A casualty of the Boulder floods
One of my associates at work:
http://i366.photobucket.com/albums/o...ps67dcd373.jpg Looking inside it, it appears that the water was up to the top of the dash! I hope it doesnt get cleaned up and resold to an unsuspecting person....:cry: |
That's painful to see. :(
|
That's really unfortunate :(
Where was it parked, if you don't mind my asking? That's among the deepest I've heard of the water getting on roads (not counting underpasses and the like). |
Looks just like mine. That has to suck. Hope that his insurance is a stand up company and gives him full replacement value so he can get back in another.
|
Wow I've seen the news reports about the flooding in Colorado but man this is just sad to see :cry:
Yea it's just a car but man it a nice car that nature shouldn't do this to it. |

Back on topic though, I hope insurance takes care of it. |

That's pretty much up to your friend. If the car is repaired at any facility worth a squirt of piss, it will be reported and the title turned into a "flood title". If he brings it to Bubba's Diesel & Fried Chicken Auto Repair, no one will know unless they take the carpet out and see all the rust. Quote:

:cry: A snuff film of the crime committed by nature. When I look at the pic on the OP it looks like your at the morgue and they pulled the sheet away so you can identify the victim. |
**3 months from now**
Hey guyz look at the at sweet deal I got in an used BRZ!!! $19000 for a white '13 BRZ!!! I just have to go and pick it up from CO. Oh and the dealer was so nice that he even threw in new floor mats!! |

Sorry, this is indeed a sad situation, but that picture was perfect. |

Look on the bright side, now you know exactly where to park in the grass the next time it floods. |
I saw this on instagram the other day....sucks to see this happen to an owner as well as that area of the country.
|
I am not sure if this is legal or not, but maybe once its been claimed by the insurance company the VIN get posted so at least people on the forum don't get shafted. So sad to see, but glad the OP is safe and sound.

It would essentially be preventing you from potentially exposing some grade A fuckery, and that is not cool with ol' Anthony.

Those are the train tracks that run parallel to Arapahoe. The train tracks formed a dam. So that entire area was under about 4 feet of water. Quote:
On my other forum '914world' there is a sticky for dead VIN #s |

Go home, BRZ. |
1 out of 5 stars
Pro: The 3 layers of "breathable fabric" did not harm the finish of the car. Con: Did not "protect your car from the elements", as was advertised. Did not even protect against rain water. Total scam. Will not buy again. |
Where are all the other cars? And ask your friend if I can buy it back from the insurance company :D
|
Sucks. My house flooded in 2008. Lost pretty much everything we owned. I was going to stay one last night to keep the generator running for the sump pump but ended up leaving. If I had stayed I would have lost my WRX and probably would have needed to be rescued.

That's rough...I remember after Sandy seeing some pictures like this...one in particular of a 911 up on its nose in a house...you know that owner is probably still crying themself to sleep.
|
That'll buff out....
Surprised nobody brought up that gem already. Sorry about the car, OP. |
It's your can right now, if you want to you can post it.
If you car is in Colorado- it will get a flood brand. Colorado will not brand for hail or if the vehicle is older then 2000. Its not the insurance company that you have to worry about, they have to comply with the DOT/DOI- its what happens after the vehicle is sold. Unfortunately since there is no standard DMV across all states, its easy for the "bad guys" to wash title from one state and get a "clean" title in another. Quote:

I live in Boulder and when this whole thing started I found higher ground to hide my car!

|
Sorry to the owner but his BRZ was white and this was white too.

Yeah some body post the VIN so a future buyer doesn't get screwed. In fact, we should start a separate thread for all damaged VINs as done on other forums.

Drift car?
