In the "valve speaks" thread it says that the player driveable vehicles do not take damage. They made this decision because damaging them did not add to the gameplay.

However, since the engine supports multiple hit boxes and you can code a reaction for each hit box, there's no reason to think that you couldn't make a vehicle that explodes when you shoot the gas tank (although that's not really very realistic), or loses control when you damage a tire, or the guns stop functioning if you shoot them too much.
 
I really don't get how vehicular damage "doesn't add to the gameplay", it would make HL2 that much more realistic!
 
These vehicles would be awesome, just add weapons and your good to go... :cheers:

this is true, have you noticed in other games you can collide with a wall at 150mph, and neither the vehicle or you will take damage? I'd like to see someone fly out the front of a buggy while the buggy folds into itself from the force.
