    I dunno. I must be genetically programmed to really dig stuff like this. I wish those guys would blow something up every week.

    @Turbineguy - now with reheat!!: I'm pretty sure they do... I can't think of many episodes that DON'T involve them blowing something up.

    I had the opportunity to watch this but didn't. Too busy having dinner with folks. Fear not, I'll eventually buy the season on DVD.

    Also, nephew said, "That's not a Camry. It's a wagon."

    Me: "It's a Camry wagon. Not terribly common, but a tidy small midsize wagon for the anonymous suburbanite in you."

    Nephew: "Ew? Pass."

    ANY other Camry. This one, at least, has the saving grace of being a wagon.

    This is a bit dated, but still neat.

    Though, I can think of many a vehicle which should have gotten it over a Camry estate.

    I bet there would be a lot less complaints if this was how the federal car buyback program was to work: Hand over your car, get a big check, watch from the bunker as it's reduced to corn flake sized chips.

    I was just linked to this on YouTube, and was gonna show it off in the CSRSL. Well, never mind then! Nice. Suddenly, the little Kia just... goes away.

    These guys have more fun than law should allow. Except there should never, ever be a law passed preventing them from having this much fun.

    Finally they used a car that not single person cares about. No rust free Fiat X1/9 destruction, no vintage Japanese iron destruction. Even Jalopnik doesn't have a Ford Aspire Fanatic. Mythbusters needs a new rule, only destroy 10+ year old Korean cars, name one that someone would care about?

    @P161911 Zinc Level Memeber: How about these Kias from the '60s and '70s: К360:



    Also a K600 a larger three wheeled truck, but I cannot seem to find a picture of that. I saw those oddities when I was a kid in Poland.

    @mzs: That's a truck, not a car, so my original statement stands. There isn't a single Korean car over 10 years old that anyone would car about.

    In most US states, technically that's a, gasp, motorcycle.


    Erk.


    You mean there are Korean cars which are more than ten years old which are still at least rollable?!

    @sub-$3K luxury rides are expendable: The last Aspire was sold as a 1997 model, so unless they filmed this 2 years ago, there WAS at least one.
