Offtopic: who owns DeLorean here?

**cdfvortex** · 13-03-2006, 17:31

Is there a man here on SPF who owns this car or who's parents or other family members does? Have anybody ever seen this car with his own eyes?:shocked:

PS I know this is real offtopic but sorry me, i'm just curious.:rolleyes:

One word:

Back to the Future

(Well, that's the closest I've ever got to a DeLorean :grin: )

I thought there were only a few of those made.

I've seen one around my work several times a few years back. I was close enough to touch it but didn't (a car that I respect). Nice car for sure.

IMO it looks stupid.

When I was a kid, there was a DeLorean dealer about two miles from my house in NJ. After the big DeLorean drug bust, the cars just sat there in the lot, unsold, for several months. It was pretty cool to drive by and see an entire lot full of those silver cars, though.

I thought about getting one, but have you seen the price of a replacement flux capacitator? Outrageous!

lol, noodle...

I worked for a startup once upon a time and we contracted all of our IT work out to a 24 year old with his own company (he was cheap and he knew his stuff)...

... Imagine our surprise when he came out to our office to do some work and he pulled up in a Delorean. 'twas a very cool thing.

Edit: Hey skunkbelly, are you watching your post count? You're close to a special number :rolleyes:
