4,234 actual miles. I have seen and sold several of these with very
low miles. This is absolutely the cleanest one I've ever seen! We
acquired this as part of a 25 car collection from an estate. There
is an oil change sticker from Classic DeLorean Motor Car company in
Texas. This car was at their shop, I'm assuming that's why the car
is in such excellent condition. They probably went through the car.
This is the sportier manual 5-speed version. The Delorean is more
than just a car! It's a conversation piece with Hollywood stardom
and an intriguing history. They are wildly unique; no other car is
even similar. Only built 3 years but they represent an era. Made
famous by the Back to the Future movies where a Delorean was used
as a time machine.
They even have a scandal attached to their name. GM executive John
Delorean was caught in a big cocaine deal while desperately trying
to raise money to keep his company from going under. More than just
a car, it's a cultural icon!
EXTERIOR: It is immediately recognizable by its brushed stainless
steel body panels and the gullwing doors. The stainless is in
excellent shape I didn't see any scratches or damage. The brushed
finish is uniform. The rubber bumpers are also in excellent shape:
no cracks, damage or fading. They're painted smooth and glossy. The
lightly smoked glass is crystal clear. The gullwing doors open
easily and stay open, most of them fall back down. The rear louvers
also stay up. It has its original staggered size alloy wheels: 14s
in front, 15s and back. The tires have been replaced.
INTERIOR: The interiors were available in either gray or black.
Obviously, this one's gray and it is practically brand new
condition. There's no cracking in the plastic, no splits or wear.
Even the carpets are clean. Genuine leather on the seats and door
panels is mint. All the knobs, vents, switches and even the
original radio still look like new. It has the owner's manual in
the glove box. The headliners are even mint, they are typically
drooping down.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: DeLorean used 2.85 L V-6 Volvo motors with a
Bosch fuel injection system. This engine compartment and the
components look as clean as I've ever seen! Everything looks
proper, not modified or messed up. It has air conditioning.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: It is also mint; it looks like it's never been
used. The original spare under the carpet has never been out. The
light works.
UNDERSIDE: It is exceptionally clean underneath; it even has the
assembly line markings still showing. The belly pan looks like new,
there's no damage or scrapes. These have a four wheel independent
suspension, rack & pinion steering and disc brakes at all four
wheels.
SERVICE: We inspected the car and repaired the fuel gauge.
It's a car! It's a Hollywood star! It's totally 80s! The Delorean
has become one of the most iconic cars in history. This is one of
the best examples that exist!
I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for
virtually every car for about the last 30 years now. A significant
amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my
professional impression of the vehicle. Our salesmen are happy to
assist with descriptions and making sure your questions are
answered. One great suggestion is letting us do a walk around video
that explains the car's condition in detail. **These cars are
displayed in a museum. If interested in a particular car, make an
appointment with a salesman to see that car. Without an appointment
there is an admission fee to enter the showroom. If you buy a car,
your admission will be refunded, and you will be given a 1 year
membership.
