De Lorean: Stainless Steel Illusion

Summary: A great book! Now even better!
Review: The first edition of SSI has been considered the greatest resource for history on the DeLorean Sports Car and DeLorean Motor Company. With literally hundreds of photos (color and black & white) of prototypes, the factory, employees, testing, and more, it's without question the best book available on the DeLorean car. John Lamm has a great way of writing that really makes it interesting and easy to understand. The bit at the end by former DMC executive Mike Knepper offers a unique insiders view from that time in history. But it's car that is the real story here, and the only bad part is the original printing of just 10,000 copies means that today it is very hard to come by, with asking prices occasionally in excess of $400 for a pristine copy! If that's too much for you, don't despair! The new DeLorean Motor Company (www.delorean.com) has reprinted the book from the original films, adding a chapter covering the last 20 years since the original was printed. At less than $40, it's a great alternative to buying an original, first edition!
