well im talking about the flying cars that look most european for now. id sooner consider the delorean(italian) from "black to the future" than adding another allied aircraft like the flying wannabango(american). Although i wouldnt consider the delorean because time travel is unfair in a dogfight. you could just go back in time and clear your own six. totally unfair in my opinion. dont even get me started on the jetsons.

Just because the guy who helped design it is italian, does not mean it is italian, Italian people are smart enough to know that building a car made of stainless steel is a retarded idea

...because Fiat's are brilliantly engineered cars... :noid
A car that doesn't rust, corrode, need compounding/waxing, has modular body panels that any idiot can change and can be made to look showroom new in moments with some elbow grease and a nylon scrubby pad? What a horrible idea :rolleyes:

Not cost effective.
They don't wear out. (wonder why cars today do not last nearly as long as they used to? Designed obsolescence, anyone?)
The company couldn't stay solvent at the price it was selling it's cars at. They cost more to produce than originally expected and therefore the market price had to follow suit.
John Delorean's reputation was besmirched by false accusations and very bad press, all of which he recovered from personally, but by the time it was found out that it was all untrue, the company was in shambles.
Their is still a thriving, vibrant community of Delorean DMC-12 owners and, in fact, one can still buy or assemble by one's self, a "new" DMC-12 utilizing unused OEM parts that were produced but never assembled at the plant.

(PS: That is not the only car he ever designed. Ever heard of a Pontiac GTO? :rock )

He designed alot of nice cars, the delorean peformance wise was a POS tho, back to the future could bnever have worked because during a road test, the delorean could not reach 88mph, It is a nice car I guess, I just dislike it, but as for th designer I have owned one of his works and consider it one of the greatest cars ever built

Agreed.

I would buy the gold plated one, but at 250 000$ I could also buy another maser :lol

The Delorean is Brittish and was only a prototype field modded by the Americans, its time travel abilities would make it perked in the order of millions. -1
Chitty Chitty Ban Bang would make a great early war flying car. +1

One of my favorite cars.
Brilliantly innovative, implementing technology and safety measures that have become standard today. :aok
A sterling example of how big business will do anything possible to quash the innovative entrepreneur regardless of how better/safer the final product is for the consumer if it will affect their bottom line.
There is one at the car museum in Lancaster, PA (near Miller's Restaurant for lack of a better landmark)
Ingenious :rock
