On newdelorean.com site is counting down days before the entry into force of the law, which allows to make a replica of 25-year-old machines without regard to modern safety standards.
We already know some of the details of the project. Cult Coupe, retaining body design (design Giorgetto Giugiaro), will receive a new engine (twice surpassing the original 130-horsepower 2.85-liter the V6), aggregated continue with 5-step «mechanics» (but thoroughly modified).
Who turns testing two engines from different vendors. Win the most powerful.
Accordingly, there will be another brake. The changes will affect and the chassis (it is new), electrical, front suspension and, of course, the wheels (17 and put 18-inch wheels and tires).
Sports car, which has become a cult classic due to the trilogy «Back to the Future», was restored in 1983, not once. According Motor1 edition, updated DeLorean DMC-12 is estimated from 45 to 55 thousand dollars. Presumably, the replica will cost more. A minimum of two times.
