    Heard of the new DeLorean?

    http://www.torquenews.com/106/new-el...12-coming-2013

    I stumbled across this earlier today. thought i would see what y'all think. does anyone know anymore good info about this?

    i personally think it would be kinda neat to see happen, especially when people junked the electric motor and swapped in a turbo lsx

    Wish they wouldve modernized the look just a little... Seems like they wouldve been better off starting from scratch then using pretty much the same everything.

    They are kinda on the slow side, but thanks to back to the future they are cool as hell. It makes my 50 cars to own one day list. Not on the top 10 though.

    yea, i think its really just the cool factor that i like. and like kerrige said, back to the future is the only reason these could make a decent comeback i think.

    I had no idea they started building them again. I wanna know what they're using for an engine now, all the site says is an all aluminum V6.
