The Return of the DeLorean

[SuperShouden]

A premium Delorean is all i really want in this game right now.

Its funny how people always think its heavy

There's a "Premium" DeLorean in Forza 4.

I'd say "But I'll sell that Fusion". I don't like them and they feel like an appliance(Can't feel the wheels with that steering and too heavy).

This is awesome, and just proves that the original DeLorean was (is?) too much of a car to be kept down. I hope it actually come to fruition.

And all this proves that good things happen when people who possess money and eccentricity in equal quantities converge. We need more ideas like this!👍

Will the mid-cycle refresh in 2015 come with a Mr. Fusion?

Ford will sue them, big time.

Though the article makes it sound like all they will be doing is making BTTF replicas, that's not the case actually. Just the normal DMC-12 model I assume. Even then, this thread shows they attempted to do this in 2011 but are just now getting approval?

I wonder if these will be built with the stock of originally manufactured parts they have or whether entirely new parts will be made. Most of the internal parts are very commonly sourced ones from a range of EU auto manufacturers so those won't be much of an issue but I guess the chassis and bodies will have to be totally new. I know they have all the die's for the panels etc.

They have said this so many times I'm starting to get skeptical. Maybe with the anniversary of the film they wanted some free PR.

If they still trying to make the DeLorean an EV, i hope the car sound the same as BTTF DeLorean lol

 

[Robin]

I suspect the EV bit is nonsense. I think they will just make some new ones with exactly the same parts and that's it.

As long as they keep pushrod motors out of the car, I'm all for it. Hell, I'd rather see ecoboost 3-banger in there than any kind of pushrod V8.

The higher tuned EcoBoost triple is a great shout, actually. Lightweight and perfect for traveling forward to 2015!

Surprised no one brought this up; a little emotional trip to promote this "DMC Second Coming" was uploaded on YouTube earlier this month:


Nothing really new about the car is shown, but it's a nice little video to show respect for the one and only automotive Time Machine.

Am I the only one that's not excited about a new DeLorean? The original was a piece of cr@p
