Go For it! I hate to say, however the possibility of ownership several years from now could diminish & limit you several ways...marriage, business venture, death, divorce, mortgage, etc., etc. Owning a DeLorean can be a lot of fun. First ask yourself these two questions... 1) Do I want a flashy, exotic, car so that women swarm & gather around me to ask me for a ride? Yes...buy something new & something else. No...please keep reading. 2) Do you want to restore & work on a very interesting car? No...buy something new & something else. Yes...please proceed. There are several of us that purchased our cars before our twenty-first birthday, it can be accomplished. If a DeLorean is what you want, and you have the wherewithal to maintain the car...purchasing the car is easy...maintaining the DeLorean is expensive and similar to a high maintenance "significant other." The car needs a lot of love and attention. When the car is ignored it starts to act cranky & temperamental...then you need to go shopping & spend some more money on it to calm everything down...sometimes hundreds often thousands...just like my ex-girlfriends. If I can offer one piece of DeLorean advice is to buy a car that you are comfortable with. It does not matter if the car sat in storage for twenty years or if the car was completely restored. You will learn a big lesson in Responsibility in all aspects of your life owing the DeLorean. However, wanting to own a DeLorean is very, very different from actually owning a DeLorean. It will really test your responsibility. Before you decide to purchase a DeLorean, ask yourself if you want to really get to know the machine in an in-depth manner...intimately get to know the car? To restore the car, work on it, spend lots of money, spend lots of time, really get to know what you are capable of mechanically, emotionally, and last but not least financially. If you buy a machine that has been completely restored from the ground up...you will work on it, spend lots of money, spend lots of time, really get to know what you are capable of mechanically, emotionally, and last but not least financially. Still interested? Start buy talking to owners in your area. Look at their cars, look at cars that are driven everyday or regularly...take pictures & make notes. Look at show quality DeLoreans...take pictures...lots of pictures of DeLorean cars. Then look at the cars for sale in your area. Take lots of pictures...make notes and compare the photographs that you have taken. You will see a big difference in all three cars... The pictures and your notes will help you develop a list of what you feel is necessary to make a DeLorean that you have discovered safe, reliable, and enjoyable. This will help you develop a budget...unless money isn't an object. In addition, there are the USA DeLorean specialists. They all offer DeLorean cars for sale with a Warranty for a mileage and time period. The cars are beautiful and reliable. If I was planning to purchase a DeLorean for the first time, knowing what I know now about the cars, I would purchase a very clean, updated DeLorean from the DeLorean specialist.
