Noah and List, Although I have purchased a few Deloreans using ebay, I do not recommend an ebay Delorean purchase for someone who cannot get to the car for a pre-purchase inspection or have someone they know (who knows Deloreans) go do a pre-purchase inspection. The biggest problem that can occur with most "big ticket" ebay purchases is TIME; usually not enough time to get all details. A better option for most Delorean purchases is the DMC News Deloreans For Sale page, where there is 30 - 50 Deloreans for sale at any given time and it is still the largest continuous source for Deloreans for sale. Most of the ads on DMC News run longer than 7 - 10 days, so you have time to have the car inspected, either in person or by another Delorean enthusiast. Odds are, there will be a Delorean for sale near you on DMC News. (this was not a paid commercial endorsement for the DMC News site) And when you do find and purchase a Delorean, record or update the information about the car, to keep our directories current. http://www.dmcnews.com/directory.html Good luck in your quest of living the dream.
