I'm on my second Delorean so I obviously like the car, feel it't very innovative and give the credit to John Delorean for creating such a unique car. That said, I feel that special recognitiion should be reserved for those that live their life and conducted their business in a that deserves the acolades. . . those that not only are creative and ambitious but live their live in a moral, ethical manner, that is, in a manner that you would want to be treated by someone you dealt with personally. My comments which follow will get the ire of those who hold JZD in some superhuman status that in my opinion he does not deserve. Sure, he designed a very innovative car. Sure, he had the ambition to make the car a reality. He also led a lot of suppliers down a path that led them into bankrupcy or business failure. He made promises he knew he could not keep. He took advantage of honest, trusting individuals to get them to continue to invest development funds (i.e., the turbo debacle) long after he knew he could not pay. He misled investors and employees in a manner that is reminicent of ENRON. How would you like it if you believed in someone, invested your life savings in their dream, only to find out they were using your money to live a jetset lifestyle? Do you find it OK for someone to take your life savings (or even your last paycheck) with a promise to repay when in reality they knew they never would be able to do so? Doesn't that make about as much sense as recognizing O.J. Simpson for his football accomplishments without recognizing the wrongful death judgment for murdering two people? Let's stay in the real world. Let's recognize the accomplishments associated with creating a new company to create a very innovative car (even withit's flaws). At the same time let's not put our head up our posterior when it comes to the flawed human traits that did conscious,avoidable, unjustifiable, irrepable harm to a lot of innocent, trusting individuals. I'm always open to new points of view so I welcome responses that are more than rationalizations of the acts of a creative, maniuplative, clever con man. And, lets not use the acquital on the drug charges to rationalize the ripoff of hundreds of suppliers. That's a logic jump reserved for those under 2 years of age.
