DeLoreans To Go Back To Production (cnn.com)

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the mr.-fusion-not-included dept.

An anonymous reader writes: The last time a DeLorean was built was about 35 years ago, but that is all about to change. Next year, you'll be able to buy a new 2017 DeLorean to satisfy all your deepest Back to the Future dreams. CNN reports: "The new production plan is itself something of a time warp. The cars will be built from an inventory of a million spare parts that have been in storage ever since the Belfast plant closed. Only the engine will be a creature of the 21st century."

    I'm not buying one unless it's powered by a Mr Fusion.

    400 horsepower and they don't need to meet modern safety regulations... What could possibly go wrong?
