Yeah, I was a little upset they didn't say they were going to put the car into the 11s. The most interesting part of the episode was who they got to help them.

nice appearance in this episode by Josh from DPI. That engine looked amazing.

Yeah, I must say I was a little disappointed as well......
The guest appearance by DPI was cool, but it otherwise fell a little flat. I wonder if the show got a discounted rate on the parts?? I'm also surprised that they didn't do an engine swap. I think I enjoyed the Delorean Wheeler Dealers episode much more. At least those guys sorta walked me through a rear main seal replacement. 😜
I'm still wondering how those Fat N Furious guys were able to actually fit in the drivers seat and close the door.... I'm nowhere their size and feel a little confined when in my car all buckled in.
You can't buy happiness, but you can buy a DeLorean and that's sort of the same thing....

Delorean 3610, is this how Brian S really got the car or is it "the magic of television"?

That was obviously not the same car at the beginning as in the end. The bumper letters mysteriously disappeared from the rear fascia and the car suddenly didn't have a SPEC 1 exhaust. And it also gained the DeLorean hood emblem at the end...

The car, appearance by Josh, and the cute nerdy chick were the only things about it that I felt were worth watching....the rest was somewhat annoying and hokey.

You're not really supposed to take the show seriously. They all act over the top for fun.

In all honesty, they were quite gentle on the Delorean. I was expecting a total bash of the car, but they defiantly didn't go out of their way to demolish it's reputation or anything...at least not severely.
