DML, There are several cars that are driven as daily drivers. I drove an Automatic DeLorean everyday when I was in college. Great car! In addition, the DeLorean World magazine has several members across the country documenting that their DeLorean has passed the 100,000 200,000 and 500,000 mile mark. Based on the information I have, the cars are regularly maintained with correct DeLorean parts. Additionally, they have the original DeLorean PRV V-6 engine. I drive my Automatic DeLorean everyday in good weather. However, I have been caught in the occasional rain storm. The car is wonderful to own and drive. I was just complimented by a very attractive women. She said, "Now that's a Car." She is correct. Nothing compares to the DeLorean, it is in a class of its own. I have the car serviced and updated by Rob Grady. All of the necessary and Preventive maintenance items have been addressed. I believe that is the way to go, have the car properly gone over by a qualified DeLorean specialist if you are in doubt of the reliability of the car. I feel confident that I can get in and go anywhere in the DeLorean. I wanted to match the reliability of my Acura TL. So far so good. BTW, My Acura was purchased new. I had to take the car back to the Acura dealership 3 times to fix the door locks. (Sound familiar?) Sincerely, Michael Pack VIN 3713 DOA 4743
