A casualty of the Boulder floods

One of my associates at work:


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....

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

Yea it's just a car but man it a nice car that nature shouldn't do this to it.

I have to ask. This looks like the BRZ which parks at the Boulder BATC campus correct? I know that spot got hit hard and I recognize the corner/car cover. In that case, we're co-workers!

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.

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.
