Cool, not sure I would want to spend 58k on one though

Taras · 02-23-2009, 09:26 PM

still cool though. It would be awesome to turbo or sc it.

ZGear · 02-23-2009, 09:26 PM

I did the performance package and a bit here and there and totaled 70k.......wow.

Taras · 02-23-2009, 09:31 PM

but its a brand new delorean. The doors... the ss body...the back to the future...!!!;-)

They should have back to the future package with the flux capacitor and stuff.

Funny thing is, the car is native to Ireland.

Taras · 02-23-2009, 10:43 PM

i actually was really surprised when i heard that. I always thought it was a US car.

Untold · 02-23-2009, 11:07 PM

This is pretty old news, actually, but awesome none the less.

There's a V8 DeLorean rolling around here in Lino every summer.

And IIRC the design was Canadian.

Untold · 02-23-2009, 11:47 PM

kongzilla · 02-24-2009, 06:03 AM

Meh, you can have the original for less than half that price. You can pay ~60K but they haven't fixed the issue of it being under powered.

Plus the originals are stainless steel as well, so if they were taken care of they are still clean.

I think you're hitting the Stricklin end of things. Closely related companies as far as owners goes.

Worn out rubber, rusted hardware, worn interior, window seals, dents, etc. I'd rather have one built from NOS.

NOM3RCY · 02-24-2009, 12:05 PM

I'd rather just not have one. These things are for virgins.

Umm...John Delorian was the guy who helped start the musclecar era. He was the creator of the Pontiac GTO in the mid-60's.
