Pick one car

[Rainman]

I'd take the 308 GTS that Magnum drove, if I had to live in that era. And I'd let all you guys look at it, cause I'm just such a nice guy, and I'd take all the ladies for a ride, cause I'm just such a . . .

[Rainman]

Nah, maybe the Ferrari from Miami Vice.

[Aqua Letifer]

Also? Come the fuck on.

If one ignores the claimed time-travel aspects of the DeLorean, you're basically left with an aluminium shit-box designed by a crook.

I'd take the A-team pedo-mobile, and park it near schools whilst smoking an enormous cigar and grinning inanely.

Obviously, I'm lying. I'd take the Aston Martin and park it near schools.

Aston Martin, assuming the Delorean can’t time travel. Otherwise duh.

Right? And even if it’s just a DeLorean, then the Aston Martin is the easy pick. The Ferrari’s are worth roughly $100K each while the Aston Martin would be somewhere around $400K… And that’s without adding collector value.

The Aston Martin, of course. In another thread @Doctor-Phibes said something about the Brits being sophisticated. Though, in general, he's wrong about that (ducking), in this case it's all about the style.

And, the DeLorean was a crappy car, if I recall. Underpowered, unreliable. The only "cool" things about it were the gull-wing doors and stainless steel...and perhaps time travel.

Keep in mind, you are stealing the car

The owner matters, you don’t want a detective or secret agent chasing you

Aston Martin

Not even a fair competition

So much class is such a nice package

That's totally fine. He wouldn't have a car, and I doubt that he could outrun mine.

I believe you would find that a very good condition DB5 would be much more than $400. In fact I would wager that it could fetch over a million. Not that many of them around any more and there were not a lot built when they were in production in the 1960s.

This is an interesting story…
