"Get one now!"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

None that couldn't be fixed for under 10 bucks ;-)

General comments?

This car rocks! A real head turner. Although this car is over 10 years old, it has enough power to smoke most cars off the line and enough luxury to make you not care that you can ;-)

Better off with a BMW.

Unfortunately most BMW's during this time frame will not be collectable compared to the Cadillac Allante. The Allante is a very high maintenance

vehicle, BUT it was ahead of its time with all the on board computers compared to other vehicles. Performance wise some BMW's are better,

but the styling points go to the Allante. Just my 2 cents.

BMW in the 80's sucked... even the early 90's... ones looked bad.

I like the car so much that I got me a 2nd one, problem is that I am using the older one for parts to keep the 1st one on the road. High maintenance doesn't explain it enough. Money pit is more accurate. They are lookers, but be ready to pay and then some. Things that go wrong?

ABS brakes, $1,200 fix,

Transmission solenoids fail, $900 fix,

Electronics failing, $ money pit arena,

Suspension failures, $600 fix,

BOSE sytem failure, $500 fix,

it goes on and on ...

Now you see why the 1st car is a parts car?
