There are definitely some vehicles in there that shouldn’t have been. What a disgusting campaign.

Some notables:  
-1 1987 GNX  
-1 1997 Aston Martin DB7 Volante  
-1 2000 Ford Lightning  
-23 1994 and 1995 Ford Lightnings  
-1 2008 Mustang (???)  
-6 '80’s Masteratis  
-1 1992 Typhoon  
-1 20th Anniversary Trans Am  
-1 1997 Rolls Royce Continental R  
-2 2006 Roush Stg. 3 F-150’s  
-1 1985 TVR 280i  
-2 2008 Foose F-150’s  
-56 BMW E24 6-Series ☹

I don’t know what kind of condition these were all in, but they had to be running and driving cars to qualify for the credit.

I’m thinking they weren’t. My guess is they ran and were registered but had severe damage. Or people are retarded. Either one.

Definitely retarded.

This shit really pisses me off. I bet some of those mechanics that were in charge of putting that shit in the engine to destroy it were fucking sick when they had to do it.

I can see turning in a clapped out Mustang or Camaro or something. Is an 86 Iroc with frame rot really that valuable? Eh, probably not. But a Maserati? A GNX? An Aston-Martin? The Rolls? Those people HAD to be absolutely monstrously retarded. Good grief.
