While I respect Shannon's opinion, I do not believe that he speaks on
behalf of "most people." I had a 6.6 liter Trans Am when I was a
teenager and got the horsepower bug out of my system then. For my daily
driving needs today, the stock DeLorean engine has more than enough
power. I am much more concerned about fuel economy and reliability.

If you want exotic appearance with that kind of horsepower you might be
better off getting a Lotus Esprit. They are notoriously unreliable and
ridiculously expensive to repair, but they have a lot more power for
only slightly more money than a DeLorean.
