Then go buy one. You are not going to see a whole line of cars extinct from this program. To qualify you have to have had the car registered and insured for over 1 year which rules out a ton of people who would like to do the program.

I think people are looking at the cars and getting caught up with their exterior appearance and thinking it is a "nice" car that is being traded in. I am sure all of the cars in the pictures have a ton of miles and some issues.

That Aurora in the video looked like a nice car until they said it had 240k miles. I wouldn't drive a GM with that many miles. Others probably have tranny issues, or other items. Car has to be in running shape, doesn't have to run or drive well.
