There is a DeLorean Shop east of I-45 on Sam Houston Pkwy/Beltway 8. I saw about 50 of them outside.

It is actually closer to 59 North and BW8. I pass by there every day, there are at least 10 parked outside during business hours. Nice looking shop, hard to believe someone can make a living just working on those cars alone.

They had a 2.8 Liter Peugot (sp) V6 in them, I am sure you could get a LS1 in one.
