Saw this article about a infamous Beetle, now on display in a museum in the US.

Amazing that the cops didn't scrap it once he was executed, and it was no longer needed as evidence.

that poor bug keeps getting passed around
it sold in the mid 90s for about $30k US in that state
interior is pretty well gutted

last i heard the lead singer of korn owned it

Why would anyone want to buy something like that?
Is it really a museum people or just a sick sideshow attraction?
