====DMC-24====
The '''DMC-24''' was a proposal for a 4-seater [[sedan (automobile)|sedan]] retaining the general shape and gull-wing doors of the DeLorean. Several designs were drafted. One design, a 2-door, had the doors and cabin of the DeLorean stretched to allow rear entry and rear seating. Another design had a separate set of rear doors. The 4-door design was produced as a rolling mock-up by [[ItalDesign]], based on the [[Lancia Medusa]] concept car. The bill for the ItalDesign version was unpaid by DMC, and ItalDesign modified it to become the [[Lamborghini Marco Polo]] concept car.<ref name="Jalopnik-2013-04-11">{{cite web |url= https://jalopnik.com/the-proposed-delorean-sedan-is-as-coke-tastically-80s-472089598 |title= The Proposed DeLorean Sedan Is As Coke-Tastically '80s As You'd Imagine |author=Petrány, Máté  |date= 11 April 2013 |publisher= Jalopnik }}</ref><ref name="Jalopnik-2018-09-14">{{Cite episode |title=The Only Custom Built 4-Seat "DMC-24" DeLorean |episode-link= |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rzRUjJfKZLI |access-date= |series=Build of the Week |series-link= |author=<!--Not stated--> |work=Jalopnik |network=Youtube |date=14 September 2018 |season=1 |number=1 }}</ref><ref name="DeLoreanMuseum-DMC24sketches">{{cite web |url= https://www.deloreanmuseum.org/dmc-24-sketches.html |title= Dmc-24 sedan sketches |website= The DeLorean Museum |date= 2018 }}</ref><ref name="Jalopnik-2013-04-12">{{cite web |url= https://jalopnik.com/the-secret-history-of-the-delorean-that-became-a-lambor-472631160 |title= The Secret History Of The DeLorean That Became A Lamborghini Sedan |author=Petrány, Máté  |date= 12 April 2013 |publisher= Jalopnik }}</ref>
