They already have been re-making DeLorean's for some time now. Someone bought all the leftover parts and stock which I think had been sitting in storage. There was apparently enough left to entirely assemble quite a lot of them.
The problem, Vorlons, is that the supplies previously purchased are running low. They only have a couple hundred of the original PVR V6 engines still available in factory configuration, and few to no original frames left unassembled. Eventually, the supplies will run out and new components will be needed.
What I know is based on what the status was a few years ago or so, so I guess it makes sense that now is about the time they are starting to run out of parts. Apparently there was a lot of interest in the "new" DeLorean's.
Well at least those 30,000 gets you a car that is technically new. Guess its a matter of perspective. Many people pay more for classics which IMO I think should not be worth more than their value in scrap metal. I've never been a fan of the Delorean but it certainly was novel for its time and even today so I can see it appeal, even if its not a great car.
I've always thought the price to be pretty fair given the current demand for the cars. Then again, both Callista and I are hardcore DMC-12 fans.
Consider that you are getting a zero-mile ride as if it were straight from the factory of that era. You can't say the same about almost any other car out there. On top of the stock features, they also offer a range of upgrades (V8 power!) that make the cars more appealing for the cost. A good configuration will set you back $40-something. But it's a very beautiful, very unique purchase.
I wonder what that really says though? More people wear glasses here? Because more people can't afford contacts and laser eye surgery? or we just like wearing glasses more?
I noticed there was one DeLorean for sale on Finnish car sales website last summer when I was checking what kind of special cars could be found for sale. Too bad I didn't have the money to buy it. Would've been really cool to drive such a car. Would've at least drawn a lot of attention for sure. :D

I'm sure I read somewhere recently that they're gonna start making a few DeLorean's again due to popular demand from collectors.

I guess they're considered "classics" nowadays. But I still think it's funny that someone would pay $30,000 for a car that's 25 years old.

Mr Fusion $1,000,000
Always getting to work on time.... Priceless.
Exactly what I was thinking. Because glasses are pretty fashionable nowadays.
