In last week's AutoTrader someone was selling two DeLoreans for $10K. One running, the other a 'parts car.' Hehe. BTW, the DeLorean showed back up at the dealer I mentioned above after being gone for a few months... Now I really want to go take a look.

Delorean Motor Company in Texas refurbishes and sells "new" Deloreans. In fact, on www.delorean.com, you can configure your new Delorean just like with other new cars. They also offer upgrades that make the car they way it was originally planned to be (it couldn't be made this way because of strict 80's bumper requirements, emissions, etc). They offer a power upgrade boosting power to 195, and a slightly lower suspension, as was originally planned. Other options are available, like a roof rack (actually over the rear window, not the roof), rare factory "Delorean" side stripes, polished Delorean wheels, etc. You can also deliver your Delorean to them if you already own one (hint hint Yogs ), and they will do any restoration that your cars needs. They have HUGE warehouses full of new/refurbished parts, so don't even let your insurance company charge a premium "because parts are hard to get."

I can't believe someone has never seen a Delorean!! I usually see one every couple of months, sometimes even more frequently than that.

I would love to own one, Back to the Future was one of my favorite movies as a little kid, I even got to "drive" one of the cars used in the filming at the 1990 NY Auto Show (it had complete time circuits and flux capacitor).

The lowest price I've seen so far...

"From: Greg
Subject: 1981 Delorean: FOR SALE $5900
Message: I am selling my 1981 Delorean for $5900 (no trades). It looks good, runs good, has manuual transmition, new tires, has 79k miles, and is not painted (stainless). This car needs some work and is being sold as is. Please e-mail me if you wish to purchase the car. By the way, I am in Sacramento, California (USA)."

-----------------------------------


At this price, who gives a crap what is wrong with it. The parts alone are worth about six times this price. This guy is a dumba**!!!

There is a Delorean at a junk yard near by...

heres its story according to the owner

he bought it for 10000 and it was scractched and dented... he spent another 20 000 to restore it to perfect condition

After he was done he took it out for a drive and he was on the highway and he was looking at his wife next to him and he didnt notice an 18 wheeler infront of him... he smashed into the back of it... but to boot he stopped so abruptly that a car behind him trying to get a look @ his new car slide into the back of him...

so the back and front of his 30000 dollar delorean were crunched. He took it to an apraiser and the guy said that the chassis was bent beyond belief... total for repairs 150 000

and that is how it got there today
