This is the one that has been on Craigslist for quite a while I think. Very nice car with NCT radials:notworthy:

I love how they say it has the "very rare automatic" transmission.
It is nice, though.

All original and perfect driving conditon!:hysterical: It looks nice from a cosmetic standpoint, but nobody will be able to drive it very far with NCTs and original coolant hoses, brakes, etc. Perfect example of what NOT to buy if you wanna drive it.

Yea, anything to hype up the sales and make it look even better!

I just checked the Craigslist ad. It's a different one.

mmmm

"2,126 of 8,593 of cars built over three years "

I first thought that this simply meant that it is vin 2126, but that is a B/M (owned on here by leroyvette) and the pics are of a B/A.

So if the lister knows that vins started at 500, would he have translated 2626 or 2625 as the 2,126th?

It's completely rhetorical since we know that they obviously don't have a clue about the DeLorean. But it does make you wonder though about how many other cars over the years they've misrepresented in their auctions.
