          It's not you. Reminds me of the various attempts to resurrect Duesenberg. They all missed the mark, too.

              @old-busted-hotness yeah, unless you've got the budget to build a Veyron in sedan form, stay the hell away from the Duesenberg name

                @ranwhenparked, @Old-Busted-Hotness It is almost impossible to replicate what Duesenberg was to its era today. It was a street legal F1 car that can seat 5 of it's time. The typical Rolls Royce of the time was producing 20 to 50 HP while a Duesy was producing over 200 HP. I would say the closest thing today would be a upper end Gulfstream jet in terms of showcasing your wealth.

                  @misterbuttercup I don't hate it but it needs more refinement. The side and rear profile do show the DMC-12 heritage. The font, not so much.

                    @krustywantout agreed. Looks good, but needs some tweaking.

                        Hoping it has even less power than the OG delorean.

                            @misterbuttercup It’s just a personal sketch project, not a real thing. A more refined version of the sketch projects I would post on old Oppo—- in fact, one of those was a DeLorean... I’ll see if I can dig it up.

                              @phenotyp would be cool to see! I did see that it was a personal project, but the article was noting that "they" do seem to plan an announcing one next fall.

                                @misterbuttercup After my buddy won the NY Auto Show sketchbattle, he challenged me to come to the Detroit show this year (which... obviously didn't happen) and do it, so I asked Oppo for some sketch prompts. This was the DeLorean, 2 rounds of 1 hour each.

                                      @misterbuttercup I like it. But I want one of the new ones the Texas-based company is making with all the old parts.

                                        I like it, but I do miss the big rectangular front end... but I guess aerodynamics are important.

                                                    @misterbuttercup Looks good from the front and rear to me, but from the side that ridiculously high beltline and those tiny windows look terrible. I guess that means they need to lower the hood so they can carry a lower line across the car. Which probably means they need to have smaller wheels/tires to allow for a lower hood.

                                                      @facw yup. I mainly shared it because while the drawings are someone's concept art, the article mentions a new DeLorean company to announce a car in fall 2021, so there might actually be a new one
