Had lunch with John DeLorean today. To confirm, he is still trying to come out with another car, but his interests are quite diversified and he is getting involved with a number of ventures. Still, as those of you who met him here in Cleveland in June, he is still a dynamic fellow at 75 and with the bankruptcy off his back...who knows what kind of ventures he might be involved in and will make a valuable contribution to.

Delorean should give us more info because a 3,000 dollar investment is a little much when we know little about the car and have no gurantee it will even come out. > > Think though, if it did, the effects it would have! What if it becomes a very popular top selling car? Original deloreans could go up in value yet at the same time if the new delorean really is 20,000 and really does go from 0-60 in 3.6 seconds and keeps the greatness of the original delorean, who(buying a car for a daily driver) would buy the original delorean at the same price with still problems having to do with a 20 year old car. > > Personally, if the new delorean does come out and I haven't purchased an older delorean(very unlikely), I would seriously consider the new car. But, sometimes its hard to keep the same style as the original and I know John Delorean wasn't happy with the original(after his original ideas were taken away by lotus) so how do we know how DMC2 will turn out? > > Hmm, what if it ends up like the sequal to back to the future?(although I liked it, the reviewers didn't take to it well, of course the reviewers didn't take well to the original delorean either) > > Anyways, I'm very excited > > > [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] > > > > Before posting messages or replies, see the posting policy rules at: > www.dmcnews.com/Admin/rules.html > > To address comments privately to the moderating team, please address: > moderator@xxxx
