| Re: Best Allante to buy? Id still say stick with a 93, and if not a 92, the negatives in that post above really seem to be quite minor quirks and the car overall has a more modern look and feel in some of even the "cheaper" components. Of all the negatives on the 93,the only thing that would be a major consideration for me is the lack of the Bose stereo which is absolutely rediculous to be missing on a car of this level. On the flip-side of the coin, extravagances like that customized Lighting System would actually be something id run from rather than desire, as those are exactly the kind of electronic components than begin to exhibit failure after a number of years and are difficult to find and expensive to repair. Agreed with Allante North* however that if youve got two cars in front of you, and the 91 has a better service history, condition and less owner hand-offs thats a no brainer, also agreed that this kind of car is quite a responsibility to keep running in any form, just like the Buick Regatta and some other semi-unusual GM cars around that time. Definitely need to have patience and dedication to keep these guys in tip-top shape.
Whatever year you get you will love, take your time!
