Look out for A feature on DMC Houston on one of the upcoming episodes of top gear. Aparently filmed when they did the recent article in the mag.

I didnt think the photos were too bad. Critics seem to be afraid of being pro DeLorean cause of the supposed taxpayers lost money. This money however has been more than reembursed since the factory closed. Everytime we import cars or parts from the US or anywhere abroad for the that matter you pay tax on it. A stupid amount at that!

The article in the mag was generally neautral on it all apart from the usual cocaine cracks and alike. I can imagine the show being pretty much the same.

Cool! It was that article that brought me to the DeLorean scene and made me want one!

Hope they do say positive things about it!
