I like the financial calculator on the steering wheel. It can be useful for making sure you don't get ripped off at the drive-thru.
As far as DeLoreans go, I think it looks all right. It's a funky car to begin with. I'm usually far more offended when I see people try and mask everyday cars with spoilers, wheels, stickers, etc. to make them look like exotic supercars or rally cars.

i like the color..and thats it!! some people have way too much money laying around. and its a rare car, yet some company manufactures altezza-type tailights for them, and at teh same time there is a fairly small aftermarket for the contour. me confused

Oh yeah, I forgot to add the quote that was under the Victory Pose: "The famous Curtis of Ohio and the even more modified car. Every year he finds more to chrome!"
And those look like Altezzas for a Supra with a custom chrome bezel.. ugh

I'm guessing all the accessories for that car are custon. I remember seeing that car while looking around the internet for deloreans. There's a bunch of people who actually have painted over the stainless steel...and the cars actually look good with some color on them. That one though, is ridiculous.

Aren't DeLoreans going for cheap, these days? (Always?)
Never that great of a car, IMHO, but exclusive, rare, and unique for sure. And if acquired cheaply, why not use it as a basis for auto d'art?
BTW, it's not rice. It's pretty nasty, but not rice. Note the lack of vinyl graphics, big wings that don't belong, and badges that boast of things that the car isn't.
Function before fashion.
