It sure looks good. Cars are made to be driven. Now let me think, without cheating. It would have the 4.5 Northstar vice the older 4.1 right? I've read that the 4.1s can be troublesome.

Jim,

Glad to have you here, and participating!

Am I seeing a triple black w/a red stripe Allante? When you say "high mileage," what are we talking?

Do I also see dual exhaust? Did you install that on the car? Is it functional, or just for looks? It looks sharp! How hard was that to do?

How long have you had her? Do you work on it yourself, or have others do it? I ask, as I need to bleed the brakes on mine. It will be the first time I have ever done such on an Allante, and wonder if you have any tips for me?

When we bought ours, it was a bit of a toss up whether to go for a '92 or '93. I know their are diehard advocates for each year. We ended up going with a '92 because we felt the Recaro seats both looked and felt better.

One who has never driven one of these cars has no idea how much fun they are to drive. I love the low-end torque abilities they exhibit.
