So I was at work this past Monday and 5 people hit me up asking if I was at the Chick-Fila on Route 1 last Friday night in the D. Apparently they do some sort of car show there. So out of curiosity is there another D owner here in town I was unaware of? Let me know I'd love to meet a fellow D owner here in town.

Hey there Richmond, I'm in Norfolk VIN 1258. We should meet up sometime.
I'm not a D owner (although it is my dream to own one at some point) but I spotted another Delorean in Richmond near the Lewis Ginter Botanical Gardens.
It's set up in an old-fashioned garage with several other nice cars (including an older Viper) and it looks like it's just on display.
I can't remember the cross streets but if you're going to the Gardens from the south, it's on the left hand side. I saw a sign for a real estate agent (Richard Thalhimer of Thalhimer Real Estate) so I'm not sure if it's his. (I'll post a pic later)
The large non-profit I work for expressed interest in using a Delorean for a BTTF-themed internal commercial of sorts around the January-Februrary timeframe and I was hoping to find an owner in the area.

I'm not in Richmond but in New Kent, I knew a owner who was in Glen Allen but haven't been in contact with him for several years. How many cars in this car club?

I am trying my damndest to get transfered back to Virginia. I have little hope of it happening, but it is a priority. I would be a much better club member.

Any word on that yorktown D? It's all unsubstantiated, I realize... there are only so many used car places on that strip, though. A little cold calling might turn it up.

If everything goes right, yes. I just don't wanna be one of those people who sets a specific date and it doesn't happen. I'm just cautiously optimistic right now :)

I don't blame you for not posting anything specific, Lord knows we have enough people posting everyday about wanting to buy one so bad. Good luck on your possible purchase!

If anyone has a DeLorean and would like to travel to Richmond on July 18th please let me know as I work with the Richmond Flying Squirrels and we are having an 80's Night. I would love to get a nice DeLorean out here for our game along with the Virginia Ghostbusters. Feel free to email me at

I'm going to be at Lewis Ginter botanical Gardens on my way to the MD/DC NOVA area on the 6 June, it would mean so much to me if someone with a DeLorean could meet me there and show me their car.

With the present attitude toward anything privately owned I would be very hesitant in taking the D out.
But yes there are other owners in Ric. No car shows but tend to run around the interstate system.

Huh? I’m not sure I follow. Are you saying it’s dangerous to drive in Richmond now?

Yes

As fas as I know, only VA Beach and the DC area have get togethers on a regular basis. Just recently 3 of us got together for dinner, and few weeks prior to that it was a 150 mile cruise. Good times.
