Legion, I'm sort of with you on this. Admittedly, he is the father of the muscle car and the GTO. A real smart car guy with a huge ego. The other guy that comes close is Lee Iaccoca. Both have been compared to each other - I don't care for either one of them but DeLorean seems to be more of a con guy. He essentially did nothing after his GM days. He builds a substandard card, builds it in a area with little of no technical or manufacturing expertise essentially to prove a point - he was above it all.

Would we be really talking about this guy or his car if it wasn't for the "Back to the Future movies"?
