right I think that's just made up does anyone have any proof? I could see maybe the TA cause a normal person might not think its anything special.....but a GNX cmon and what dealership would allow that I would have just offered them like 5k for it outta my pocket instead of letting it c4c

Re: C4C fallout

Are you kidding me? There's were 100's of really nice cars worth way more than the 3-4k offered with C4C demolished. I saw a really nice vette than was running beautifully when they dumped the seizure fluid in the crank and blew her up. Watch some of the UTube vids on C4C, it brings a tear to the eye.

Re: C4C fallout

Well I've saved two Trans-AM's from the junk yard or the cash for clunkers program. I'd save more but I've only got so much money to work with.

Re: C4C fallout

The really sad fallout is what it ripped off from the American taxpayer!!!http://www.glennbeck.com/content/art...cle/196/32528/

Americans are getting it shoved up their tailpipe from both ends. Both losing some great cars AND paying over $20,000 for each new car purchased.
You do the Obama math and see what you get. Thank goodness he's only the president!

If I worked at a dealer and some guy wanted to trade in a GNX, I'd personally write him a cheque from my own bank account for double the cash back.

Re: C4C fallout

*plays Taps for the thousand Camaro's that fell to C4C*

I saw a semi-decent third gen Camaro that was C4C'd at the Stockton Pick n' Pull a few months ago. . .lot of engine work seemed to have been done to it. Was sad as f***

Ok, as for the GNX. . .That's either a bold faced lie, it was wrecked, or the owner was a complete and utter idiot and didn't know what they had. . .

A TTA wouldn't have met the MPG required to be turned in for C4C, so I don't believe that one.

Re: C4C fallout

It was really sad to see a lot of the cars that got turned in for c4c, they dont deserve that kinda treatment...but i guess on the bright side it makes our cars worth a little more once obama is gone haha maybe even before then
