So, I think I may jump in to the DeLorean world. I live in San Jose, CA and my friend in CT is selling his (www.eskin.com/delorean). I have been tempted to own one since they were first manufactured.
My problems:
- I've never actually DRIVEN one. I don't know if I fit well into them, how they are to drive, etc etc. Flying out to CT for a test drive seems a bit extreme.
- CARB can make life miserable. I don't know how to test a car to CARB standards out of state before buying it.
- Care and feeding. I can do some work myself but would like to have a competent mechanic to help with things. From an earlier thread, it looks like Fremont may have the nearest shop.
Despite these things... It's a DeLorean!! I have a chance to own one. How cool is that?
