at least the rotary engine is about the easiest engine out there to dry out when submerged.

How is this a freaking joke? its not different then that cash for clunkers sighting. Just sharing it with you guys what i found.
I did not take the screen shot, someone else did and posted it up, so I shared it here.
Here is the original source http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fb...356305&theater

Hope the owner is safe.

you really comparing this to cash for clunkers?
clue- it has nothing to do with the CAR, it has to do with the people who lost their lives, the property damaged, the nuclear fallout

but im wrong- this is just like seeing a FC sticking out of a dumpster

There is absolutely NOTHING wrong with this thread? How is this in ANY way offensive? Its a FC in water...had he not said it was from the recent Tsunami, none of you would care.

It would have been bad if he'd posted pics of bodies in the water....back off guys. Seriously, why take it to heart?

i think his inventory will be low very soon, and alot of J Spec goodies will never be seen again.... probably going to be alot less good J Spec cores in the following years or months.....

People are looking this thread the wrong way. If this wasn't something that was happening right now, none of you would say a thing about this. He isn't saying "who cares about the people, that poor car!" He's just pointing out that a nice FC was lost also. So just calm yourselves and lets get along. No need to post a "Poor Japan" thread here, theres already one in the lounge.

With that being said, that was a pretty slick looking car. I bet quite a few nice cars were lost.
