Time-capsule DeLorean with only 309 miles emerges

1. That's pretty cool...

...but I wonder how many were put away by hopeful investors looking to turn a big fortune in a couple decades? Considering 30 years have come and gone, I imagine this one may be among the last. Of course there are two factory gold plated examples out there too.

This is obviously an unusually low mileage example, but many of those expecting six figure jackpots have been sorely disappointed. Most DeLoreans, and they're all relatively low mileage, are lucky to break the $20k mark.

I saw one at a car show once that the owner had obviously tried to "restore" with a Brillo Pad. I admit I gave an evil inward chuckle at the hapless fool's expensive lesson learned. I felt bad about it, but I just couldn't imagine what he was thinking.

I see the "Back To The Future" stigma more of a detriment than an asset to value. If I owned one, I don't know how many times I'd have to hear "flux capacitor" before I finally snapped. Thanx a lot, Doc Brown. hahaha

Thanx for posting!
