Why do you care so much about what other people think? I think the benefits of the De Lorean outweigh any drawbacks of it. For example, the fact that a good part of the car cannot rust, the gull-wings, reliable engine and transmission...the only drawback I can think of is that it only has two seats! I think the De Lorean is cool because of its colourful history, its design, its publicity, the looks, and of course, the relation to BTTF....I dont see how its nerdy? If you modernize it, you will kill it. It will not be a De Lorean. Thomas Mc Auley Vin #4087 Belfast Videobob Moseley <videobob@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: "they" love our cars? Let's all try a science experiment. Next car show, set up a video or audio recrding device at the rear of the car, hidden and out of site. Have the engine bay open with specs about the engine clearly posted...then go hide and listen to the recording and see what people are saying about the engine while looking at it. Let's postpone this discussion until there is some scientific research in the field to base theory on. - VB [very long quote trimmed by moderator] To address comments privately to the moderating team, please address: moderators@xxxxxxxxxxx For more info on the list, tech articles, cars for sale see www.dmcnews.com To search the archives or view files, log in at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/dmcnews Yahoo!
