With regular electronics you'd have a point.

But the thing with cars is that there is a giant aftermarket.

Basically, if someone buys a new one at the top, they sell their used car to someone else, who sells their car to someone else, who sells their car to someone else, ... until one old mangled and polluting car at the bottom gets scrapped.
