Back in the 80s I saw a new DeLorean showcased on the local GM lot. It’s hard to describe how impressive and radical it was sitting next to a Chevrolet of that era. In hindsight its just another car that gets old. It wouldn’t muster near as much attention today design-wise but at the time it was a spacecraft next to everything else. It was like something out of a comic book. One of those things where you just had to be there. In that vein, at least in terms of being way ahead of its time in regards to design, I think the point was well made.

LOL. Was a "cool" looking car but ultimately a piece of crap. Have a friend who had one. It weighed a million pounds, leaked like crazy due to the doors and the engine was way under powered. But....if we're talking the one from "Back to the Future" well then....rock on!
