DeLorean dead at 80
Auto Innovator John DeLorean Dies at 80
Yahoo/AP news story:
http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u ... t_delorean
"NEWARK, N.J. - John Z. DeLorean, an automotive innovator who left General Motors Corp. to develop a radically futuristic sports car only to see that venture crash spectacularly as he fought federal drug charges, has died at age 80."
I wonder if he'll be buried in a stainless steel coffin?

A friend of mine use to own one of these back in about '84, but traded it for a '55 Corvette. He probably came out ahead on the deal since his Vette is now worth about twice as much as the most expensive DeLoreans selling here on eBay:
