    I don't think it makes sense to actually produce a ss car, all other examples were tests or to show off the qualities of stainless. And of course it takes away from our cars if they would produce ss cars.

    The next related thread will have to be fully chromed cars, and then a thread about metallic wraps.

    The DeLoreans may not be the only stainless steel cars in the world but they're pretty much the only stainless steel cars that get driven. All the rest are locked up in museums.

    Anyone know if those other cars are made of the same grade/gauge stainless steel as ours?

    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"

    It is the only mass produced car. Ford only built those as proof of concept models.
