Yeah I updated my post with the correct information. The Stainless steel was important I guess.

You ain't wrong.

Also that RPO dudes car is loving stupid because it has the ghostbusters logo on it. That infuriates me way more than it should.

I wish cars had a stainless steel body panel option, you'd never have to worry about rust, or magnets.

...that doesn't involve homeless people.

The car doesn't even have any of the other BttF stuff on it. He literally just took the loovers off a stock DeLorean and stuck Mr. Fusion on the back.

So when I was like 17, my family went to a car auction, and they had a DeLorean, and I wanted one so bad. My dad asked if we could test drive it before placing a bid, and we drove it around. I decided against it. I love that car's design, but it's so terrible.

The Ghostbusters logo and the hazard tape stripe, and the steering "wheel" from KITT from Knight Rider. And a flight sim joystick or something for a stick shift.

I found it a moderately fun book, albeit with a writing style that screams of being self published and it contains about 6-8 eye rollingly awful rants by the protagonist/author that would be embarrassing to anyone that's not an angst ridden adolescent boy. Rest of the book is okay with some fun moments, but mostly fun in the "Haha, I understand MMO terminology and reading a story about them is novel" way.

I'll watch the movie, won't except much but some spectacle. I'm easy to please.

Same but American Psycho.

ECTO88? I never thought I could like that dude less, but I guess I wasn't expecting him to also be a nazi
He seems like a real shithead (I haven't read the book or watched any of the trailers), but I assume the 88 is a reference to the speed at which the DeLorean goes into time travel mode rather than HH.

Worse, it was brushed stainless steel. Nearly impossible to restore properly after any kind of accident. Forget your usual methods of pulling & bondo.
