Seller’s Description: This 1981 DeLorean DMC-12 was sold new at Brooks Biddle Chevrolet in Bothell, Washington with an MSRP $30,191. It is finished in a custom two-tone black and gold finish, which was reportedly applied by the selling dealer at the original owner’s request. It was acquired in 1989 by the second owner, a Delorean enthusiast and engineer by trade, with whom it remained until the seller acquired it earlier this year. Power comes from a 2.85-liter PRV V6 paired with a three-speed automatic transmission, and maintenance within the past month included changing the fluids, overhauling the brakes, and performing a tune-up. This DMC-12 is now being offered with service records, the original books, original Washington license plate, period literature, and a clear Washington State title.
