Скачать или смотреть The DeLorean DMC-12: A Stainless Steel Dream or a $25,000 Failure?

In the early '80s, a stainless steel dream rolled into the spotlight with brushed metal doors that opened like wings. The DeLorean DMC-12 was a future-ready shape built by a founder who believed he could outshine Detroit, but the dream drifted from vision to cautionary tale faster than anyone expected.

In this video, we dive into the rise and fall of the iconic DMC-12. From its Lotus-inspired engineering and ambitious safety goals to the reality of a heavy frame and a struggling V6 engine, we explore why this car couldn't quite live up to its dramatic looks. We also look at its unexpected second life as a Hollywood icon and the legal storms that ultimately shut the factory doors.
