I'm surprised this thread is dead with just a little over a month to the show.

A few of the previous owners don't have their cars anymore. I planned on going this year, anyone else?

Just completed my registration for the carshow on saturday!

Is anyone else doing the road rally on sunday? I'm on the fence about it. It sounds really cool but I dont really know much about it. Anyone have any other info about it? The website is kind of vague.

In the past, most D owners just do the show. I think Dan Harris has done the rally in the past, but I believe he's one of the few who've done it in the D.

Kathryn DeLorean, John's daughter and long time friend of the Celebration Exotic Car Festival, will be at the event all weekend, April 11-13.

Last day for the early registration discount for the concours is Thursday, March 27.

Our record for DeLoreans at the concours is 22, let's beat that number this year!

The Celebration Exotic Car Festival is the largest charity exotic car show in the country, with 260 exotic cars and 40,000+ spectators. The event was named "One of the 5 Best Exotic Car Shows in the World" by Made Man magazine. The display of exotic cars, race cars, and screen used movie cars is just incredible!

The 4 days include 2 track days at Daytona, VIP parties, the concours, an exclusive concert by STYX, and the famous police escorted Sunday rally. This is an event you do not want to miss!

you should come out anyway if you can make it! Best time to get to meet the FL D owners and see some amazing cars!

The concours field is nearly sold out (240+ cars already registered!) but we do not yet have our normal showing of DeLoreans - only 6 D's so far. We normally reserve space for 15 D's. With Kathryn DeLorean attending the event this year, we would like to see 20 DeLoreans on the concours field. Bring your car out for the largest charity exotic car show in the country, and meet Kathryn!

Long time friend Tony Ierardi and DMC Florida will even pay for half your registration fee! (Thanks Tony!) even if you have already registered.

Thursday, March 27 is the last day for the early registration discount!

We were going to drive over early Saturday morning then home after the show but, my granddaughter told my wife she wanted to go. Now my wife has us staying in Disney Friday and Saturday night headed home on Sunday Morning. Because there are three of us now we have to take two cars.

I may be open to the Rally Sunday, Nick what did you decide to do?

If anyone is coming from the east coast I plan on bringing the VR6 DeLorean to the show as well. We can meet up in the morning at the shop and drive over as a group. You can contact me at 321-426-0061 if you are interested.

I am staying at Disney's Animal Kingdom and will be over in the morning. I would suspect it's Tony's but I'm just guessing.

Terry & Oliver already had another commitment elsewhere this year, so Bruce Colombe brought out one of his for the charity photo ops area. :rollin:

That's funny, my friend who lives in the area asked if it was the same car we saw at DCS12. I was proud of myself for spotting a few differences and being able to tell her no it was another replica.

So how nervous were you guys about having these things out or did Disney security add a bonus relief over the usual car show?

Nicholas R

Not nervous at all.

Disney no longer owns Celebration; the 24 hour security was provided by Osceola County Sherrifs Department.

Honestly, the deloreans were the last cars on their minds to protect. Have you ever been to this show? Millions of dollars in cars there. I'd guess there was around $300,000 worth of deloreans at the show. There were probably 50 cars at he show that individually were worth more than that. Heck the McLaren P1 at the show was worth 1.2 Million dollars. In the shadows of the Bugattis, lamborghinis, ferraris, mclarens, rolls Royce's, and more, I wasn't too worried :wink:

I don't know it wasn't as nice as the one last year that had it's own security team :cool:

Of the cars with some years on them I liked the 1963 Split window Corvette the best.
