    Looking in Florida

    Hey gang.
    I'm a former owner looking for a grey 5 speed in Florida. I'm currently looking at a nice looking car out of state, and I may very well go that direction. However I would like to give my home state a chance, as the idea and cost of shipping a car is kinda scary. I've made several trips to DMC FL, LOVE them but they are a bit dry on cars at the moment.
    I have a budget now in the mid thirties, If you know of or have anything you think I should take a look at please let me know,
    Thanks in advance for any replies, I've been reading a lot here and you guys are great!

    Thanks guys,
    While it looks like the forum was silent, I did receive a number of PMs about this thread with some helpful information.
    I have a deal that looks like its 90% in the bag, I will post with updates, but it looks like my search may be over.

    Welcome! I hope you have success with your search, if you find anything near the Tampa area and you want a second opinion let me know and I can help look at a car for you.

    Thanks. I bought a car!
    I called Mike at DMCMW about a car he had listed, unfortunately it had sold. However he told me his brother was interested in selling his DeLorean, a grey 5 speed with grooved hood, (oct 81 car) After some back and forth I decided to buy it. I've paid DMCMW for a complete break overhaul and as soon as thats done I'm having it trailered down to me here in Florida.
