2011 Lexus IS-F Crushed In California Due To Owners Street Racing

[webby]

A Lexus IS-F being sacrificed for the sins of its owner. Seems someone was caught street racing by California authorities, and they didn't appreciate it. So they relieved the offender of one mighty red IS-F and then didn't send it to an auction or a good home, but straight to hell. Surprising the police didn't just keep it and use it as a bait car, or whatever.

I understand the emotional impact the police attempt to place on a driver with this methodology, and how it has potential to deter him/her from ever street racing again, but it's such a waste. Why not auction/sell the car? What kind of police department turns down money and would rather spend it on crushing a car?

Sad. They could have just given it to me. I wonder what wheels it had on it.
