jpu471 Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 Among the list of unusual clunkers under the federal cash-for-clunkers program: 1997 Aston Martin DB7 Volante: 1988 Aurora Cars Ltd. (Shelby cobra replica) 1992 BMW 850i 1987 Buick GNX 1987 1987 Excalibur Autos Phaeton 1990 Laforza 1985 Maserati Quattroporte 1999 Mercedes C43 AMG 1992 GMC Typhoon 1997 Rolls-Royce Continental R Maybe the Dealership salespeople are the bigger fools. They at least should have known the approximate value of these cars to prevent an uninformed owner from scrapping a $10K (or more) vehicle in exchange for only $4500. 34 <nobr style="font-weight: normal; font-size: 100%; color: darkgreen;" id="itxt_nobr_2_0">Corvette</nobr> convertibles also went to the shredder with "glassed" engines.

Marylander Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 My 99 vette with it's AT would have qualified (the 99 manual didn't since it eeked out just a bit better gas mileage). While I never would have done it, of course, I would have loved to see the look on a dealer's face if I tried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjwvette Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 Why would the dealer inform someone if they have a chance to sell a new ride? :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
