I was 9 when the first Delorean's rolled off the assembly line. At the time and for years after, the styling was seen as very sleek and stylish for a sports car.
What I didn't know back then was that, for all of it's good looks, it was a shitty ass performer. It was also expensive at $25K new back then. An '81 Vette was far cheaper and waaaaay faster than the Delorean, but the Delorean was supposed to be something of an exotic car of sorts back then so that's kinda how they justified the price.
Also, the Delorean's style was closer to the 1st-3rd generation Lotus Esprit than the Sentra you posted:
