There was a DMC dealer in Cape town South Africa in 1982. If my memory is
correct, 80 cars went there.
When I had the DMC with me in college, the International Students went wild
over the car...which was funny as hell to watch them admire the car since it
wasn't restored or up to standard. The Japanese, Korean, and students from
South Africa loved the DMC so much that they would constantly take pictures of
it, during all hours of the night. My dorm room was on the first floor then,
and I had a clear view of my parking space outside my window. I had to put
my hi-8mm video camera on a tripod in the window, just to give the appearance
that the car was monitered.
My girlfriend at the time was from Germany and when her parents saw the car,
they wanted me to ship the car home with her!
My asshole of a roommate was from the Middle East and sulked & pouted like a
baby about how much female attention the Delorean received. His goal in
life was to "out perform" everyone as he had the biggest chip on his shoulder
and pissed everyone off, gold chains, fake Rolex, way too much cologne et al.
It was comical hearing about how he made such an ass of himself. His family
gave him a new 1996 collectors edition vette. That dumb bastard was too lazy
to fill it up with gas, wash it or even check the oil. He crashed that new
car, had it repaired and later sold the car, all within 3 months.
