1992 Allanté
The all-new 1993 convertible was launched early in spring 1992, so the 1992 Allante was basically a carry-over from the previous year. It was again offered in convertible and convertible hardtop configurations and was powered by the 4.5-liter V-8 paired with the F-7 four-speed automatic transaxle.
| The 1992 Cadillac had a 17-symbol vehicle identification number (VIN) stamped on a metal tag attached to the upper left surface of the cowl visible through the windshield. The digits of the code were as follows: |

Seventh = the restraint code:

| Ninth = a check digit |
| 10th = model year, "N" for 1992 |
| 11th = the assembly plant |
