I realized that this was a 'dream car' topic; you see, I *am* going to buy a Delorean, whether used or special order (via third party, officially licensed).

Sweet. One question: what happens when you get it up to 88 MPH? Anything? :

Actually, the Delorean in the movie couldn't actually achieve 88 (assuming it's a stock engine, etc. etc.). The top speed is 85, it's a Volvo engine. One of many stupid mistakes on Mr. Delorean's part, but that adds to the mystique.

There are those who replace the engines w/ Ford engines and such; others (including myself, I hope) plan on the 'add-on' that allows it to go not 88 but 180 MPH.

Aren't those the cars that were pulled off the market for accelerating and going in reverse on their own?

		hehe sorry about that for some odd reason i keep messing up with that 5 i think 57 sounds better than 67 on some level probably.

		Gallstaff	Feb 8, 2003
		um no charokee's are the cars you use for offroading etc. Little square cars you can take of the doors and roof and windows n shit. I like em.

		Why nobody wants to drive an audi TT? I also want to drive a mazda rx7, just to feel its engine. ...hmm an acura/honda nsx should be a wild ride, too

		'Nissan Skyline GTR - R34 - V-Spec II' ....... There

		Falstaf	Feb 10, 2003
		Has anyone else noticed that the majority of the cars mentioned here are from video games? :auto

		vbt	Feb 10, 2003
		I noticed that too, but nobody seems to dream of "normal" cars like mine an "A-Class" 160 "Avangarde". It's a really great car

		Falstaf	Feb 10, 2003
		Correct me if I am wrong, but isn't that a studabaker?

Are you thinking of the Wrangler? As far as I know, the Cherokee is a Ford Explorer-like vehicle and the windows and doors don't aren't removable.

		Now i remember! I always wanted a revamped US Postal Service Jeep. I'd have to move driver side back to the left, and get some seats in the back. What a trippy ride. I'll need to salvage one somewhere though.

		No falstaff, a "A-Class" is a MErcedes car here is a pic :

		Sorry. Not up on my Benz recognition.
