    That actually happened? That Doesn't make me happy. I'd hate to see a perfectly fine muscle car end up in the compactor because of that.


    Well that's very nice of Tom to do that. It's like I said before, if Hollywood and that you said keeps it up, those 32 cars could one day end up being the last examples of their kind.

    I'm talking about how they are being replaced with 4 door only options, The only new 2 door SUVs that I know of are the Jeep and Land Rover. Hence the last sentence, "...it was surrendered to a 4 door SUV, as were most 2 door SUVs."

    What, are 95 now gone?

    Because that would be as endangered as the other cars here.

    The government wanted to decrease the number of polluting and thirsty cars. It was not their fault that unique, classic or low mileage cars were traded in by dumbass people and accepted by dumbass dealers.
    Example:

    Okay, this has legitimately made me sad. I'm assuming the worst happened, this beautiful car in great condition was destroyed. :(

    If it was for sale right now and I had the money, I'd definitely buy it.

    I now want to know more about this whole cash for clunkers thing. Is it still around?

    Idk how effective cash for clunkers even was since the cars in the worst shape are usually owned by poorer people that can't afford anything better

    Many awful cars belong to people who bought them new and simply want to drive them until they fall apart, then replace them with new cars.

    I'm now advising such a Brit with a 2002 Seat Ibiza with electrical problems about buying a new diesel crossover. Current contenders are the Mazda CX-3, Peugeot 3008 and Nissan Qassqai.
    (All have manufacturer scrappage schemes - the guy will get £2000 from Nissan, £2500 from Peugeot or £4000 from Mazda for his £150 Seat).

    Yes, and many poor people ended up with no car at all because the old one got traded in and the new one got taken away after they failed to pay for it.
    Why not a petrol conventional car? Almost same fuel consumption and better for environment and public health.
