    Hideous as fuck.

    The DeLorean from Back to the Future at least had some charm and creative design.

    This shit here just looks like what’d happen if you put the DeLorean into Blender and decimated the polys down to PS1 levels michael-laugh

    This shit box is just a tin toy coffin on wheels.

      The DeLorean from Back to the Future

      You know the DeLorean came before Back to the Future, right?

      DeLorean himself is basically what would happen if a guy tried to do what Musk did in the auto industry without being able to use a government carbon credit program to essentially get bankrolled by the rest of the auto industry. He pissed everyone off, delivered a subpar car that looked unique, then got busted for cocaine trafficking (though he was found not guilty by way of police entrapment) and went bankrupt.

      It’s a sick as hell car though, I would love a modern, electric version.

        I actually did not know this. Thanks for telling me. I never see any on the road so I wasn’t aware they were a thing before the movie.

        Agreed. It would be a treat.

          So I just learned after posting this that DMC is back and they’re literally making exactly that, but at $125K I guess I’ll just have to be satisfied with my Chevy Volt lmao.
