1981 De Lorean DMC-12
A stainless-steel body, gull-wing doors and rear-engine make the De Lorean easy to recognize. But high prices, quality-control issues and a severe lack of power made this sports car a flop with drivers. If not for a cameo as a time machine on wheels in the movie “Back to the Future,” the De Lorean would be long forgotten.
They’re starting to make these things in Houston again. They also have a Lego set.
I can just imagine a custom version of this with paint, spoiler, the works. that would be officially awesome.
I have one in metallic burgundy.
Imagine opening the door with someone standing next to you!
why is it one of the worst cars? I would want a car that time travels!
Reply: ಠ_ಠ are you serious?
dose not belong on this list
awesome!
forgetting the engine and everything, the stainless steel body was the only problem. i mean if it gets a couple scratches and a little dirt, it’s really noticeable. but i don’t mean to dis on the car. i love it
stainless beauty
It’s from Back to the Future
o, Did you even read the description?
That is one cool automobile!
luuuuuvvvvvvvvvvvv it!
For that to have butterfly doors, that is pretty cool.
no comment
ya Know, in 35 years it will be an expensive collectors car!
the delorean already is a collector’s car!
Indeed.
i saw 2 of those in movies back to the futre and merry cristmas drake + josh [crazy steve had 1]
COOL!
Nice flapping doors, but all the crashes…
i love the car the movie everything i don’t care how much i want one
Hey “bboy”, they still make them in Houston, TX. You can buy a used one for $20,000-$30,000. But a brand new one would cost around $40,000. Y’all start savin’ up your pennies!
Who would buy that thing!?! They would be out-of-there-minds (buy I have to admit, it looks cool)!
i think they make new ones because of a huge warehouse full of original UN-used parts
I’m really surprised by that! I love that car!
It may not have been a good car in real life, but Marty sure could make that thing fly!!!
go marty go
i luv that car
that car is just plain awesome.hands down, if it was still made I would buy it in a flash
The De Lorean is on of the coolest cars ever! Someday I am going to owen one!
Boyslife Fan how are you planning to get a 1981 De Lorean DMC-12 if they don’t make them anymore.
I MEANT THAT COMMENT TO SKINNY WILLY
It was an awesome car and deservs to stil be made.
that looks like the time machine from “back to the future”!
what a ugly and poor car
Is that a reference to Drake & Josh?
its a lambo for amareca
This is Ordeps Car.
I’ve seen two De Lorean’s in person (both replicas of the Back to the Future car) near my house in Burbank. They’re actually way cooler in person and when they’re fitted with all the accessories from the movie.
Looks like the car from Back To The Future.
You’re obviously blind. Did you read the caption???????
It IS the car from BTTF.
Without the time machine.
thats what i said!
I don’t care if it was a Stainless Steel deathtrap, I want one!
All you gotta do is hit 88 miles an hour!
Not to mention what happens when u park next 2 another car and open one of those doors.
You actually need less space to open the doors, only nine inches.
You people are haters. Even though this thing can’t be parked next to any car, it still is pretty awesome!
your a hater of good cars
cool car but it had problems
looks old
piece of junk! just buy a Lamborghini with the same raising doors but waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more cooler
I’m with you man.
me too
I disagree. I think it looks awesome and classic.
there is a company that makes new ones from spare parts
it’s kind of cool that they have a warehouse of UN-used parts
MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANT!
this is so ugly!
Totally do not agree.
Gee whiz! Am I the only one who read the darned caption?????????
Nope.
i read it
Why is this on the worst cars list?
mw too
AWESOME CAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!But why did they stop making it?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
I know, its so amazing
Simple, they ran out of money.
‘Cause it was awful!
They didnt run out of money!!! The guy that owned the company was transporting illegall things in them and passed away in prison.
