Adam wants DeLorean -- because he misses 1979

Wired tells us that new DeLoreans will soon be available. "The Houston refurb outfit that nabbed the trademark, DeLorean Motor Co. (Texas), plans to start limited construction."

Back in the early '80s we all thought the DeLorean was awesome. The gull-wing doors still seem like the future. I better have them on my flying car.

I actually considered seriously buying a used DeLorean in the late '80s. My mechanic talked me out of it, pointing out that getting parts for a car from a defunct company would be a problem. I should have bought one anyway.
