The DeLorean DMC-12 is a sports car built by the DeLorean Motor Company from 1981 to 1983, distinguished by its brushed stainless steel body panels and gull wing doors. Fewer than nine thousand were made before the company collapsed, and the car later became widely known through its appearance as a time machine in the Back to the Future film series.
