VIDEO - AWESOME or AWFUL: Not ONE, But TWO Lexus SEMA Cars Get CRUSHED

Last week some photographs emerged of not one, but TWO Lexus SEMA show cars spotted in what appeared to be a junkyard. Well, that wasn't merely a coincidence, folks.

As you'll see in the video below, Brian Fox of Fox Marketing Cars walks us through just exactly what goes on when there are pre-production or one-off show cars. They get crushed.

Unfortunately, some perfectly good parts go to waste; however, some may say this is a good thing as they never appreciated the cars to begin with.

That said, which side are you on? Are these cars getting crushed AWESOME or AWFUL?


We head to LKQ in York Haven, Pa. to watch the once twin turbo'ed Fox Marketing IS F, and Procharged IS C meet their doom in the crusher. They have VIN numbers but federal law says these cars must be crushed. Just Google the cars to see what they looked liked before, and listen on the dyno.

This law makes no sense at all. It's just one of many stupid laws out there. Some idiots made it up for their own hidden benefits and care less about others.

And btw, such a law doesn't only cover Lexus, it's for any other car.

Brian Fox Marketing created the "spindle grille" Lexus is so proud of. The spindle grille was put on a Lexus CT show car about three years ago. Maybe Lexus wanted that car crushed so they could take credit for the grille. Not hating, but this grille is the future face of all Lexus autos. Give thanks to Brian Fox.
