Re: [DML] DeLorean pricing

Scott,
I agree wholeheartedly with your opinion about the cost of a good 
Delorean. I bought mine for $9000 and have over the last six years 
spend $2000 on the car. With the exception of getting the wheels 
refinished,binnacle repairs, new rotors and getting my exhaust fixed, 
I am really done with my car. It is now a safe, dry weather only, 
show quality vehicle. The frame, I must admit could use a total 
revamping but splitting the car in half is not my idea of fun as a 
hobby mechanic. Lets see, that puts me at about $12,000. Not bad!! 
Would I want a $34,000 US Delorean. No thanks!! I'd buy a second one 
for $10,000 US anytime and still have extra money to restore it. 
Sorry, but there are more of us Delorean-do-it-yourselvers around 
than those swimming in cash and buying a $30+ car instead. The 
greatest enjoyment besides driving it, is actually fixing the car 
yourself if you have the brains and motivation how to.
That's wahat it is all about!!
