That actually occurred to me but the vendor (who apparently specializes in these type of flips) had listings that specifically said the car had been recovered from flood, stripped, cleaned, inspected, etc, and they all come with a (albeight short) warranty. This included replacing all the carpets and seat covers.

None of the cars were submerged, as a"flood car" is any car where water reaches floor level.

Again, wouldn't buy it myself without some tremendous discount (like 50% off regular used price) but I've personally owned cars that had that much water in them because of stupid teenage tricks and, in the short term at least, they were fine.
