Much love to John DeLorean and the DMC-12... Our world needs more of you guys! RIP

I am afraid I am cought up with the rest of the world. What experience do you have with the DeLorean to make such comment's? I have not given my opinion I have only given facts. You on the otherhand are giving an openion based on bias media "Top Gear" for an example. DeLorean did care about image but also wanted a vehicle that would last and not break down like todays disposable cars

I DID NOT LIKE DeVitos insipid remark when he said that the DeLorean "Entrapment" defense was ridiculous. DeVito go "F" yourself. When DeLorean wanted to locate in Belfast , right before production started , the Government hit him with unbelieveable fees that were NOT in his original agreement with them. ANYway--The FBI during this time was running amuck. When they bullied Larry Flint ,Flint helped DeLorean by showing the actual FBI sting tapes on DeLorean. Look'em up.

Will u go to Heaven when u die? Quick test.Ever lied,stole,used God's name in vain?Jesus said if u look w/lust you adulterd in ur heart.Looked w/lust? Will u be guilty on Judgment day?God sees u as a lying thief,blaspemer & adulter at heart.Bible warns u WILL go to Hell if guilty.God's rich in love & mercy. Jesus suffered & died on the cross for guilty sinners & rose 3 days later.He paid our fine.Please repent (turn from sin),trust Jesus (like a parachute) as Lord (Master of ur life) & SaVior

@sleepeeg3 I'm not sure if this is a poor attempt at a joke or you're serious...

[SpeedingStudent]

@corvettels9 Plus he lived the life of a Playboy, and dressed like a boss.

De Lorean didn't follow fashion trends, he set them!

[SpeedingStudent]

I am halfway through De Lorean's "On a Clear Day You Can See General Motors", and I must say, this man was brilliant, even if the DMC-12 was a dog in it's final form.

You were a visionary in the automotive world, Mr. De Lorean. You are sorely missed by those that knew of your engineering and marketing brilliance.

Seriously, read the book. This man was a damned genius, surrounded by dumbasses.

DeLorean and Danny DeVito, any better combination?!

[corvettels9]

I don't care if he was trafficking any kind of drugs, dude invented the GTO AND the DeLorean. kickass.
