interesting. I say go for it if the car is as much as a used civic, but if it's gonna cost more than new civic, screw it. Although I think it would be sicc to rock one with some fat ass lips on some fat ass rims, wouldn't be worth it in my opinion. I say go look for a really cheap/broken one, do a V8 swap or something and then turbo it.

my point exactly, i hope to either look at it this week or get it by this weekend, its going for more then i'd really want to pay for any car normaly but for some reason everyone is under the empression that there cheap as hell to buy :S

almost anything is going to be more then a used civic, those are a dime a dozen, the delorean was only produced for 2-3 years so its a tiny bit more rare then a civic... approximetly 6,000 of them are supposed to still be kicking from what i can find in two seconds of googleing, lol, and im sure several of them ended up in a scrap yard or as parts cars so that number may be less
