93 of the first Dodge Vipers ever built are being crushed

Chrysler is in the midst of having 93 first-generation Vipers destroyed. The cars were originally donated to schools around the US for use in educational programs. These preproduction Vipers were some of the first that were ever stitched together. Now Chrysler wants them dead.Why? Blame the lawyers. These cars were never meant to be street-legal. They were built without emission control systems or speed limiters. You can see where this is going. At least two of the cars managed to make it to public roads and—big shock—were involved in accidents. Since Chrysler still technically owns the cars, the company is liable for any damages. The resulting lawsuits have cost the automaker millions of dollars.
