        I remember hearing about that. I guess when they load those things on the ship they don't lash them down like they do cars on a road-bound transporter (probably cause large freighters are relatively stable even in heavy sea conditions). Those cars look like they've been tossed around like Hot Wheels. I recall that when that ship sank, it came to rest on the ocean floor on its side.....which explains the mish-mash of cars.

          Is it just me or do I not see any BMW's being pulled up in those pics? All I seem to see are Volvo's.

              wait is that an X5 i cant tell but the rims are kind of making me think otherwise
