Microsoft makes lots of money too, yet their business ethics can be questioned... I am simply doing the same with DMCH. You are correct, they are entitled to charge whatever they want for whatever they want. I just find it curious that most of the parts they are re-making are parts that had alternate solutions already. I conclude the goal was to undercut the competition. The end result is good for me (something nice too say), because I can now buy better quality door pistons, steering racks, and fuel level senders from other vendors for the same cost as the DMCH products. I own a car that was built by "DeLorean Motor Company Inc", which is no longer in existence. It is misleading for them to have registered themselves as "DeLorean Motor Company" on May 12, 1995. The technicality of "INC" is likely what allowed them to do this. If the REAL DMC was still in business, there would have been a lawsuit to stop this confusion. DMCH uses this confusion to their (deliberate) advantage. Reprinting SSI, a piece of DeLorean history, to promote themselves and all other actions to mislead the public it to thinking that they are the company that built our cars should be offensive to all DeLorean owners. Some of us "older timers" remember when there was a DeLorean One of Texas, which by coincidence was registered at 10804 ROARK RD. "DeLorean Motor Company" is registered at the same address according to Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts ( http://ecpa.cpa.state.tx.us/coa/Index.html ). Draw your own conclusions. My conclusion is there was a bitter divorce, and this is a large factor in the motivation for the way DMCH does things. I know I am not the only person on this list who can see the emperor is naked... Too bad we are a minority.
