They don't care, the real money comes from the TV company selling advertising. Nobody cares about what the cars cost or sell for.

ok maybe it was just mike on another show he did


Mike talks about trying to make money all the time on the show but it is just blabber. If you pay attention to how much money they spend it is obvious that they don't turn a profit on the cars. They make money from advertising, the cars are just entertainment. It would be a good deal to buy a car from that show. I've seen several that they have fixed up that I'd be interested in.
