Lol! In high school, there was a guy who bought a Chrysler Conquest (the pre-3000GT) with a supposed 75K miles. (Can you imagine his insurance premiums?)... he also turned up the boost, and the engine completely destroyed itself about two months later in the school parking lot as he was having RevFest97.
When the insurance company checked the numbers, about to pay for a new engine, they found his was a replacement with somewhere up near 200K on it!!! They then scrapped the car, assuming lots of other things were suspect, and with his check he bought a non-turbo totally-authentic Honda Civic... ah, we all learn sometime, I suppose...
