I don't know any of the details about this auction other than this is my #6 car, as built for sale on the Discovery Channel show "Auction Kings".
It's a good car with real neon tubes, smoke machine, etc.
I would get easily $100K for this car if I built this now.
Go bid on it!

Wow, for that price you'd think they would provide more photos and more information. People never seem to realize how important a proper ad is when selling something...

I'll be sure to contact the seller and quote a price to reverse the damage and put it back to "respectable".

So, is this the start of the BTTF cars being sold off now that 10/15/15 is over, I wonder?

I don't always drive cars, but when I do, I prefer DeLoreans

No-one is to stone anyone, even, and I want to make this absolutely clear, even if they do say "carburetor"

I'm sure Dermot meant 10/21/15. This could be a "testing the waters" type of auction, with a high reserve, so maybe not a "trend".Originally Posted by Dangermouse
Not sure about this one. Owner has kept to himself, with no interest in the local DMC club or in attending the DMC MW Open House.
I believe the owner also owns a Collectibles business, so he may use it for advertising his business or maybe he just likes the vehicle.
As far as I know, the owner only did one BTTF-related activity this past October (on October 20/21, depending on the article dates).

There will not be a Part IV, or a remake. Period.

Unless someone comes along and convinces them to do it, as long as it's a really good story... Never say never..
People thought there'd never be anymore Star Wars after prequels were made.
People thought there'd never be anymore Star Trek after Star Trek VI - the undiscovered country.
People thought there'd never be anymore Ghostbusters (and to be honest, there shouldn't be unless it went off the original franchise).
There's a good way to continue a story, and a really bad way.
I'll be you a buck (one WHOLE dollar!) that someday there will be a new BTTF - that's not a reboot. And it will be awesome.

There won't be a remake or a sequel as long as the main 3 are alive, Bob Gale, Robert Zemekis or Steven Speilberg.
They have vowed to never let it happen.
But eventually, someone will.
They remade the Wizard of Oz with Michael Jackson.
Anything can happen.
