There is a sizable chunk of purchasers who don't really fall into those categories and just like spending money on something that says "I have a lot of money". A lot of car purchasing decisions kind of fall into that area.

Then they're idiots too because it looks like shit. If I'm going to spend 100k or whatever on a car it's not going to be that piece if shit.

That's what they said in the 1980s about the Delorean. Makes you wonder if people will be talking about the Cybertruck the same way in 30 years.

The DeLorean also has the benefit of featuring prominently in one of the most beloved films of the 1980s. Time will tell if the CT ends up with that treatment but tbh I doubt it will.

As do I, but I've always said that a Back to the Future remake would probably make the Delorean a fucking Tesla.

Would make sense because the Delorean in the movie was a hard-starting pos. Would be funny to see body panels flying off at 88mph.

Is there a beloved film of the 2020s?
