Re: Best Allante to buy?

i believe the racing stats are somewhere, i will hunt them
down when i get a chance.

i also believe that the gas tank in the '93 is a bit larger to compensate
for the lower mpg, which is in part due to the extra poundage C.K. pointed out.

REPLY #5 & #7 offer hard facts about the different model years
from '87 to '93.

to the untrained eye, hood down, they all look the same, they all call
attention, but as i said before, unless you are spinning them rpms high at
double digit speeds you will hardly tell the difference.

i do love the clean engine compartment of the '93 N.S., but there are
other things around the car that keep sending me back to the '91/'92.

there is actually no significant differences between
the 90 1/2 to '92 Phase II models.

on the other hand, picking up a nice Hard Top '88 in this Feb 2007 can be done for under $3,000 where as my Hard Top equipped '92 (i wish) runs about 3X that and the '93's even more, much more. i can buy enough '88s to hand off to each driver of my family for the price of one '93, unless its a high mileage (100,000 miles) and no Hard Top, where the '93 prices plummet severely.

let me point out to the "collector" minded that recently several 3,000 mile
'93s have SOLD for around $25k to $30k. these cars were LIKE NEW
and someone shelled out around $60k for each, only 13 yers ago. investment?
