That is truly sad.  The salt water damage would make everything in the car suspect .  It would have to be full race at this point down to the tub.  Not sure what else you could do.

The downforce from those rear wings is incredible!

Who in their right mind would leave a brand new Porsche parked at the house when the Nor'easter blew in? Amazingly stupid people out there

The same person that would buy a house next to the water on a barrier island that is actually a sand bar.

The same people who will want to be bailed out by the same government that they don't want to pay any taxes to or have meddle in their lives otherwise? [Image: icon107.gif]

I never thought that I would agree politically with Larry, but he is spot on.

Seems everyone is a hard-core capitalist until the chips are down. As has been said repeatedly, we seem to privitize profit and socialize loss for these evil scummy corporations.

Pretty sweeping generalization guys!

What about those that dutifully pay their taxes, have the income to buy a beach house, pay their insurance (including flood insurance which is mandated)?  Seems like they've privatized their losses to me already and are simultaneously supporting the coffers of our politicians who are as greedy and self-serving as any corporation.

It is risky to build in some of these areas.  Lest I forget, did the government not OK construction there?  Oh silly me, it isn't as though they aren't benefitting from hefty real estate taxes or anything.....

They are still stupid for building in a flood zone.

And even "stupider" for selecting that ugly color. Big Grin
