[DML] Re: Numer of automatics (was "unknown")

["ksgrimsr" <knut.s.grimsrud@xxxxxxxxx>]

Joe suggests there is only a small number of automatic transmission 
DeLoreans out there.

That's not actually the case -- the DMC survey information we have 
thus far (available on the DMCNews page) indicates that:

36% of '81 model cars have auto transmissions
17% of '82 model cars have auto transmissions
18% of '83 model cars have auto transmissions

Taking the differences in production volumes for the three years 
into account, the overall total is that about one third of all 
DeLoreans appear to have automatic transmissions.
