Competition
Chrysler claimed that the TC was not in competition with the two-seater Cadillac Allanté nor the Buick Reatta. The Allanté was also Italian-designed and partially hand-built. The Allanté was powered by a 200 hp 4.5L V8 engine ('89-'92) with final assembly in the U.S. (after the bodies built in Italy were shipped via special air cargo) at a price of more than $17,000 over the TC. The Reatta was a 170 hp V6-powered roadster with a suggested price about $15,000 lower than the TC.
