The only draw back is that she sips as if the bar is only open for another 30 mins though.

So he’s admitting the 4-door coupe thing is dumb?

Eh, I’d rather a 200 than an Accord (if you put a gun to my head).

Ayy

Fiat Chrysler also plans to let the current Chrysler 200 compact sedan, which is hated by Chrysler itself, and the Dodge Dart “run their course” before turning to a partnership for development of the next generation models or replacements. It has been speculated that Mitsubishi would be a prime candidate as Fiat…

Also, for the record, DMC WILL sell you a 197 bhp PRV (they call it the ‘Stage II’). They were working on a ‘Stage III’ variant (I saw pics of the test car from a show in 2004), but I haven’t seen anything about it since like 2006.

The new DeLorean will have bigger wheels, bigger brakes, and shocks from “a famous German supplier.”

Any issues with oil consumption/burning? VQs are supposedly bad for it. I’ve got a VQ30 and it doesn’t burn oil so much as it leaks it, but I haven’t had anything with the 35 or 37.

The original concept called for a stainless steel backbone. This was changed to epoxy dipped steel after it was discovered that no way of cost effectively producing a stainless steel backbone was available at the time. There was/is a place selling stainless steel backbones (PJ Grady’s) but my (admittedly somewhat…

They were working on a TT PRV with about 250 bhp when the company folded.

I know, I’ve got that site bookmarked.

Is that engine still built?

I’m well aware of that.

Proof? I know Nissan is gonna need somewhere to offload some VQ37s, as Infiniti is starting to phase it out.

Considering they might employ the retard aaronm_mt, this is about par for the course.

IIRC the 5MT the DeLorean used was made by ZF, so securing a 6MT that was designed for Porsches might not be too hard. I THINK they hold up okay.

I really hope they have replacements for the Dart and 200 on the drawing board. Putting all their eggs in one basket isn’t a smart business plan, even if that basket seems to have something every one wants.

New engine will likely be a V6 of some sort. Doubt it'll be an LS; chassis mods might be required with that much power.

If they call it the X-class, does that mean they’ll sign a marketing deal with Marvel for the X-men actors to promote it?

1st gear: Womp womp indeed.
2nd gear: Not surprising.
3rd gear: Wonder how that’ll go over.
4th gear: I thought Bosch had already said that while they DID supply VW with the cheating software, they had told them multiple times ‘this is just for testing purposes, don’t put it in production cars’.
5th gear: Because thinking…
