Superbowl Half-Time Show - Delor.I.Am Revealed ?

Postby Dangermouse » Thu Feb 03, 2011 6:09 pm

In case you aren't aware of it, during the halftime show by the Black Eyed Peas in the Superbowl on Sunday (this Sunday, Feb 6 if you are not an American Football fan), supposedly Will.I.Am is revealing his DeLorean (dubbed Delor.I.Am) that he bought from DMC-CA last year and immediately took to West Coast Customs to be "pimped". See here: http://www.dmctalk.com/showthread.php?t=17949

Rumour has it that it was widened to allow the drivetrain from an Audi R8, but we'll see.

I would guess that the halftime show will start at about 1:00am or 1:30am UTC, but check your Radio Times

It was just a pic that one of the California owners found on a WCC forum. May be nothing, may be an initial sketch, or a final rendering (I couldn't find the related post). Pictures are pretty anyway. :lol:

Sorry about the picture format, thanks for fixing. The pic is so small I can't see whether the bumper letters say DeLorean or Delor.I.Am :D

Well hopefully we'll get the half time show over here. It's on BBC1 and BBC1HD starting at 10:55 on Sunday: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00yf5kq - and on Sky Sports 1. Although I think it's fairly likely we'll get a studio full of sexist pundits at half time, rather than the action on the pitch.
