The 2024 Delorean...........yeah, you heard right!!!

I was all up for it, until she said it was an electric vehicle.
Bummer.

 

[Moonglow]

I am still waiting on the time machine model.

Does it come with an eight ball?

You're afraid of electricity?
What are you, 150 years old?

If it isn't powered with gasification it's unnatural.

 

[petro]

Shouldn't it be powered by Mr. Fusion by now?

So far, the future kinda sucks.

Michael J Fox approves..but electric?

I suppose they are targeting a new generation.

 

[Devils_Advocate]

Go Hybrid and stay away from the Electric because we do not have the infrastructure.

You skip your anti-psychotic meds again?

I miss the age of coke-filled Delorian CEO's.

In the third Back to the Future movie, the DeLorean being electric would have helped them, greatly.

They had the Mr. Fusion to provide almost unlimited electric power, but it still depended on a gasoline engine to get it up to 88 MPH, all the gasoline had been lost due to an arrow-induced leak, and they messed up the fuel system in a futile attempt to get it to run on whatever alcohol they were able to obtain. If the DeLorean itself had been electric, then Doc Brown would have been able to just hook the Mr. Fusion up to power the propulsion as well as the time machine.


But then, another solution occurred to me, I think the first or second time I watched the movie, that would have been a lot easier than what they ended up doing.

Doc Brown has just buried the DeLorean in a cave in 1885, shortly before Marty arrived. That DeLorean almost certainly had plenty of gasoline, and a good fuel system. They should have just taken what they needed from that one, to get the one in which Marty had arrived working—gasoline, fuel system components, whatever else might have been messed up in the one in which Marty had arrived. Left behind any damaged components, to give the 1955 Doc Brown a better chance at fixing the one they retrieved out of the cave, which would surely have been much easier in 1955 than in 1885. Certainly gasoline was more available in 1955 than in 1885, so they could have taken all of it in 1885 from the one that was buried, but probably better to leave some. Leaded 1955 gasoline would damage the catalytic converter in a 1980s DeLorean, but that would have been a non-issue compared to the other challenges that they faced.

It's actually better looking than the original.
But yeah they lost me at electric.

Not stainless steel this time. I wonder if it still snorts up the white line on the road.

They all died of Fentanyl overdoses.

Why can't they design the Lucid to look that good? Electric or not, I'd almost like the car but the last thing I need or want to pay for is a car with seats that hug and kiss me or track all of the people on my phone. I buy a car to fucking DRIVE.

And you can bet this car is going to be somewhere in the price range of a Ferrari to a Lamborghini.

 

[lg325]

I didn't know they were still in business. Looks sharp.

 

[Calypso Jones]

This is going to go over as well as the 'kitchen of the future'.

 

[Sunni Man]

Well the new EV DeLorean should easily outperform the original DeLorean which had a very anemic engine.
But, I still wouldn't buy one. ...

Drop a 1,000 h.p V12 in it, get rid of all of the useless crap like seats that blow on your neck to let you know your special someone blew you a kiss across town and you'd have a pretty nice car.

Or, keep the same car but just change a few features like adding an instant pizza maker in the glove-box, a drink dispenser between the seats, a dash voice which enunciates each knob function as you press it in a very sexy girl's voice while playing hot porn in the windshield reflection that no one else can see and swap out that kissing / hugging seat feature for one that sucks you off and I'll consider it.

If you get all that, you'll only be able to drive it from your driveway to the alley to park. All bets are off on whether you'll have enough charge to return to the driveway.
