Hmmm,
I just saw this video on Jalopnik.com and I am horrified. Here's a late model S80 Volvo getting its engine killed.

I wonder how many Mercedes are meeting their doom this way. Many w126 sedans and coupes as well as w140's qualify under the cash for clunkers program. Our tax money is being used to kill cars and subsidize cheap plastic cars for consumers that can't afford gas and for American car manufacturers to keep putting out way more cars than we need! This is really wasteful!!!
