LT1 C4 Corvette, Crown Vic LTD with 4,500 miles on the clock , E34 530i M Sport, MkIV Supra (I almost died at that one with the 2JZ revving to 8000 RPM without oil in the engine), Maserati Biturbo Spyder, clean Foxbody Mustang GT, W124s... the list of great cars goes on. And I can't stop watching the destruction. Won't someone think of the enthusiasts?

I can't remember if it was on Jalopnik or Motor Trend, but someone had the full list. I remember seeing Aston DB7's and BMW 8's on there. Makes me sad just thinking about it...

we had to destroy a clean old XJS V12 at my dealer back in the day. But besides that beauty, we had around 200+ beat to shit and junk ass domestic trucks, cars, and SUV's that weren't worth anything but scrap.

How did they even get the Biturbo to run period? That should've been a celebration of the cars awakening, not a slaughtering.

This seems odd to me because even the worst C4, the worst JZA80, and most Biturbos command more than $4500, even trade-in value.

Exactly—much more, even! People are so damned lazy and stupid. Not to mention DB7, GNX, and Bently Continental R...

Just a Supra rolling shell is worth well in excess of $7000...

I may have done one of the two SHO's killed, and recorded it on my potatoe (along with others on my channel)

Dude, just reading that was enough to make me angry, I can't possibly watch those videos....

Of all the policies I disagree with in the last 6 years, Cash for Clunkers is easily the most hurtful.

Oh, wow. That was painful. How long were you having flashbacks for?

And not just the people, but the *dealers* they traded them in to! Now THEY should know better, even if the people didn't! I mean, don't they have a black book?

JayZAyEighty thinks C4+3=C7 > dogisbadob 01/21/2014 at 14:55

Exactly. A black book of evil, maybe.

Not long. It was a rusted out automatic with 200k+ on it.

Maybe, but at least in regards to the expensive cars, that's the dealers' fault that should've known better about these cars being worth way more than $4500 even in deplorable condition.

Now the Mark VII LSC that was mint... THAT was a loss.

Da fuq? Did they just seize the engine on purpose?

Oh, the horrors you have missed. The Cash For Clunkers program was to kickstart the auto industry and "help the environment." To do so, they replaced the engine's oil with a thick solidifying liquid that would seize the engine. Many great cars were destroyed to get $4,500 off a hybrid, and now sit in junkyards, rotting. Terrible stuff.

I knew what the whole idea was about. We had the same program over here. Only the cars were supposed to get crushed, no seizing of the engine needed. In the end only the titles were voided, and the cars... Well nobody ever bothered to check if really all of them got crushed.

You sick bastard, why would you do that?

That is directed to the morons who sold the cars under that program

The dealers that accepted those cars under that program

And the person who posted it here and reminded me how pissed off Ca$h4Clunkers made me.

And I have another gesture to the government bureaucratic !@#@$%^$% who put that forward. [rage]

I've done that before. I once watched one that was the exact same as my truck. Ranger with a 3.0, and auto. IT ONLY HAD 50,000 MILES ON IT AND IT WAS AN 01 LIKE MINE. It died after like 30 seconds. I was so depressed. I'm still in therapy.

Such a waste of a great car with no modern replacement. I can only imagine the horror.

I found the video I was thinking of, and it's worse than I thought. It was a 98-99 with 35K!!!!

1) How can anyone who did that to a car sleep at night?

2) Why is the guy holding the throttle not crying?

3) THINK OF THE ENTHUSIASTS!

Also, surely there are better ways to disable a car than that...
