[DML] Re: Need to talk to a DMCH remanufactured owner...

I think there's a difference in paying $50K for a rebuilt Delorean and 
a typical used-car purchase. I see several reasons, for some people, to 
pay the additional labor fees for a newer Delorean:

1) After paying the premium price, I don't think too many would intend 
to sell it anytime soon.

2) Unlike typical cars, an good condition Delorean doesn't seem to sink 
below about $20K, regardless of the vehicle age. That doesn't happen 
with a Mustang, Camry or an SUV.

3) Automobiles, unless they're special, are poor investments anyway. If 
you're looking for money back from a car purchase, I'd suggest you try 
real estate instead.

4) You could easily spend the additional $25K you'd spend on a refurb'd 
Delorean fixing up any other car, buying an RV (I did!) or something 
else that wouldn't be as unique as a Delorean. Renovate a 60's Ford 
Thunderbird and see what that costs you.

4) In my case, I just want to drive the car for a long time. In fact, 
it would take a financial downturn for me to sell the car.
