The "Secretariat" of engines, this Northstar flies like the wind. I am the second owner, & have had it in the garage the last 20 years. I take it out on PCH on Sundays, & open it up with just my big toe on the gas pedal, that engine is so strong. She still holds her own amongst the Ferrari's & Lamborghini's on the road with her. My almost equal favorite to the outrageously strong engine is how BEAUTIFUL she is. Absolutely gorgeous body design. Over the years multiple people have asked to run their hands along her body. The Italian genius that created this design knew what he was doing. Another winning feature is that the Trunk is huge! We never had to worry about not having enough room for everything. I originally planned to save this Gem for our kids, but she's just too strong. I would prefer to see her go to someone who knows how to handle such a powerful sports car. Just as if she were a champion Race Horse, this Allante is still rearing to go. It's an electric ride being forced back into the seat with all that massive 0 to 50 in seconds, AND the wind blowing in your hair! Which is why your going to LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this Italian-American Pininforino Beauty!
