well if you dont want a case of 12 from DMC then watch your wal mart and other toy shelves soon. They will be on the shelves soon for the christmas season.

I think I might just buy three cases.. $10.80 a case plus shipping is a pretty good deal..

I don't even bother looking on ebay anymore because I see so many that I want and just can't get atm... The one downtown from me is so expensive. They're asking 23,000 for it and it's a needs a bunch of stuff... The salesmen said the owner will not work on price so it's his loss. It's sad though I pass by it all the time.. It's been sitting in that lot for a year now.

I hear ya, my dad and I went to look at a MINT 81 and this guy totally restored it 100% down to the exact curl with the red wire on the alternator. He had the original tires stored, everything... I honestly think it was better than when it was new and it had I think like 20,000 miles on it. He even had this stainless steel DMC flask that came with the car as well as a truckload of books about DMC and John DeLorean.. It was amazing.. He only wanted 40k for it and said he's think about it when we told him 35k

It's just depressing though cause I can't afford one right now How amazing would it be to have it as a daily driver for a bit? Be so much fun..

Well thats cool though, was it a big place? DMCCA wasn't that big but it just amazed me because I've never seen so many DMC-12's in one area like that before.. Even my mom who doesn't really care for the DeLorean was like "wow!" I bet DMCH must be pretty awesome...

again thanks for posting this though, I am going to buy a case probably in the next few days, it's a sweet deal...
