This is mostly old news, but I am posting three quotes from today's Chicago Sun Times because I think many DML subscribers will find JZD's words to be amusing and interesting The whole article is here: http://www.suntimes.com/output/auto/delor03.html DeLorean was arrested by the FBI in Los Angeles in 1982 and charged with attempting to help finance a cocaine-selling operation, with profits presumably to be used to rescue his failing car company. He later was acquitted. "What controversy?" DeLorean said with a laugh during the interview, when asked if that incident would handicap raising funds for his ventures. ----------------------------------------------------------------- DeLorean said he has formed DeLorean Time LLC, a company that will "design and distribute innovative, high-quality limited production runs of items such as watches and sunglasses. "There is a big market for artifacts with my name on it," he said. ----------------------------------------------------------------- "We've handled it all before," DeLorean said when asked about his expertise in building cars. "We're shooting for a weight of only 1,450 pounds with my mass-produced car. It'll have gullwing [flip-up] doors like the DeLorean sports car. I really like those doors." Note that JZD himself refers to our cars as "The DeLorean Sports Car," not the DMC 12. Years ago when I titled my car, the state of Ohio told me they do not recognize DMC 12 as a model, but they do recognize DeLorean Sports Car. - Mike Substelny VIN 01280, 7 years
