Hey guys, here I am filming this very first and last generation Cadillac Allante that has been all new since 1987, which is the same exact year of this one I am filming here. To maintain a luxury market position in the 1980s, Cadillac sought an aspirational model that would combine the prestige of a European design with the renown of a European coachbuilder to help Cadillac compete with Mercedes and Jaguar. It would become the first modern-era two-passenger Cadillac roadster and the first to wear the Cadillac name since the Cadillac Series 355 roadster of the 1930s. The last year of the Cadillac Allante is 1993. The nameplate Allanté was selected by General Motors from 1,700 computer-generated potential names. Originally designed to compete with the Mercedes-Benz SL and Jaguar XJS, the Allanté initially featured a slightly modified variant of the 4.1 L V8 used across Cadillac's model line. This was expanded to 4.5 L in 1989 and upgraded to the 4.6 L L37 Northstar. Hope you guys like this video!
