Iconic 1981 DeLorean DMC-12 5-Speed with 32k MilesThis 1981
DeLorean DMC-12 5-speed is a remarkably well-preserved example,
showing just 32k miles from new. Finished in polished stainless
steel over a gray leather interior, it features the highly
desirable 5-speed manual transmission. A two owner car from new,
just out of 20 year ownership. It requires straightforward
mechanical recomissioning as it's been off the road for the last 10
years and is not currently running. It remains exceptionally
straight and original. The DeLorean DMC-12 has achieved cult status
over the years, celebrated for its distinctive stainless steel
body, dramatic gullwing doors, and lasting place in 1980s pop
culture. This particular example is well-equipped, offering leather
upholstery, power windows, and air conditioning for added comfort.
Power comes from a 2.9-liter PRV V6 engine, producing 130
horsepower and 166 lb-ft of torque, delivered to the rear wheels
through a 5-speed manual gearbox.As the sole production model from
the short-lived DeLorean Motor Company, founded by former General
Motors executive John Z. DeLorean, the DMC-12 stands apart with its
unique engineering and design. Notable features include its brushed
stainless steel panels, rear-mounted engine, and unmistakable
styling. Its starring role in the Back to the Future films helped
cement its legacy and ensured its place in automotive history. 32k
