    New DeLorean - from the "It Could Happen" files

    Yeah, the same low-powered vehicle that died during a bad drug deal may come back.

    No specs yet, but there is talk of an engine making at least 3 times the original's power output.

    Me? Still into cars - waiting to see if my new Diesel Jeep shows up on the build line. It should take about 6 more weeks.

    That's the company that has been restoring the original DeLoreans for years .....

    Yep, that's the ones. They've been quoted as saying a new one will cost about $100,000.00. Frankly, at that price point, it'll need to be able to run with "exotics" to ensure sales.

    Remeber back in the day we were asked to paint one. Don't know if that ever happened as I left before the project came in.

    Yeah, I missed my chance too.

    Right at the end of the DeLorean fiasco, a local company sold their remaining stock of DeLoreans at $15,000 each. But did I buy - no, dang it!
