Yea they are a real mess, Most of these cars are just water damaged but some of the worst cars are still being pulled out as the waters go down here.
Some of these cars can be seen if you look carefully in the videos on youtube.
I have a few more pics for you all,The Skyline that you have seen all twisted is the turbo model and was insured, the owner (a young chick) broke down to tears after seeing what was left of her pride and joy.
I was gonna get some of what used to be a Black Subaru WRX roughly 2004 model that had roof squashed down to the seats front wheels had been bent outwards front mount intercooler ripped clean off it was messy but owner picked it up after lunch as it was not Insured! Looked like it had atleast 10k spent on it!!
Please spare a thought for all the people involved in this disaster families of lost ones etc, Luckily I was at work when it all happened and my wife and kids safe at home.
