De Lorean in Japan

in Asides, Completely Random Crap, East and Central Asia, Japan, South Korea

A Korean netizen traveling in Japan snapped these photos of an apparently Japanese-owned De Lorean DMC-12, which just so happened to be my favorite car since I was a kid.

It looks like it’s in good shape too–there are ones selling (I googled it) for only about $30,000, which surprised me.

Personally I’d rather have a Dodge Viper, but not while I’m in Korea, no way Jose.

De Loreans are so very much of their time, aren’t they? I used to love them, too – mostly because of the gull-wing doors, but the look like glorified late ’80s economy cars.

They remind me to much of the early 80′s Ford Mustang, probably one of the most unfortunate designs to ever hit the roads.
