nuzman Posted August 1, 2007 Report Share Posted August 1, 2007 Just because they were so great to begin with, check this out: http://abclocal.go.com/ktrk/story?section=...&id=5526110 Didn't they originally come with that horrible 231 Buick V-6?

ImpoSStor SS Posted August 1, 2007 Report Share Posted August 1, 2007 The De Lorean DMC-12 was produced with a PRV (Peugeot-Renault-Volvo) fuel injected V-6 displacing 2.8 L. That "horrible" Buick 231 V6 works just fine in my 1987 Grand National and the millions of other GM vehicles so equipped since 1975. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fireman31 Posted August 2, 2007 Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 My GTP had that "horrible" 231 V6 in it (3800 Series III, L32), it was just such a bad motor that it constantly used to beat my friends 5.0 Mustang(modded) everytime we lined up......

WI_Dave Posted August 2, 2007 Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 I almost bought one last year. low miles and needed a tranny. I like them but they are so heavy they are slow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KJT13 Posted August 2, 2007 Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 my neighbor has one, but NEVER drives it. it just sits in his drive way there's one near where I work. in 12 years the thing hasn't moved. they actually blocked it in under their carport with logs so you can barely see that it's there. WTF??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
