    Depends.

    If your knuckles are outwards towards the other person, then it is like the middle finger.


    However if the knuckles are towards the person giving the gesture, then it is a V for victory sign, made famous by Churchill.


    Watching that video on my phone, I can't really be sure, but it looks like the latter.

    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"

    Also, according to the little grin of the dude that made the video (of lousy quality), suggests that the it was the maker of the video that was trolling the owner. Without seeing what happened before, anything is possible,

    I can't believe this hasn't been mentioned yet: how about the lack of cup-holders?!
    I mean, wasn't this car originally designed to be for the executive demographic?

    Owen, we need to move into Demot's neighborhood. Sound a lot more exciting than ours.

    What about your DeLorean do you dislike the most?

    Something I dislike was forced on me yesterday.
    Backing up a long distance with any precision, (Doors closed, on a curved, curbed drivway).

    I picked my daughter up after a minor surgical procedure. The patient pickup was around back, along a narrow curving driveway with curbs on both sides.
    Of course, there was an idling, empty van effectively blocking my exit. The nurse that brought my daughter out, said she had no idea where the van's driver was, and advised either waiting or backing out.
    After a couple of minutes, I decided to back out.

    Needless to say, I had to open my door to see where the curb was while backing up.
