[DML] Delorean reference on MotorWeek, PBS

Motorweek started in 1981 and just had a 25th anniversary episode.
They mentioned the D only to rip on it, of course. Specifically,
that it was better as a car in BTTF than as a car in reality. For
some reason they also preceded that bit by mentioning the Bricklin.
About that they said it "answered a question nobody asked" as they
showed it during crash testing. I'm not sure why they would even
mention the Bricklin, as it would have been years out of production
by the time Motorweek came around.
Here's a return rip: I rarely watch Motorweek but I got pulled into
this episode because I knew a reference to the D had to be
forthcoming. I think my main gripe with the show is that they seem
to take exciting things and make them less exciting, and its a rare
talent that can do that. (A new oil strainer featured on "Goss's
Garage" or maybe some paltry motor news from whoever the producer
is dating this year.) They had an annoying kid who's a new test
driver exhort everyone to tighten their lug nuts when they do some
test driving. Thanks, MotorWeek!
