Re: leaky doors

Geeze,

This is a no-brainer. There are more parts suppliers, service centers 
and parts available for the DeLorean. It's true that the Bricklin's 
engine is way common, but that's not where the problems usually occur.

DeLorean doors have been known to leak, but not as chronically as the 
Bricklin. New seals usually do the job. Easily available. How big is 
the internet owner base for Bricklins? Probably not as big as ours. 
That means limited tech support. I don't know if you're the handy 
type who can easily fabricate or adapt for unavailable parts.

Now for the opinionated part:

Bricklins are harsh, angular vehicles aesthetically. To me, they look 
tiny inside. The DeLorean has a much more instinctive, pleasing 
shape. It has plenty of room inside for a 2 seater. I think the 
Bricklin is very interesting but it's kind of like comparing Cro-
Magnon man to Modern Man if you ask me. DeLoreans are 2800 lbs. of 
stainless steel and sex appeal.

I guess it all depends on what you're after though. Tell us which one 
you end up choosing.
