In what way?

It's a real Delorean, and it's really for sale. The Dominos story seems true also, thought I doubt that it will add much to the sales price.

No, it's real. It pops up from time to time over the years when it's been for sale or spotted.

So an eccentric bought a DeLorean and used it for promotion.
No matter how "famous" or well known it is, at the end of the day it's still just a painted DeLorean. If the Domino's story adds value to you go for it. To me all I see is a paint job that needs to be stripped off.

Car was relisted.

Seller's account does not agree with research that I did. He claims that the car was bought "off the showroom floor" by Domino's owner Tom Manoghan, but DeloreanWorld in 1998 indicated that it was first owned by DMC National Parts Manager Leif Montiri.

The most important question: does the car still smell like vintage 1980s Domino's pizza? :P

From what I heard the VIN is 1630.

It was purchased by the CEO of Dominos in 1981 and painted red, white, and blue for promotional reasons.

In the early nineties it was sold to a private collection and then sold again in the early 2000s to a man in Arkansas.

Someone bought it last year and DMC Houston is doing a full mechanical restoration right now.

Looks like this DMC is quite popular.

The founder of Dominos was the original owner, but is now owned by a jeweler in Dallas.

Glad to see her rocking the highway after nearly two decades of being dead!!
