally well-preserved example that reflects the pride of careful ownership and thoughtful stewardship over the decades. Finished in Silver Metallic with a rich Maroon interior, this elegant color combination was significant enough that Cadillac selected it for use in the official dealer sales brochure-a copy of which accompanies the car. The paint presents as factory original, and the interior remains impressively authentic with original seat coverings and trim still intact. This Allant was owned for many years by the seller's father, who was known for his meticulous care and enthusiasm for the car. During his ownership the Cadillac was regularly displayed at high-level car shows, including appearances at Concours d'Elegance events, where it earned multiple awards. The trophies and certificates from those events are included with the car, offering a wonderful piece of provenance that reflects its long-standing presentation quality. Originality & Notable Details Information displayed with the car at shows highlights several particularly desirable features: VIN: 1G6VR3170JU10098 64,850 miles from new Original factory wheels and tires are included in the sale (a newer upgraded set is currently mounted) Factory original exhaust, cooling system, brakes, and engine components Factory original interior including seat coverings and trim Equipped with the rare analog instrument cluster (fewer than 8% of Allants were ordered this way) 1988 production totaled just over 1,800 units, making it the second-lowest production year for the model The Allant Story The Allant's creation is one of the most fascinating manufacturing stories in automotive history. Designed and built by Pininfarina in Turin, Italy, the bodies were transported to the United States aboard specially modified Boeing 747 cargo aircraft in what Cadillac called the "Air Bridge." Once in Detroit, they were completed at Cadillac's Poletown Assembly Plant, where each car underwent testing before delivery. At the time, Cadillac aimed the Allant squarely at European luxury roadsters such as the MercedesBenz 560SL, making it Cadillac's most ambitious luxury convertible of the era. Adding a fun cultural footnote, this Silver over Maroon color combination was also featured on the Allant seen in the action film Tango & Cash, driven by Sylvester Stallone. Recent Inspection Following the passing of the long-time owner, the family had a mechanic perform a comprehensive inspection and servicing to ensure the car was ready for its next caretaker. The mechanic confirmed the car's excellent mechanical condition and overall originality. The family then drove the car approximately 30"40 minutes from their home to Classic Auto Showplace, where it is now being offered for sale. A Rare Opportunity With its documented show history, remarkable originality, and desirable presentation, this Allant represents a rare chance to acquire one of Cadillac's most interesting modern classics. Whether for continued show participation, weekend enjoyment, or as a collectible piece of Cadillac history, it is an example that will impress both enthusiasts and collectors. We invite you to visit Classic Auto Showplace and see this exceptional Allant in person-you'll immediately appreciate the care and preservation that sets it apart.
