I don't blame him for getting rid of that junk. Brand new this car was a big piece of junk. The low miles only indicates that you could barely drive the POS!!!

So the government wants cars that are inefficient, as far as emissions and fuel consumption are concerned, off the road...the clunker program is supposed to help accomplish this.

Here we have a Maserati that has been driven less than 20,000 miles in over 20 years (average of less than 1000 miles per year)...somehow, I don't think this vehicle has been contributing much to the smog or the excessive fuel consumption problems.

It will be rendered useless and be parted for salvage except the engine which needs to be purposely seized. Seems counter productive to me. A car in fine condition that should probably be preserved due to the low mileage and low production numbers...instead it will be destroyed. Kind of sad to me.

Now you know this car is not gonna make it past the dealer or one of his family members/friends! It was prolly cleaned up that same day and sent to the crib! LOL

John @ 6:30 clearly does not know anything about cars... A 1985 Maserati, less than 20K miles, wood and leather interior? That's a collector's item, not a clunker! That's the only problem I have with this government program--a lot of great classic older cars are going to be destroyed instead of preserved.

I have a 97 Lincoln Town Car I thought of trading in but, I think 1 jewel traded is enough. I only have 64.000 on mine.
