Great Scott! The DeLorean Returns Just In Time For The Future (PHOTOS x VIDEO)

Posted October 20, 2011 by Jason Brooks for Global Grind Staff

With the official release of the Nike Mag that Michael J. Fox wore in Back to the Future II, the only thing left to do is to re-release the car from the movie!

The DeLorean DMC-12 that transported Marty & Doc Back to the Future was originally released in 1981, but because of poor automobile sales was discontinued after only one year. 

The original price tag of the DMC-12 was $25,000 ($650 more when equipped with an automatic transmission); this is equivalent to approximately $60,371 in 2011, however the 2013 model will be $90,000-$100,000.

You read correctly, the DeLorean will be re-released in 2013 and DMC Motor Company plans on working with electric car start-up Epic EV to get an all-electric DMC-12. Early reports say the Electric DeLorean will have a maximum speed of 125 miles per hour, boast 260 horses, just enough to keep you on the road without accidentally driving into the future.

The DeLorean DMC-12 hasn't been in production for over three decades, but the Back to the Future series of movies and a few other companies and musicians have helped to keep it in the foreground of the people's memory.

Take a look at some of the times when the DeLorean DMC-12 has been used in popular culture in the gallery, as well as some of the music videos that the DeLorean DMC-12 has been featured in after the break!
