Well... It was a V10. The answer is in the question.

Kidding...

Reminds me of the cash for clunkers videos from years ago. I don't understand the purpose of intentionally destroying an engine like that. Even if it was at EOL, they've just made a bigger mess to clean up for themselves. What a waste.

Good thing that motor died when it did, looks like another 30 seconds and it would be a garage full of dead meat heads
