RE: [DML] VIN SCEDT26TODD020064

 Howdy,

As 2nd owner of one of the '83 Canadian DMC's (VIN 17106) 

I was told that the 17xxx series was intended for the Canadian market and
the 20xxx series was built for overseas, both intended production runs,
which means that they got first crack at the parts bins, implying they more
likely have 'correct' colour interiors then their '83 "American" siblings.

Additionally, at least mine, has the straight smaller exhaust pipes, but
the hood is flat, with the DeLorean badge in the front right corner

As for the "Canadianness" of this car ... I don't think so, since they say
9,100 MILES and the Canadian model cars (or at least mine) have the gauges
in metric, i.e. speedo in Kilometers... 

Of course these are just my observations, and I could be wrong.

Mike
VIN 17106

Maybe its just me, but that car seems to be an '81, not an '83. The vin is 
correct for an '83, but it has the smaller exhaust pipes like the earlier 
cars and has all gray interior instead of two-tone. Additionally, it appears

that the hood has lines in it-like an '81. I guess all of this could have 
been changed or updated, but it says it is a low-milage car. I would worry 
that the pictures are not of the car that is for sale.
