I want to do something special for my boyfriend's birthday. We both love the DeLorean and I want to get him something related. What would make a cool gift?

A hotwheels car?................A full BTTF replica?................................Something in between?


A budget and perhaps age range would be useful

Does he like art? There's a lot of cool DeLorean wall art/t-shirts/other random stuff on Society6. DMCH also sells a lot of DeLorean memorabilia. Or you could take a cool picture of yourself with your car and get it printed & framed for him. There was a guy of Facebook selling metal cutouts that are kind of neat, too: https://m.facebook.com/groups/116227491775513?view=permalink&id=1946192142112363

Do you still have your DeLorean? If so, does it run? There are obviously a lot more opportunities if a real DeLorean is involved.

You are a she. He is apparently a he. He is your boyfriend. You own a Delorean. Get a camera and a nice isolated place. Take pictures he would like of YOU and the Delorean together. Do not email them, do not keep them in the cloud. Make a print, give it to him and if you ever break up, burn the print. Make it a GOOD picture and he will remember it his entire life. Make it a bad picture and he will not only remember it his entire life but probably give you whatever you want for YOUR entire life.

He's got one of these and when did they get so expensive?

The metal thing is neat, but I'm not on facebook. I don't think he has anything from DMCH. Not sure how I'd take a picture without him knowing.

I'm involved in a lawsuit over it. If you see it for sale don't buy it.

I know. They were $30 when I got mine.

I can't take a photo of myself and don't have anyone to help with that and wouldn't let anyone see me that way.

I've never seen him drink beer. Sorry to shoot down every suggestion. If it were easy I wouldn't have asked for help.

Get him a cake with a picture of a DeLorean on it? Or just make one yourself and stick a model DeLorean on top of it? My friends did that for me the year I bought my car and I still have fond memories of it :biggrin:

How about you make him a "voucher" for a free pass for a whole weekend where he can do what he wants, see his friends with his D without question and without interrupting him, questioning him, or adding your opinion in too.

Total cost to you: $5 for the paper/ card/ ink to make said voucher

Total value to him: Priceless

He might not drink beer. But something else. Then this might by useful:

But I have not seen them in real and can't tell about the quality.
