Its all kinds of fail, and I'm guilty of looking at it through rose-tinted glasses, but you only need to look at what the new DMC is doing with these to see what potential they've got.

You're right, I'm just defending it. I guess I've idolised this thing to the point where I see what it should have been, rather than what it was. Thats why I love what these guys are doing:

Are you trolling for antipodeans? We take digs at our Monaro very seriously. This was a great looking car till Pontiac put that snout on it.

Colin Chapman had a hand in the chassis design, so it actually handled pretty well. Large parts of its design were innovative, but the execution was poor (one hydraulic strut to hold up the massive, heavy doors, for instance). Little things were overlooked, like the tiny windows and poor air-conditioning that…

Nope, it arrived! More DeLoreans = better.

Just came to post the same thing, but Nibblesed at the post.

Delorean DMC-12. A casualty of mismanagement, questionable engine choice and polarising design.

One of my mates swears black and blue that his Laguna Seca lap times on GT2 are better by up to 10s when he's out of his gourd compared to when he hasn't smoked. I have a suspicion that video game designers know their market so well that they are designed to be played while high. Possibly irrelevant, just thought I'd…

Aaah, the old "spliff 'n' skids". High school was fun. While at university, the MO was usually drive somewhere beautiful, then smoke a big spliff while admiring the sea/mountain/trees/sky/river/lake/zoo animals and talking rubbish, then driving home when we were done. We were usually fine by then, and a good time was…

I'm not saying its a good idea, just that for a lot of people tokeing and driving isn't a problem. I remember seeing tests like this done in New Zealand (admittedly, at home the pot is stronger, and more of us smoke it regularly) and the conclusion was that it wasn't detrimental to most people's abilities, in fact it…

Cheers mate. There are a lot of us out there, but this debate stirs up so many busy-bodies. Solidarity!

I'm not advocating driving under the influence of anything, but between the ages of 18 and 24, I did a large percentage of my driving stoned. Never had an accident or even came close. I did most of my open road driving with a spliff either in my hand or in the ash-tray. My only accident was when I was stone-cold sober…

$kay? $kay? I guess bikini clad models don't hang out near spy satellites that often.

So is communicating irony over the internet, apparently.

So, Sparks are driven by women who are obsessed with clothes and shopping, Sonics are driven by yobbos without a social concience, Impalas are driven by 50's style husbands who probably drink cocktails for breakfast, while Corvettes are bought by supercriminals, as that guy was clearly being chased by Batman. Good…

DeLorean DMC 12. Irishmen, Americans, big dreams, Lotus, PRV, drug money, dat shell, and of course, Hollywood.

Slow news day?

Its only a few years away! Honestly. Its been forty, you can wait a few more. We'll test it soon! Tethered flights went well. It'll be like driving a car! Please, can we have more money? But it'll work! Look, I'll send you some more press shots. I'll stand by it too! What if I put it in a movie with LeVar Burton?…

The lamps in most streetlights are also excellent for indoor grow boxes. Just the right type of light for sweet, sticky, dank......ummm......tomatoes....apparently.

VAG with a dash of 3-series thrown in. (dash, get it? The headlights too, but I couldn't turn that into a pun).
