I have only been on the list a few months and consider myself a novice when it comes to most things concerning the DeLorean. However, I have spoken or emailed to many list members, sellers and other experts. I too am a little surprised why DeLorean prices are not higher. Between 1985 and 1988 I wanted my first Delorean but being just out of college and no clue how to even find the car or how to care for it I went for the next best thing i could find, a silver acura integra....cost $12,500. I do remember calling an older gentlemen (I believe in ohio with kapac) who wisely talked me out of buying one. At the time there was no internet and few experts to turn to. Here we are 13 years later and I have finally bought my first Delorean. The price....$12,500. Same as my new 1988 Integra. Several owners have joked with me that when they pull into their local gas station people mosey up to them and think they are looking at a $100,000 car. The owner usually tells me they respond, "don't tell anyone but I'll make you a deal for $40,000" It makes no sense why this cars value is not higher: It can never me produced again, impossible to duplicate, limited quantity and still looks ahead of its time. The only reason I can imagine is that there are always so many for sale. I think at this time there are over 100 currently on the market through the various websites. Some of these cars stay on the market for months with the seller lowering their price in frustration Perhaps like a painting only the death of the artist will bring the car the notorioty it deserves and increase it to the value we all expected. However, most of you drive it for the love of the car which is the reason it was built. It seems alot of the original owner cars are slowly turning up in old warehouses and garages. When these cars disappear from the market and the demand moves past the current supply we will finally see our car prices rise. The only solution is the same as all those internet stocks we all are holding...don't sell. mike c
