Didn't see it posted here yet, and if it was already, I apologize.

I can let that slide if it's in reference to it being a time machine, otherwise, well, we all know the years they were made. Actually, I'm curious as to who's DeLorean that is. I noted it has custom embroidered seat covers (similar to what I want to do to mine) and chromed rims. Any one have a clue.

Danny Botkin of DMC-California has a car pretty much exactly like that. It'd make sense for it to be his. A record company would probably have contacted DMC California since they're based in LA for a DeLorean to use in their music video.

The video is actually pretty cool but I still don't understand why singers don't sing anymore. His entire voice is synthesized in the song.

Owner is Paul Nigh. He does a lot of charity and other events with it.

...and it was built by Danny. As I understand it, Paul asked Danny to build him one.

Owl City had a pretty popular song a year or two ago on the pop stations, This could help us get some 17 year old chicks.
