Crappy Delorean — My DeLorean is hard as hell to maintain. Pure 80s interior. The gullwing doors have trapped me once. It was scary. Very expensive to maintain. Slow V6, only 121 mph. OK handling. Good looking. Stainless Steel body panels suck eggs more than people Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) Pros: Cool Cons: Bad |

My Favorite Car That I've Driven To Date. — This car is not fast by any means but it is more fun then most cars for the simple fact that there are only 2 known in the state of Louisiana so bystanders look at you as you drive down the street. Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) Pros: Fun, gets alot of stares from people, and very comfy Cons: Parts are kind of expensive but not too bad. |

Ricky Vs Delorean — American as apple pie, but with a SWEDISH V6 engine??? No POWER BRAKES? No POWER STEERING? Ay ya yay! I feel for John Z. Delorean. This stainless steel car, complete with a frisbee sized "brillo pad" to polish her up is my 3rd Delorean & by far the WORST I ever owned. The doors wont stay up. Shocks for doors been in backorder for 3 months now. The engine? stalled. Alternator bad, fuel pump gone, water pump, HA HA HA leaking more than Niagara Falls. Gotta go BACK in time! Pros: Stainless Steel! Whooooaaa! Cons: Whoever told you Delorean dont rust, must be on crack... |
1982 DeLorean DMC-12 RWD Review
GuruVT9JK says:
owned a 1981. Problems from the get go. Undersized alternator. Front end floated at 60 mph. Pushbutton switches failed. Clutch problems. Slave cylinder replaced way to early. Parts expensive and hard to locate. Small roll down side windows were virtually useless. Looked good and garnered a lot of attention. Thats about all. vs1981 Alfa Romeo Spider Veloce RWD

1983 Dmc Dmc-12 Delorean Review By Justin
The only reason that I elected a 3 out of 5 for performance is because the engine is famous for being underpowered. The way I look at it is that if you are dating a supermodel, do you care how fast sh... Read More

Delorean, A Review. By Tristan
Car was ruined by regulation. bumper height, emissions, etc. so there isn't an impressive amount of power by any standards, to be fair though it did remind me of my old mk2 GTi, which isn't a bad thi... Read More
