I thought those were long gone.

Pretty cool. Don't think I'd want to own one, but it'd be fun to drive for a weekend.

good find!

Kind of old. Dec 07 issue of Robb Report ran a story on that. From what it said, they still had a warehouse full of DMC-12 parts leftover somewhere, so some outfit in TX bought them all and started selling them again. John Z. Delorean is long gone of course...

Ill buy it if it costs $5000 OTD.

One of the original Caddy DeLorean dealerships used to be right down the street where I grew up. They had DeLoreans there all the time. Plus like 8 or so parked in the back of the lot that must have been parts cars. The dealership closed about 3 years ago.

They supposedly had a few for sale and they wouldn't let you test drive them unless you gave a $500 non-refundable deposit as to not have people racking up miles on them.

The DMC shop in Houston has been around for a long long time. I use to drive by it all the time in the early '00's.

See a guy driving his Delorean to the dog park every morning.

$57,500 Starting. Yeow!! I rememebr when they were only selling re-manufactured ones for like $35,000.

As cool as that car is, and as long as I've loved them, they arn't $60,000 cars.

There's a lot of really fine cars you can buy for that kind of money.

Glad to see they got the new Non-rusting lower frames now, But I see the Turbo Kit never panned out.
