[DML] Re: DeLorean Interest Increasing

["Louie" <louie@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Naturally JZD's death would be a jump start for interest in the 
DeLorean automobile and story. There really hasn't been anything for 
the media to report on in the better part of two decades on the man 
or the car. This is probably the single bigges thing to happen to 
the DeLorean saga yet, sans the first car being produced and the 
factory being closed.

I've been driving the car all week as a nod to JZD, and the amount 
of attention it has recieved has been astounding. I drove it to 
lunch yesterday and had 20 people come of of the restaurant and 
swarm the car, talking about it and JZD's passing... and how 
incredible it was to see one out after hearing the news. I've talked 
to a couple other owner friends of mine this week who have had 
similar experiences. That's why I'm toying with inviting some media 
sources out to our little Charlotte get together this weekend. We 
may as well ride this media surge while it lasts. As unfortunate as 
JZD's passing is, I think it's an excellent time to push the man and 
the car into the spotlight in a positive way.
