These YouTubers took a tour of a supercar graveyard that left them heartbroken.

This forest in China is packed full of iconic cars, from Corvettes to a Can-Am Commander.

What’s especially shocking is many of them are brand new and have never been driven.

It turns out this is where cars seized by Chinese police go before they’re sent somewhere even worse.

China’s supercar graveyard

YouTuber Ash from China UNCUT gave a tour of a surprisingly luxurious supercar graveyard hidden in a forest in China.

The impressive cars in this lineup rival China’s notorious EV graveyard.

There are muscle cars, off-roaders, and untouched Bentleys lying amongst the greenery.

Unlike Germany’s classic car graveyard, these are all fairly modern, including the likes of an Audi R8 that has clearly never been driven.

Another highlight from the abandoned lot is a Chevrolet Corvette and a Porsche Panamera Turbo, which would’ve cost about $300,000 new.

There’s also a Can-Am Commander, which was designed with a different kind of off-roading adventure than it’s currently experiencing.

An Aston Martin Vantage sits covered in vines, while a Bentley Flying Spur shows signs of an attempted break-in.

Why are brand-new supercars sent to their graves?

Several of the cars have signs in their windows naming now-defunct car dealerships or displaying notices from the police.

These cars were all seized from criminals and will sit here until they’re sent to their final destination: the scrapyard.

It turns out criminals often have expensive taste in cars; recently UK police seized $1.3 million worth of supercars from a secret chop shop.

This means the beautiful cars they acquire often end up abandoned in graveyards like this.

Unless the police have a better idea, like the Turkish force that transformed the luxury vehicles they seized into police cruisers.

What really saddened the YouTuber was seeing the Corvette.

He’d never seen one in China before, and for this to be his first sighting was a pity.

“I’ve seen enough for one day, my heart’s breaking,” he said.
