What purpose does the NFT serve when there is a physical object to back it?

NFT to represent ownership or something like that, since they aren't road legal they probably won't have titles. As for actual purpose, it is of course marketing.
Side note: it looks like they tried to sell a DeLorean DMC-12 via NFT last year, but didn't actually sell it.
This is a brand licensing company, not a car production company, thus the vagueness of what the vehicles actually are.

Well, you see, the physical object can be funged, while the NFT cannot!

So after it disappears into the 1950s in two streaks of flames you can claim you still own it of course..

The ability for the manufacturer to get a cut from resales.
And whatever they bundle to force the above.
