I saw that car at the car show during the ALMS 12 hours of Sebring this year. There's a thread about it somewhere. 20B power baby! The car is sweet, except that it's painted black and it could be a better paint job. Other than that the car is very clean and if I remember correctly the guy even swapped the guages out of a Cosmo.

It has about 115hp~ from a V6. There were some rare-as-**** twin turbo engines out there but good luck finding them. Originally Mr. Delorean wanted to put a 12a in there, it would have lightened it up some, that V6 is a monster! But yeah, GM didnt like that idea...
