I'm guessing that the first few times a mechanic gets to do this to

After years of getting filthy and frustrated making old clunkers

Yep. I can see the grin on his face as he watches a 1970 Corvette
with 2 4-barrel carbs go through the death-rattle.

OK, now it's your turn to cite someone who actually traded in such a
car for a $4500 rebate on a new, uh, um, Honda Civic?

Eventually, probably after several court cases and FISA requests, the
administration will release the makes and models of vehicles traded
in to bolster the auto industry, and we'll be able to tell with
precision.
As of right now, the effects, in general and in specific, are being
kept under wraps by the government.

Here's a list of eligible Corvettes:

1990 Chevrolet Corvette5.7L 8cyl 4A RWDPassenger Car
1991 Chevrolet Corvette5.7L 8cyl 4A RWDPassenger Car
1992 Chevrolet Corvette5.7L 8cyl 4A RWDPassenger Car
1993 Chevrolet Corvette5.7L 8cyl 4A RWDPassenger Car
1994 Chevrolet Corvette5.7L 8cyl 4A RWDPassenger Car

Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.
