My uncle in law owned one of these through the 90's, everybody thought it was amazing. Then, he decided he wanted to "upgrade" to a 90's Vette which he customized with custom green and purple flame paint, custom interior, and Lambo doors. Now he has a clown car with bubbling paint that looks like a huge piece of shit.
Delorean was a great concept but it was doomed from the start, They got 100 million form the Brits with strings attached that doomed the company. They had to pay inexperienced workers premium pay & benefits. When you are trying to run a for profit business with a gov that provided funding mainly to employ people, not turn a profit, pulling the strings it is destined to fail. They went to Ireland for low labor but ended up having to pay premium wages to inexperienced workers. Worst of both worlds
Man, I remember when I took that car out for a spin when my friend got one. And let me tell you, when it hit 88 miles an hour, I saw some serious sh*t!
I really wish people would do some actual research before making dumbass jokes like this. John DeLorean DIDNT DO IT. This is fact not opinion, but like I said if you did some actual research you would know
"beautifully crafted for long life" - What a joke! My dad bought one when they first came out and the transmission went out in less than 6 months and parts were impossible to get, even for the dealer.
Friend used to have one back in the late 80s. It was unique but was always afraid to get it up to 88 mph as I'm not into time travel. Had a Volvo engine, as I recall.
I saw this for real! It was down the street from my house! The car is really cool and small! The stainless stell made the car not to rust when it rains. The car is long lasting! It never brakes down! I love the delorean DMC 12 and the delorean time machine from all three back to the future movies. Like doc brown saids great scott! Marty saids you build a time machine out of a delorean!
If u took one and modified it, it could be mire like it was intended to be. A better engine and drivetrain with some suspension improvements, imagine if someone like Chip Foose made one....
@TheLoneSniper554 they discontinued them because they knew it could time travel. our time space continuum would be F-ed in the A if this was available to the public.
I believe many were fitted with Volvo engines...not a good match.
There's an interesting article in Hemming's Classic Car Aug 2011 on Delorean. Basically 8,600 cars were produced in 1981-82 and have a cult following mainly due to the movie...and the ride that was at Universal Studios in the mid-90's.
@chargalant You are funny the top speed of a delorean is around 120 mph but due to the United States laws back then speedos were made with 85 mph top outs. So how is there no power? They may not have been a bullet a take off with 0-60 being 9 seconds but that is still a decent top speed and acceleration considering it is made of steel.
Many people complained about the car's defects when the first Deloreans rolled out of the factory but of the 9000 cars sold in the US, 30 years ago, almost 7000 are still on the road. They were not "disposable" cars like most of today's 4-cylnder cars which you have to junk after they reach 80,000 miles. And contrary to popular myth, DMZ was not a "failed" company; it had enough orders to keep it going for 3 years. I just hope the new Deloreans are as good as the originals.
If you took the time to do some actual research, you would know that these cars were NEVER used to smuggle drugs of any kind. I really hate the drug jokes, they're not funny especially since He DIDNT DO IT. And this isnt opinion, its fact. But like I said, you would already know that if you did some actual research. But apparently its easier for people to just crack jokes. Wouldnt want to be proven wrong would we??
@XenomorphLV426 There is no real problem with the engine, just the way in which it was setup for the american market. It was originally a 200hp engine, but the US emissions choked the exhaust down which then lowered the HP. The car is only a few hundred more lbs than an Alpine A310 and has the same exact engine... with the perfect setup
Yes, the regulations in the U.S with the catalyctic converters choked 20hp off the original 150hp and they did some bad changes to the suspension system. I know the DeLorean specced for Europe didn't have these changes and was released as originally intended.
