Gotta love it when self proclaimed experts tell us what our cars should be worth...

When was Scottsdale anyway? Back in the spring? I completely missed it

I noticed the hood too, along with those wheel weights that have no doubt damaged the finish by now.
I find it funney that they list the car as a "4-Speed Manual" in the description. If I were the bidder, I'd claim false advertisement!

For Better or Worse I own a DeLorean!
1983 Grey Manual, VIN #16409, Fresno, California
The majority of DeLoreans still sell for $22-26k through Mecum & Barrett Jackson, though.

I actually thought the wide stripe car would have gone for much higher than that. It was a beautiful preservation-level example. But there is often little logic to the sale prices of auction vehicles.
I will say, I'd be pleased with inflating values if it means more cars are restored and preserved as classics vs being heavily customized. But to each their own. We all enjoy these cars in our own ways for our own reasons.

I recorded Thursday's auction but I stopped watching with 1 hour to go and they were only at lot 333 so I doubt the DeLorean which started at 360something made it to air.
