Re: Best Allante to buy?

I've owned a '92 (new) and two '93's. (Down to one '93). I loved all of them, To argue about which year is 'best' is kinda like trying to decide whether to marry a blonde, brunette or redhead before you meet them! (Allante's are somewhat like women, lots of work - but lot's of fun, they can be demanding, and sometimes they won't talk to you, (or run properly).

I agree that maintenance is the issue. NOT year or miles.

I have seen some 'hanger queens' that were not driven for months, and I'd prefer one that has been driven some, (and maintained), to a low milage car that becomes your worst nightmare. (Kinda like a beauty queen without makeup).

I do track Allante prices, and in my opinion NOW, (May 2006), is the time to buy, as prices are starting to escalate rapidly. Choose the color you like in a well maintained Allante and enjoy the heck out of it. (Just don't forget to change the fluids and buy it a card on your anniversary!)
