This is exactly the reasoning I follow when trying to get out to shows and events and talk to people about the DeLorean. I repeatedly meet people, as I am sure all owners do, who have many misconceptions about the DeLorean. Recently while I attended the Atlantic City Classic car auction I was asked countless questions as I stood next to the DeLorean that was there. Probably because of my DeLorean Jacket :-) Anyway people are really interested in our cars at events like these and other shows. I believe there is no better way to promote the marque than by getting out and attending these events so the public can see the cars. Also so we as knowledgeable owners can educate people about the truths about the DeLorean such as reliability, availability of cars and parts, and so on and to dispel the many misconceptions we all hear such as "That's a Ford motor right?" or "They only made a thousand of these because they were unreliable" and so on. I am sure we have all heard our share. I know I did before I started researching about DeLoreans to eventually buy one. It was knowledgeable and courteous owners (and especially the DML) that lead me to be an informed buyer, which resulted in my purchasing a really nice D. I don't think I would have drove from NJ to Michigan to buy my car if it weren't for the people on this list, and other owners and specialists like Rob Grady for one, who helped me to be aware of all the things to look for in a DeLorean when considering buying one. In any event, when we can meet people and talk to them and get the real story of the DeLorean out there, then we are helping to promote our cars collectability and value. And also help others to eventually Live The Dream.

Let people know they're obtainable, reasonably priced and repairable. It was the sight of Gary Gore's D at two car shows a few weeks apart that convinced me that I wanted a D, and could actually go through with it. >>
