Default This guy should be tried for murder.

You know those "bash a car for charity" fundraisers? Well this school decided to try that on a 944.

I don't understand. They destroy the car for $55 when they could've sold it for a few thousand??

If it was a Jewish mission I would probably understand...what too soon?

Really though, adults encouraging kids to smash up cars is just beyond stupid.

Start tweeting what the parts value of the car was on his feed. Fool could have made a lot more than $55.

i think though, if it is for charity I doubt they bought it. someone would have given it to them to bash up.

No doubt, but teaching kids how to take it apart is far more valuable than teaching them how to smash up a car.

Dammit!
I would've taken the front badge panel for 55 bucks!
The wheels I'd have paid at least 100 more if they came with tires.
The brake calipers I'd have paid $40 apiece at least....I can keep going.
What a waste!
If they'd actually made decent money from it I'd be less annoyed, but seriously, the front badge panel goes for like $200 on ebay. I've seen the BADGE go for $50!
