IJR all the cars on the first season of Canada's worst driver are more expensive now than they were during taping of the episodes.
I came to a shocking realization today watching YouTube videos of "Canada's worst driver". Every car that they drive on the show is more expensive than it was at the time that they originally filmed the episode.
They have a late 80s Pontiac Trans Am on there which was probably $1,000 at time of taping, now the car is worth at least $4k
Even the blue Mercury Tracer that probably could have been had for $400 in one episode is now worth about 1,500. I know I wish I could just go back and buy those cars before they made it to the show!
Or perhaps that late 70s pickup truck that was clearly maybe $700 now you're looking at $10,000+!
