Re: [DML] DMC Prices

[Dick Ryan <deloreanbiker@xxxx>]

When asked about price (value) of a DeLorean, I always
start by quoting the price from DMC Houston for a
warranteed, reconditioned car; ie, $29,500. This give
a frame of reference the questioner can understand. 
Then I start talking about trailer queens, daily
drivers, and "hurts", pointing out that , yes, there
are $8-10K cars out there and if you are a good
mechanic with $5-6K to spend on parts, then one of
those $8-10K cars MIGHT be a good deal. 

BTW, if addtion to Ebay, I think we have to consider
the impact of BTTF. On the one hand, BTTF made our
cars very recognizable to a whole new generation of
potential owners. On the other hand, those movies
trivialized our cars to the point of making them
appear as a "Disney-like" creation. Thus, not to be
taken seriously as a collector/special car.
