I wish them luck - but I don't hold much hope for anything beyond a limo-tint-windowed shell car in August.

The renderings are a bit ~handwavy - but I really think the 1 door for 2 seats access would have worked better as a 1+2 seater with the driver front center.

"The Alpha5 is a representation of the past 40 years of DeLorean"

Hasn't DeLorean been bankrupt and a dead company for the past 40 years? And that's what the Alpha 5 represents????

Seems like you can market anything. The Delorean name stands for nothing but failure,corruption, cocaine and shafting the UK taxpayer. I get post mortem that Back to the Future got them cult status but always thought the creative decision to use DMCs was a bit of an irionic joke.

:D Who's going to play Colin Chapman/ Lotus this time around?

The renderings prove DMC 2.0 don't have access to anyone even close to Giugiaro's talent.

Hmmm…are these the guys that “bought” Saddleback and declared their intentions to make it the premier ski area in North America?

I saw a real one, running, on the street a couple of weeks ago when I was riding my bike.
