    Maybe make it colorable? Add spoiler? Make it flying like a jet?
    And my response is: No
    Go back to GTA if you didn`t like it
    sorry if i sound like a prick, but i just don`t like these kind of suggestions

    by skinnable I mean the ability to make liveries for it such as race liveries you'd find on some BeamNG vehicles

    Tbh I don't think this car is fast enough to have a proper race version, sure there could be an engine swap but why

    hmm, tube framed, fibreglass front and rear panels, lengthen the rear so you can mid-mount a V8, i think you could be on to something...

    This is BeamNG, not GTA.

    Right-hand-drive models
    DeLoreans were primarily intended for the American market. All production models were therefore left-hand-drive. DMC was aware as early as April 1981 of the need to produce a right-hand-drive (RHD) version to supply to world markets, specifically the United Kingdom (UK). DMC faced the choice of building right-hand-drive models from scratch or performing a post-production conversion. Given the cost of new body molds, tooling, and a host of specific parts that a factory-built right-hand-drive configuration would require, the company opted to investigate the idea of a post-production conversion using a UK company based in Andover, Hampshire, called Wooler-Hodec Ltd. About 30 early DeLoreans were shipped to Wooler-Hodec and the best 20 were to be converted to RHD however only 13 were completed before DMCL went into receivership which subsequently led to the closure of Wooler-Hodec.

    Three other factory authorized RHD cars were built known as AXI cars. These cars were registered and used by the factory in Northern Ireland, with registration numbers (license plates), AXI 1697, AXI 1698, AXI 1699 and have minor differences from the Wooler-Hodec cars.

    After the liquidation of DMC, many of the factory company cars were sold at various auctions around the UK, some of which were converted by former Wooler-Hodec employees and DMCL engineers to RHD resulting in eight known post-factory RHD conversions.



    Look really good. Keep up the great work. :)

    That "no" was meant as a "I won't be making one", it didn't mean "RHD deloreans don't exist"
    I'm perfectly aware that they are a thing, I just don't want to spend time flipping everything so that it can have a RHD version

    I might make one in the future but no promises and it's very unlikely.

    tbh I personally don't think making a race version is worth it considering the amount of different delorean versions that have already been cut out
    but you kinda just answered your own question right there
