Miles Overview
The DMC-12 is the stainless-steel coupe that became an icon the moment it hit the screen. The rear-engine layout and lightweight construction make it feel planted and eager through corners. The cabin is snug and driver-focused, with a low seating position that puts you right in the action. The DMC-12 was a single trim, so every car got the same stainless body, gullwing doors, and rear-engine layout. Its 2.9L V6 makes 130 horsepower and sends it to the rear-wheel drive through a five-speed manual, which means you have to work the engine to keep up with traffic. The automatic transmission was the only major option, and it dulls the driving experience enough that most enthusiasts prefer the manual.
