even in the movie, DeLorean was a known p.o.s. car

It would have the same reputation as the Bricklin. Largely forgotten.

I never understand why he didn’t use a v8

the delorean was known to be a piece of junk, a delorean being a time machine is a joke, getting to 88 mph is a joke because it struggled not to break down.
infact during filming they had 2 deloreans they swapped between because they'd break down so often

nobody would give a fuck about it.

The hype wouldnt have existed. Now the other question is if another car would have taken the place as the time machine?

If the movies were never made it would be like the Gremlin and the Pinto, known as junk with a small niche crowd that loves them.

It would be like the Bricklin.

I think if Bob Zemeckis had made the car a Corvette or Trans am or something it wouldn't have been as memorable either for the movie

cellomold :
The fact that the DeLorean existed in back to the future, and it still failed as a car company, pretty easily explains how it would have done without the movie

Without BTTF We might of gotten an actual John DeLorean movie. Drugs, crime and an obscure car.

DeLorean would still be well known round here. I live about 200m from where they built it 😂.

Why would you buy a delorean without liking back to the future

It would probably either go down the same as a bricklin or a Fiero

I don't want to live in a world without Back To The Future. And let's not forget, Marty chose a 1985 Toyota Pickup, and those are legendary.

This is a very interesting question. The DMV-12 had already been out of production for two years by BttF. It had a number of celebrity owners and poor rep. Doc did say “might as well do it in style”.

Shayne Peters :
what would you think in a hypothetical world where the DeLorean didn't exist and they used a Bricklin instead for Back to the Future?

not to mention the ass on the ass on that delorean is really nice with those heat exchangers and gull wing doors

they would say it's just another rich unreliable car for coke heads but back to the future saved it from being forgotten

no one would really remember it aside from "oh yeah that stainless steel car made by the GTO/Vega guy".

They wanted to use a Mustang. Thank the lord they did not. BORING!!

Rocket Car Archives :
The DMC DeLorean was the cyber truck of that era. Both made by cocky millionaires that thought they could design cars, and both sucked at the jobs they were supposed to have. Back to the future 100,000% saved that cars reputation.

i think it'd be a little bit more popular than the bricklin because of the stainless steel

Idk, the bricklin is tacky looking. The DeLorean is a Giugiaro design that would’ve garnered more attention down the line and people would look back and realise what a great design it was.

Like the Bricklin, but those at least came with AMC or Ford V8 power

Ross McLaren :
utterly forgotten to the point of being less known about than the RR Merlin Engined BEAST, because of stanless steel panels or the fact it was a production vehicle and the government twiddling by John DeLorean

Steam Powered DM :
What these guys are missing is that a year after the car came out, John Delorean was arrested by the FBI for drug trafficking.

Tom :
My dad sold those on his lot. Many thought it was the coolest car until the got in it and saw that the window didn't roll down and got claustrophobic. Not a vehicle for a big city if your like drive throughs.
