OCNCS had a gallery of DeLoreans at the entrance to the show, including a mauve one, and another trimmed with purple accents (inside and out).  Maybe about 16 total, a third customized somehow.  IIRC, only one was hotrodded.

Over in Brookfield (5 miles away) in the early summer they have a car show. Back in '86, after the first Back to the Future movie was out, some organization brought in one of the movie DeLoreans. Mr. Fusion and all.
For a fee, one could have their picture taken sitting inside the car with the door up. I didn't do the picture thing, but seeing the car from what was then one of the hottest movies was a neat thing to a 9 year old kid :D

So I can say I've seen a DeLorean in person...touched it even.

I think they're cool...I'd love to have one. Have to build a house around it, and use it for a conversation piece. I sure as hell would never drive it, lol.

Took mine for a rip back to the week I was born last night...  was really neat  holding myself as a new born....:hick:

my buddies uncle has one, last time I looked at it last year it had less then 3000 original miles on it..  it has never been on the road, and has only racked up those miles driving from the trailer to the car show spot, then back the the trailer, then into the grage at home....  NUTS!!!
