Just saw this pic of a brand new 428i completely submerged in the Detroit flooding. Ouch.

raqautle · 08-12-2014, 06:52 PM

That's insane, looks like that person didnt close the trunk lol

OC40 · 08-12-2014, 07:45 PM

Whoa... That looks like a river.

USC2000 · 08-12-2014, 07:48 PM

Good thing he was driving with his scub gear on.

Fronzdan · 08-12-2014, 08:11 PM

Ugh, that's sad. Doesn't even look like he had a permanent plate yet.

And of course I have to quote Risky Business..."Who's the U-Boat Commander?"

ChrisMT79 · 08-12-2014, 08:14 PM

Well we had torrential down pours off and on all day yesterday. It was a record for most rain to fall in one day, ever. So it could have been a river, or it could have been 94 near the bridge to Canada (haha OC40)
Either way, I hope he wasn't racing an M6!

GOLFFRR · 08-12-2014, 08:21 PM

yikes!

Lol. There is more than a 4-Series under the Canadian bridge. There may even be two turntables and a broken 808...

Sadly we know there is a Morton under there somewhere as well. Probably a couple glow sticks and some used profalactics.

munch520 · 08-12-2014, 08:36 PM

Damn! Hope he has insurance on it from the outset!

Didn't we swim across once or twice?

The roads to my apartment complex were flooded bad. Had to slow down and creep through the pools of water.

If I lowered my car and added an intake, I would have been in some serious trouble. Can't believe that much rain caused flash flooding, in NJ this kind of rain is nothing.

Hopefully its totaled with gap insurance and they don't force them to fix it

ZilberGrau ZHP · 08-14-2014, 06:00 PM

I hope he doesn't have State Farm. Their auto policy excludes accidents.

LOL I believe it.

Since there's a rescue/recovery diver in that shot, I really hope the driver managed to get out in time....
