It’s no coincidence that this video was recommended to me after I just watched Back to the Future yesterday... Google is always listening

I’m just here to see if anyone made the “what happens when it hits 88 mph” comment.

Deloreans are really rare and really loved here in italy, really expensive as well sadly. Last year we where at a nice car convention, tons of supercars, a chiron and yet when the delorean passed by was the only thing that everybody was watching! I had never seen one driving before, or since.

Beautiful Car. It looks like a Masterpiece. John DeLorean had more determination that anyone that I have ever read about. Pure genius.
-
A good, honest, no BS video about the DeLorean showcased in positive light. Love it. Thanks for sharing.

Hope you guys enjoy getting up close and personal with a DeLorean!

I owned an 81 Delorean 5 speed for 13 years, great car, fun to drive, and easy to get parts for and work on!!

I've been around DeLoreans most of my life. I wanted to say thank you for actually shinning some truth on some of these myths. They are truly amazing cars and people like us can help show people the truth. We go day by day hearing the same false things people that believe are true. One of the best cars on the road. Live the dream!

This my friends is what we call "Rolling Art".. Simply beautiful and still stylish even today. Thanks for sharing. 🙏

Oh my god I want one of these so badly. I’m working my ass off doing anything I can to make money during the lockdown and am trying to get any automotive apprenticeship to make money towards one of these

Giugiaro knocked it out of the park with the Delorean, just a classic look that doesn't age.

It’s such a neat car even disregarding the pop culture meaning. It always reminds me of the Bricklin SV-1. The weird material, the gullwing doors, the futuristic design, the one-off production, the weird history and ethos, all of it :)

6:12 that is the flux-capacitor-empty warning beep

It's in my mind one of the most cyberpunk cars you could ever buy and for that reason I love it.

"I use to daily drive one in college." Me: jealous af

I have one of your shift knobs on my car, VIN 10365. I bought it from you at the Memphis DCS. I bought the smooth spherical polished stainless shift knob from your vendor table.

Great car Casey,you are right about the equipment being dumped in the Irish Sea when the factory was being liquidated. My cousin worked for the British government in Belfast at the time and told me that same story. Keep up the good work 👍🇮🇪

I love the DeLorean! Such a fun car, of course Back to the Future was my exposure and any time I see one with a time machine conversion it just makes me smile. Last time I was at the Petersen they had a Hollywood movie car display with one and it was great seeing it there. The best for me though is in the small town that I live in we have a Town Square with a "clock tower" and there is a DeLorean in town and every once in a while I find it parked in front of our clock tower and it's just priceless to see.

Wow ... that brought back some memories! In 1981 I autocrossed a Delorean supplied to me by Dunhill Cigarettes for a series championship. Did ok ... class wins, but not competitive for the series overall. Being an early car there were quality control build issues ... running too hot, fitment body/interior things like that and the dealer took care of them. Once you get your head around the fact it's a boulevard cruiser they were a pretty decent piece ... more of a cruiser/GT. As an autocross car it had some serious quirks ... snapping between heavy understeer to heavy oversteer .... had to drive the wheels off it to be competitive ... best bet was to carry speed in the corners an pitch it into a balanced drift while keeping rpm in top end of the range ... but again not really what it was meant for. As an unusual driver, touring or GT piece ... with the bugs sorted (as they well should be nearly 20 years later) it would be a nice piece. Thanks for the memories ... been a very long time since I thought of the "81" season.

The cover over the switches is called a mattaligner. Used to prevent accidentally resting your arm on the switches and overheating them. - a delorean owner
