If you ever in LA near Beverly Hills, CA, stop by the Petersen Automotive Museum and see this DeLorean and other amazing bikes, cars, and hundreds of other vehicles.

Direct quote: "In 1981 and 1982, former Pontiac executive John DeLorean built a stylish, upscale sports car that retailed for $26,175. Although a major selling point was the car's low-maintenance stainless steel finish, three were painted for experimental purposes and three were gold-plated. Built in 1981, the 24-karat gold-plated cars were created for an American Express promotion and listed in their Christmas catalog for $85,000. This DeLorean was displayed in the lobby of a Texas bank from the time it was purchased in 1981 until it was donated to the Petersen Automotive Museum in 2003. It has traveled a mere 7.4 miles since new and remains in entirely original condition."
