Re: [DML] Sad comment.

William,

There are two sides to this story. As long as the DeLorean car is around
John DeLorean will never be forgotten. Yes, many DeLoreans are permanently
retired due to neglect, some parts are in short supply but the very strong
DeLorean parts network will make sure parts can be found. Our DeLorean
restoration business is at a 15 year high. The DeLorean will be around for
many more years, and although books about JZD are scarce, the dream will
live on.

BTW: Concerning your comment about the value of the cars; how many average
condition 20 year old production cars do you know of sell at 50% of their
original value. Keep in mind that low mileage excellent condition cars sell
for more than their new value.
