More recognized & more fun to drive... probably yes, but as far as getting more
attention... no. 

Joe O'Brien & I have a friend who owned a Ferrari 308 (the Magnum P.I. car). When
driving around one day (Joe & 'friend' in the Ferrari) and me following behind,
we came to a stop light. Joe heard the people on the corner yell, "awe wow look
at that car", "cool a DeLorean" - totally ignoring the bright red Ferrari right
in front of them. This also happend to me on other occations while driving with
the Ferrari.

Having owned both; I disagree. The Ferrari is more recognized and, in my opinion 
as a driver, more enjoyable because you can experience more open air. The 
Delorean is a great car (with fantastic styling), don't get me wrong, but half of
the 
attention it gets is from people uneducated about the marquee and with all kinds
of 
theories about what motor is in it, drug conspiracies, and whether or not JZD is 
still in jail (RIP). If only JZD could have designed the inside of the Ferrari 
(Not nearly as cozy). I'm just saying let's not let our imaginations get outta
hand 
here...;-)
