Matt,

I too saw that ad (actually, it's been UC before and at the same price).
However, it's not really a good example of the price of DeLoreans in
Australia. We bought ours (an RHD '82 model) for substantially less, and
there is currently a LHD DeLorean in Melbourne listed at $35,000 (you can
check it out at www.intercar.com.au - type "DeLorean" into the search field).

I believe you would pay nearly as much as that "concours winner" if you were
to import one from the USA, because there are so many fees, duties and taxes
involved that it'd drive you 'round the bend (not to mention the low
exchange rates)! Plus, the RTA (in NSW at least) requires that all imported
vehicles be converted to RHD for them to be considered road-worthy.

Anyway, that's my 2 cents...
