Today on the Mike Martins Channel we're taking a look at one of the finest pieces of automotive machinery you're going to find here in Vancouver. 😂 Ladies and gentlemen, behold the Plymouth Acclaim. And according to my highly scientific evaluation, this beautiful automobile has a book value of approximately... $11. Yes, eleven Canadian dollars. Although I'm pretty sure if you showed up with $9 cash, the owner might negotiate. Maybe even $8 if you're a serious buyer. For my American viewers, we're probably talking about five U.S. dollars. Mexican pesos may also be considered. Let's take a walk around this magnificent automobile. Starting with the doors—they're unlocked. Unfortunately, that doesn't necessarily mean they're going to open. You may need to bring a coat hanger with you. Moving around the vehicle, we've got some beautiful hubcaps, classic styling and that old-school flat rear window you just don't see anymore. That's actually one of the reasons I stopped to film this car. When I was a kid, cars like this were everywhere. You'd see these old Chrysler and Plymouth sedans driving around all the time. Now they're slowly disappearing from the roads. This particular example has definitely seen better days. There's some surface rust, some questionable bodywork and even a little bit of water inside. But don't worry. The water is included FREE with the purchase. We're not charging extra for that. Considering this car has spent its life out here on the West Coast, though, the body isn't completely disintegrated like some older Canadian cars that have spent decades dealing with heavy road salt and brutal winters. Could you actually get this thing running again? I have absolutely no idea. Would it be worth restoring? That's another question entirely. Maybe the scrap value is worth considerably more than the automobile itself. But there's something nostalgic about seeing these old cars sitting around. These weren't exotic automobiles. They weren't Ferraris or Lamborghinis. They were ordinary North American cars that regular families drove to work, took grocery shopping and parked in their driveways. And now they're becoming increasingly unusual to see. So here's my complete Mike Martins automotive review: Book value: $11. Negotiated price: possibly $8. Water inside: FREE. Doors: questionable. Classic 1980s/1990s styling: priceless. What do you guys think? Would you spend $11 on this beautiful piece of machinery? Let me know in the comments.
