So in reality I lose $9k or drive something else if my car is killed... that doesn't seem right because people want to trash something rather than take car of it, despite the fact that they know it's rare. Also, it makes me sad because when I see another rare car get killed/abused that means that there's one less car for someone who would have LOVED it, and cherished it. That sucks for the guy who saved up just enough to buy a rare car, but by the time he saved up, the market went up more because they got a lot rarer due to people mistreating them. I feel sorry for that guy.

Do your research... mr2's are not depreciating because they're owned by people who modify them, they are depreciating because they're old. very old.....
