I remember the first time I ever saw DeLorean at a cars and coffee event. It had the sports almanac from Back to the future, flux capacitor-the whole nine yards. I don't remember the experience because I was too excited. I learned that can happen.
Funny story. My co-worker had one of these a while back. Basically a daily driver. Our boss had just gotten a brand new BMW M6. We all went bowling for a company event, M6 and Delo parked next to each other. After a few sets, we step outside to smoke a cigarette. Just then, a group of kids start pointing at the cars, gawking and hollering. They walk up, breeze straight by the M6 and surround the Delorean, taking pictures and really taking pleasure in seeing the thing. They could not have cared less about the shiny new BMW. The look on my boss's face was priceless. A Delorean is pretty much an attention grabber no matter what it's parked next to. Can't say that about many cars.
@jbiehlable really sad when you know the full back story we could possibly even have deloreans today outside of that single certified mechanic redoing them for a little over 100k but that doesnt count even if its set up better with a powder coat and double the horsepower still not worth it
I owned a 1981 DeLorean with a 5-speed for a few years. It was my dream car as a kid, thanks of course to Back to the Future. But I can definitely identify with the "meeting your hero" comments in the video...my expectations for the DeLorean were brought down once I actually owned one. It's slow, heavy, drives poorly and constantly requires maintenance. Lots of little annoying things tend to fail on these cars. But it looks beautiful inside and out, and turns heads like absolutely nothing else on the road. I could park my car next to a new Ferrari at a car show, and people would pay more attention to the DeLorean. Ultimately it was worth owning for a while, just to say that I owned my dream car at one point.
Your car must needed a lot of work because I have 82 that I restored myself and I daily Drive mine and I have reached 1500 miles a month and I have zero maintenance issues with my car other than standard oil changes. Depending on who did the work on your car this car does not require constant maintenance so I have to say that is untrue about your comment
@@silverwings11035 really depends on alot of things lets say these cars werent known to be flawless coming off the factory line alot of electrical issues if i remember correctly are common and the v6 is choked by all the emissions equipment and crap parts stuck on it which is sad because if i remember correctly that same v6 was used in a alpine rally car though i cant blame people for thinking its fast since the sound clip from the movie was taken off a v8 race engine
The year is 2139 and humanity has rebuilt itself into a new era of efficency and speed. Silver spires go miles high, our food is grown vertically, and the world can be traversed in mere minuets. And long after the chevys and toyotas of the day have been recycled into electrical cables, there will still be that gearhead polshing the stainless steel panels and attaching a turbo to an engine that can barely power itself. For even with its flaws and failures, he shall restrore the delorean once again and take it onto the last of the non-autonomous roads. And all the people with their augmented vision will stop their day for just a moment and look, and see a machine, a scuplture, that is timeless and will last far longer than any of us.
In Belfast, Northern Ireland, we built the DeLorean about the same way we built the Titanic......just joking. The Titanic was built just fine....but the DeLorean?? Our excuse here in Belfast in 1981 was, "it's our first day". We had never built a car before....and haven't since.
The owner of that car is just awesome for actually driving his car. Most people would have a heart attack about driving their DMC when there is snow out in PA with all the salt on the roads, glad to see a owner who actually drives their car.
This is why I love RCR. Watch any other review of the DMC-12 and they'll spend the entirety of the review talking about how its handling and acceleration don't deliver the supercar promise that its RR layout makes. Instead Mr. Regular spends 8 minutes talking about the idiosyncrasies of the car like how the doors close or the green indicator for low beams or the horn button being in a weird place or the people at car shows that want to molest the DeLorean and only the DeLorean. These are things I would never know about the DMC-12 unless I bought one. This is why I watch RCR.
I've owned and restored two Delorean's. They are built buy 20 year old Irish men. The doors never line up perfectly. I will get another one. People at car shows would always ask..... why a delorean!? My reply was do you see all the 67 mustangs and 32 fords? They say yes! Look at how many people are around my DMC12 and look at the people around there's! I've only had the 5 speed. The PRV v6 needs all the grunt it can get! It's held to a sports car standard like lambo or ferrari but it's really in a class of its own! They are a pleasure to drive and YES THE BACK TO THE FUTURE JOKES GET VERY VERY OLD!
Just make sure your mechanically inclined and have some tools! If the water pump goes out and you call your local mechanic and say I need a DeLorean fixed..... he's either going to charge you way to much or not work on it at all. They are easy to work on.... parts are super easy to find. It's just so Volvo 2.8 v6. Oil filters fuel filters spark plugs all that stuff is at any part store.
I ported the heads and intake manifold. Did hot wires and a cold air intake. Custom exhaust. Cut the cat. And I put 173whp on the dyno. Lol but the car only weighed 2,400 lbs.
Your better off just buying a used one. God they are all over for sale. People think they are so rare but really they aren't. I bet there is 5 for sale on ebay right now.
Who noticed the little Enterprise NCC-1701-D hanging from the mirror? Both it, and the Delorean Time machine from BTTF were designed by the same guy, Andrew Probert.
Yeah, Its kinda like if your on a country road and you have your high beams on you know they're on. This is handy if theres a car coming the other way you can turn the high beams off so you dont blind them basically
Yeah... every single (British/ EU market) car I've ever driven (bar my Corvette) has this feature. So much so that I was kind of surprised to see it remarked upon here. Weird...
DeLorean was able to successfully defend himself at trial under the procedural defense of police entrapment. The trial ended in a not guilty verdict in August 1984, by which time DMC had declared bankruptcy and shut down.
Most people in my generation don't know how great back to the future is I'm 15 and been watching it since I was little and I'm glad you felt the same way I still do
"Is it possible to feel nostalgia for something you've never experienced" THIS more importantly than the humor is why I watch Regular Cars' videos. They are so perfectly atmospheric and just tear at my heart. So powerful the way he puts these videos together, great work Mr. Regular.
The Delorean green headlight indicator was ahead of it's time, all newer cars have this indicator to let you know your headlights are on, this is in part due to a lot of cars illuminating the dash even with the headlamps off and not having any physical indicator
Somehow the DeLorean and the AMC Pacer belong together. The DeLorean....LOOKED SO COOL. The stainless steel body was brilliant and timeless. Too bad they never put a decent motor in it.
Me DotOrg i’m glad they motor is small only because the car is overall not very expensive and as a young driver, the smaller engine means a cheaper insurance rate while having a car fast enough to reach all speed limits but nothing too crazy.
@@xeric1953 umm idk where you live but a delorean in good condition around me i would be lucky to get one for around 30k bare minimum unless its a beat up shell and even then its still gonna hurt your wallet because if you seriously know a place that would be aweseome i mean hell the car even has my initials on it so its practically asking to be my first car
@@dr.dylansgame5583 30-80k is fine with me if the condition is good.. I payed 46k for mine in april but it's fully fixed up and has an engine swap. I'm only 26 tho so a 2 seater is high insurance for a new driver.. something like $300 a month. Worth it for this beautiful car tho.
@@xeric1953 i wanted to modify one to be a five seater since i know its possible also to help with insurance costs however considering outside of nostalgia the car simply isnt worth that much to me only because i could just get a cooler faster more reliable and practical car i get that its a icon but none the less it still doesnt justify going that far for me
Doors slouch like that for one of two reasons. In this video, it's due to ambient temperature. Gas struts are less compressed when they're cold, less powerful. The other reason is a torsion bar that needs adjustment. It's like a spring that loses it's tension over the years. Just needs a quick adjustment. Properly adjusted, the doors swing up briskly and the gas strut slows its ascent from bouncing at its peak.
Brilliant TH-cam clip! I know that feeling when you getting in one for the first Time! Every BTTF that Doc ever says comes in to your mind instantly! You can’t help but try to get up 88mph in hope the lighten effect starts to happen like in the film!
I've watched Bullrun, 32:07, Gumball, Cannonball, Top Gear, Final Gear, Driver, Driven, Car and Driver, Muff Diver, AND MacGyver, but THIS.......THIS is car video PERFECTION. This......this "video" is all of those PLUS back to the future PLUS Army Of Darkness....I think. My life is complete. Thank you.
I love your videos. I kept getting distracted thinking that there was something oddly familiar about this vid. I then realized this was shot in my home town. Longs Park in Lancaster, Pa. This is where I took my date, in a dodge neon...a candidate for a car review.
I'll second the not really, considering the doors didn't work out of the factory. Did anything really work on that car, besides swindling taxpayer money? A review of a Bricklin would be priceless though!
Great find, thanks for the review and thanks to the owner! Definitely a good childhood memory. I remember seeing an automatic in a car dealer in Calgary, Canada where I grew up, and it had a personalized Alberta license plate that said "FUTURE." Oh the days before phone cameras.
There's a company in Texas that bought all of DMC's inventory, and they're either planning on or already are building new DeLorean's out of original parts.
There's a whole lot of Volvo 264 in this thing! Not identical details but obviously similar in the overall interior styling feeling... Turbine wheels, check. Gauges are slightly off but obviously related. Plastics and knobs look related too...
DeLorean Motor Company in north Houston is rebuilding these...I saw more lined up in their parking lot in 2018 than I'd ever seen in my life. I got to sit in one. I bought a t-shirt. It was awesome.
I remember the first time seeing one was 10 years ago on the expressway at one of the tolls. I thought it was the coolest thing ever even though I didn't know anything about it. Then I found out and this car has introduced me to Back to the Future. It's still very exciting to see whenever I come across one.
I recently discovered that DMC (the new one that bought out all the unused parts) is less than an hour's drive away from me. There's something beautiful about seeing a dozen or so DeLoreans all parked in a row. Someday I hope to be able to walk out of that building with a set of keys.
maybe a bit late, but i found your channel a couple a days ago and is awesome Now the importan, Deloran will be remade ( like the original ) in 2017, is official. Regards!
No, most cars have that have a green light are for either indicating the Daytime Running Lights, or Fog Lights are on. There are also green indicated for automatic headlights and high beam assist. These icons all look similar to but are not the same as a low beam symbol.
When I was a child I was once at this summer camp thing at my church's gymnasium. in one of the side rooms they had a box of legos, most of them were hinges and I liked playing with legos so that gave me an idea. I was going to make my very own small DeLorean. So I made it and it turned out awesome with working doors and everything, it was my magnum opus. So then I went out swimming at the local community pool with all the other children roped into this lackluster camp. Lo and behold when I return to find my hopes and dreams shattered remains scattered across the table. I never went back to that "camp" again.
So I've been binging on your channel today, and honestly you're just killing it with these reviews. Still have to say that my favorite part in this was the driver's seat being low, like the Maxell guy. I don't know why, but that was fucking hilarious
I was fortunate enough to drive one of these a few years back. Sure, it's performance is severely lacking but driving it puts a huge smile on your face.
I remember the first time I ever saw DeLorean at a cars and coffee event.

Doors slouch like that for one of two reasons. In this video, it's due to ambient temperature. Gas struts are less compressed when they're cold, less powerful.
The other reason is a torsion bar that needs adjustment. It's like a spring that loses it's tension over the years. Just needs a quick adjustment. Properly adjusted, the doors swing up briskly and the gas strut slows its ascent from bouncing at its peak.

Good review man, such a classic car. I've only seen a few in real life.
For some reason the design of the DeLorean is truly timeless. That's a car that will look modern for the next 1000 years.
its like it has no place in time like its like its futuristic and not at the same time
its looks 80s as fuck

Nice Toyota Echo with the 2 door at the beginning. Is that a 2000 model?
2002
So glad that this beauty is coming back this year
marty we have to go back
Back to 0:00 !
DeLorean Motor Company in north Houston is rebuilding these...I saw more lined up in their parking lot in 2018 than I'd ever seen in my life. I got to sit in one. I bought a t-shirt. It was awesome.
Did anyone else notice the NCC-1701-D Enterprise hanging from the rearview?
Yes. It made me happy.
The day I see, touch , sit in, and drive a Delorean is the day my life is complete
What the heck was that beginning
The port and starboard lighting on the doors is an interesting touch.
"Can you feel nostalgia for something you never experienced?"
You mean like the Rhodesian bush wars?
I love the red and green lights on the doors when they are open. Like a boat's lights.
i lost it at the SIN SWORD hahahahahaha OMG this guy is funny
I remember the first time seeing one was 10 years ago on the expressway at one of the tolls. I thought it was the coolest thing ever even though I didn't know anything about it. Then I found out and this car has introduced me to Back to the Future. It's still very exciting to see whenever I come across one.
wondered if it was Matt Farahs....saw Auto...knew it wasn't :/
I recently discovered that DMC (the new one that bought out all the unused parts) is less than an hour's drive away from me. There's something beautiful about seeing a dozen or so DeLoreans all parked in a row. Someday I hope to be able to walk out of that building with a set of keys.
i laughed my ass off at the touch part
I drove a DeLorean on my birthday. And I had exactly the same feelings. Orrrrrgh, the dooooooooooorgh! :D
lmao I lost it at "sin sword"
maybe a bit late, but i found your channel a couple a days ago and is awesome
Now the importan, Deloran will be remade ( like the original ) in 2017, is official.
Regards!
Not to be a dick or anything, but don't most cars have that green light for your low beams?
No...
No
All my cars have a green light. Dunno.
No, most cars have that have a green light are for either indicating the Daytime Running Lights, or Fog Lights are on. There are also green indicated for automatic headlights and high beam assist. These icons all look similar to but are not the same as a low beam symbol.
hanyoukimura must be 'merica then, cause my 3cars all have the lowbeam light
When I was a child I was once at this summer camp thing at my church's gymnasium. in one of the side rooms they had a box of legos, most of them were hinges and I liked playing with legos so that gave me an idea. I was going to make my very own small DeLorean. So I made it and it turned out awesome with working doors and everything, it was my magnum opus. So then I went out swimming at the local community pool with all the other children roped into this lackluster camp. Lo and behold when I return to find my hopes and dreams shattered remains scattered across the table. I never went back to that "camp" again.
so friggen jealous!
So I've been binging on your channel today, and honestly you're just killing it with these reviews. Still have to say that my favorite part in this was the driver's seat being low, like the Maxell guy. I don't know why, but that was fucking hilarious
This car is badass. Fuck all the Bentleys, Ferraris, Porsches,Maserattis, Bugattis, Lambos (okay maybe not Lambos). DMC-12 ftw
I greatly appreciate this guy's sense of humor
a 4-speed auto? i thought they came in 5-speed manual and 3-speed auto
I was fortunate enough to drive one of these a few years back. Sure, it's performance is severely lacking but driving it puts a huge smile on your face.
I think this guy just likes to hear himself talk.
Zach Haywood You must be new here
And so do i. (Like to hear him talk)
my friends grandpa has one and he will drive me around in it sometimes. it never gets old.
