    "Against all expectations—and possibly common sense—the DeLorean is back in limited production."

    Not on my shortlist, but then, they brought back the Studebaker Avanti successfully.

    Just as long as they don't bring back the Bricklin.:-)

    Good. That leaves "more better" cars for me!

    Well, if anyone really wants an American V6 with its engine in an exotic place, I'd rather go for 1988 Fiero GT. Like so much of GM's stuff - so close, and yet so far...

    But I won't buy a DeLorean unless it comes with its optional 1.21 gigawatt electrical backpack.

    Actually Dave, the Delorean has the Peugot-Renault-Volvo V6. I have to agree that there are a lot of other cars I would rather add to my collection. Interesting story, though.

    Newish article, but old news... they've been building 'new' Deloreans in TX for a few years now.

    That would be a tasty car with a real V6 in it; say an Ecoboost 3.5 liter Ford

    The answer is 288. No joke.

    Shouldn't the Cartels be making this car in Columbia rather than in Texas?
