Hello fellow DMC enthusiasts!

["dmc_dream <dmhmail@xxxx>" <dmhmail@xxxx>]

OK! I've joined the list. Now all I need is a DeLorean :-)

I have loved this car ever since I first saw it. I even got to ride in one, which 
just sealed it for me. 

It's a dream of mine to actually own a DeLorean, but my passion and practical 
side are feuding over the decision. So, maybe you guys can help me out. My 
practical side wants to know:

1) What's a reasonable price for a DeLorean in "good" condition? I'm not 
looking for a showroom model, I'd like a reliable daily driver.

2) Does it require more maintenance than any other '81-'83 model car?

3) Does the value of the car depreciate or appreciate, given it's 'classic' status 
now?

4) Is financing easily available for such a unique vehicle? 


My passion side wants to know:

1) How fast can it go?

2) Does owning a DeLorean make everything else in life hum-drum?

3) Do dreams really come true?


Thanks!

Mathew H.
