Aye, I went to get 2 rear window switches for the 280C and a the rear seat vacuum pump for the locks of the 300E.
I mean, I was expecting to be damage to the cars, but some people do not care to close the doors after they take what they want. Then it rains and makes everything soggy and nasty. It was a bit sickening to see an M103 with water filled to the brim in the valve cover-less cylinder head. Sure the engine may be toast from some mechanical failure, but still.
I dunno, I am over it now, but it was a downer for sure.
Just had to vent.
In reply to the new Mazdas being crushed. Last year Mazda held this Zoom Zoom Live event where anyone, after filling out some forms, could drive any of the cars. (RX-8, 3, 6, CX-9, Miata) Since these were new cars that were driven very hard by people with varying skill level, they crushed each car afterwards OR used them for crash testing. (Thats what one employee said...)
A lot of the manual RX-8s had ruined clutches or syncros by the end of it all.
Maybe that was enough to crush for them? Scare of a lawsuit of a new owner found out the car was used to abuse when it was new?
