If they do this right, they might have a hit on their hands

The "more modern engines" part better mean "a lot more horsepower". The original ones had something like 160 or 180 HP, but with the bodies made of stainless steel, they were too heavy to really perform. If they make them a little lighter with a serious upgrade in power, these could be pretty cool.

HAHAHA!!! YES! Anyone who grew up in the 80's can't help but have a place in their hearts for the Delorean!

I can't WAIT to see one in person.

Which is pretty much what the originals were, so that's cool.

I'm a HUGE, HUGE, HUGE DeLorean fan! I think that reviving that car is a great idea, just wish Mr. John Z. himself was here to do it.
