A buddy of mine's father-in-law is a certified Delorean Tech. He says that they are poor, poor cars (to say the least). The latest one he had in the shop was essentially coming apart (due to the glue/adhesive that holds a lot of the car together losing its grip after 20+ years).
The old ones are cool to look at, dogs to drive. I'd like to see a new one though.
Interesting...when I went to a track day at the California Speedway earlier this year there was a fleet of Aston Martin's. A guy who claimed he was one of the design engineers said they had the cars there for a select group of high rollers that they were flying in to "wring them out on the track."
He told us that there were NO welds on the car. Everything was held together with adhesives...
