That is awesome!

Over on Australian car message board Performance Forums, I made a post about an 'interesting' Ford Taurus up for sale on Ebay:
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/FORD-TAUR...item4cf769d86e
Within a few hours of making a suggestion that we should buy and destroy this automotive abomination, there were several pages of posts with PF members chipping in. After waiting for a couple of months, the car was finally purchased and picked up on Sunday morning by two forum members. I own roughly 3.5% of the car.
The car will meet a very violent death, preferably via large explosions and/or fire. We are currently discussing the ways we could go about ridding the automotive world of this hideous monstrosity:

The official thread is here, but you will need to register on the forum to be able to see it:

So does anyone have more ideas for creative ways to remove this car from the face of the earth?

This looks like a perfect time for some "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" quotes
Mac: It's not a jacket, it's a duster. It's like a jacket, only it's longer, thicker, and far more badass. I look like Lorenzo Lamas and women find it irresistable.
Dee: Well that part's just simply not true.Mac: WHY ARE YOU WEARING MY DUSTER WITH NO SHIRT?
Dennis: Because it’s the perfect combination, do I really have to explain this to you bro?
Mac: YES! Explain it to me.
Dennis: Are you kidding me? Black, leather duster. Tough, muscular dude. Underneath it, inside of it. Very sexual.Charlie Kelly: That would have been a lot better if I was wearing the duster dude.
Dennis Reynolds: Common dude it doesn't fit you. It's too big for you.
Charlie Kelly: That's why it's so awesome on me it's like "Why's that guy in giant jacket? What is he hiding?"Dee: They left us a list of demands.
Frank: What are you talking about!? That's their last will and testiment! That is NOT demands!!
Dee: It says at the top "List of Demands"!
Frank: Well whatever, it's their wishes and we have to honor them.
Dee: Oh we do? We do? We have to honor them? Okay, let's see Frank. Charlie's number one... "My ashes are to be made into a tea and dranken by everywan in bar."
Frank: Done!
Dennis: Ew, dammit. Gross. Fine, what else?
Dee: Mac's number one... "In lieu of a body which was most likely blown up in the most awesome way imaginable, I would like the duster to be burned and it's ashes buried in an unmarked grave somewhere by the river."
Dennis: Well that's crazy, I'm not gonna burn or bury the duster...

I suggest the Top Gear method.
1. Drop from a Crane
2. Drive a ________ through it pulling a caravan
3. Drop a piano on top
4. Blow any remaining parts up.

dissolve it in acid with a live webcam monitoring the slow process

make sure you document this thoroughly with video and pics. i'd suggest fire and explosions. perhaps your local military guard unit would like to take something to the tank range with them? or some firefighters or police need some practice on a car bomb...
many options. all good. thank you for killing that.![]()

I get the feeling this guy either carries a sword or a light saber wherever he goes.
in for epic youtube video of destruction

My school car club does this every year, it's good fun. Pay 5$ and get 30 seconds with your tool of choice on some trashy donated beater. Last one we did was a Fiesta painted like General Lee. I got in there with a claw hammer and smashed everything on the interior I could hit.![]()
GOOGLE IS YOUR FRIEND.
I like grocery getters.

Donate to Top Gear Australia. They have a bigger budget than you and will put this beast on international tv
#24
Oh man, so in for this.
I like the "pay for a minute with a sledgehammer" idea, especially for a charity.
#26
I think you should raise money for charity in the method of destruction.

on a related note, I am starting a charity to buy this man a jacket from the present century.

Is this the previous owner? He does look a little ashamed of his creation.
